[Buch] Osteopathie: Gezieltes Lösen von Blockaden

Symptom-Based Diagnosis: The Rome IV criteria emphasize diagnosing functional gastrointestinal disorders (FGIDs) in children and adolescents based on symptoms rather than the exclusion of organic diseases. The phrase „no evidence of an inflammatory, anatomic, metabolic, or neoplastic process“ has been removed, allowing for selective or no testing to support a positive diagnosis.

Explore the benefits of the pedal pump technique combined with myofascial release in reducing lower limb fluid volume. Learn how this osteopathic approach can aid conditions like peripheral edema and venous stasis.

This systematic review and meta-analysis highlights the effectiveness of manual therapy in improving ankle range of motion and stability among older adults. An average increase of 11.3 degrees in ankle mobility and enhancements in monopodal and static balance were observed. While the study supports the use of manual therapy, it emphasizes the need for further research on dosage parameters and calls for individualized treatment approaches in clinical practice to optimize outcomes for older patients.

This study delves into the growth dynamics of the craniocervical junction (CCJ) from birth to 18 years, using advanced geometric modeling techniques. By analyzing age-related changes, covariation patterns, and suture closure, the research provides crucial insights into the coordinated growth between skull and neck structures. These findings could significantly enhance early diagnosis and the development of patient-specific models for treating abnormalities in craniofacial and cervical spine development.
