Complementary Therapies in Rehabilitation by Carol M. Davis Pdf

This book examines the recent paradigm shift taking place in rehabilitation. Carol M. Davis, EdD, PT takes a careful look at concepts such as therapeutic presence, holism, energy and the mind/body connection and how they can be used to enhance current rehabilitation practice. Dr. Davis and her contributors help to clarify the changes taking place regarding how health and illness are viewed and the choices professionals are making in the treatment decisions for their patients. Traditional methods of treatment are being re-examined as more holistic approaches to healthcare offer alternative options. These complementary methods are introduced and described by experienced professionals who have successfully integrated these techniques into their practice. The book addresses the development of each method, its application and approaches, as well as providing examples for each. Developed for the student and the health professional, the book is invaluable in helping to bridge the gap between complementary and traditional medicine.

Alternative Medicine and Rehabilitation by Stanley F. Wainapel,Dr. Avital Fast, MD Pdf

Wainapel and Fast, both with Albert Einstein College of Medicine/ Montefiore Medical Center in New York, point out the irony of the speciality of physical medicine and rehabilitation having been considered a form of alternative medicine 50 years ago. Rather than being a practice manual or comprehensive survey of alternative medicine, this volume reflects the evolution of alternative medicine to an integrative/complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) seeking to combine the best of both worlds. Most of the 19 contributed chapters offer evidence-based treatments of such adjuncts to rehabilitation medicine for neurologic and other disorders as chiropractic, massage, yoga, meditation, biofeedback, hypnosis, acupuncture, nutritional therapy, and magnet therapy. Others discuss recent NIH-funded research, specific CAM treatment approaches, payment for CAM services, and professional literature issues. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Complementary Therapies for the Body, Mind and Soul by Marcelo Saad Pdf

Complementary Therapies (CT) refers to the practices, products, or health systems that are outside the realm of conventional medicine, used to treat disease or to promote health and well-being. Defining CT is difficult, because the field is very broad and constantly changing. The title of this book includes the words body, mind, and soul. The body and the mind (and their reciprocal relations) have been extensively studied scientifically. What about the soul? The book brings some points about this new ground in CT. We hope you find in the present work the sincere desire to collaborate with the dissemination of knowledge. May this book be useful and pleasant to you.
