In this extensive revision and expansion of the book, The Art of Polarity Therapy--A Practitioner's Perspective, the author has added to the theory behind each bodywork session and provided a much-needed expert perspective on the aspect of Polarity Therapy known as Structural Balancing.
Polarity's roots in Osteopathy and Chiropractic are nowhere more evident than in the structural work that Dr. Randolph Stone included in his system of healing. Polarity's structural work is uniquely effective due to the added component of energetic interaction. The author reviews the history of manual medicine and the importance of always addressing the parts in relation to the whole, and introduces new perspectives to Stone's original work by exploring structure as identity, relationship and history. This new edition is of immense value to all Polarity Therapists who seek a deeper understanding of the relationship of energy, structure and function.
