Manual Thermal Evaluation begins with a review of the scientific understanding of body heat, and the clinical significance of changes in surface temperature. The author then proceeds, point-by-point, to provide the reader with tools to transform their hands into sensitive diagnostic instruments. Each area of the body is surveyed, from the cranium, face and neck to the thorax, abdomen, pelvis and posterior visceral projections.
This third volume in Jean-Pierre Barral's series about Visceral Manipulation explores the osteopathic implications of the thoracic cage and its contents.
