Book Synopsis Equine Osteopathy by : Dominique Giniaux

Download or read book Equine Osteopathy written by Dominique Giniaux. This book was released on 2014-06-02. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The lay public is probably less familiar with the concept of osteopathy than the concept of chiropractics. Let it be stated that both acknowledge the pathological effect of vertebral lesions (subluxations) upon the functioning of the nervous system. Osteopathy, however, may practice a different type of manipulation. It concerns itself with the whole structure -- that is to say, vertebrae, but also all other joints, muscles, ligaments, and fascia. Osteopathy holds that if the structure is blocked in one of its components, health will be jeopardized, since the flux of energy which pervades the organism will be impaired. It is a "manual" medicine, where the healer (physician, veterinarian) is "listening" to his/her patient. Hence the title of this book, "What the Horses Have Told Me." Enthusiastic, curious, and brilliant, Dr. Giniaux is a researcher who passionately tries to understand, not only with his brain but also with his heart and senses, the exhilarating phenomenon called "life."
