Product Description
This evidence-based, fully referenced text offers a wealth of information on the use of osteopathic techniques for pediatric disorders -- from newborns to adolescents. It discusses normal development, physiology, and anatomy of the systems, and it explores conditions and diseases of childhood as well as the rationale for osteopathic treatment. Practical and comprehensive, it offers an osteopathic approach to understanding the development of the cranium; the interrelatedness of posture, movement, and cognition; and the process of labor and birth.

Product Reviews:

Osteopathic Approach to Children - Excellent and Practical
Written by a leader in the field, who not only writes but also "does!" (that is actually sees patients and has hands-on experience!) - this is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand Osteopathy from the ground up - that is: anatomy, anatomy and anatomy. The correlations, backed by excellent pictures (even though 'only' black and white) and clear organization of the book make this an excellent read and reference text. The information is useful beyond the pediatric age -group, since much of the anatomical correlations are also very helpful in the adult. Very well written, referenced up-to-date by the time of publication, and the overall approach are refreshing for anyone who wants to familiarize herself/himself with a deeper understanding of what osteopathic manpulative medicine can do and is. Absolutely worth the money!

a must for all Osteopathic Pediatricians ( howe9 )
A well-written and well-organized book. Contains much info not included elsewhere in Osteopathic or allopathic texts. A must-have for all Osteopathic pediatricians.
