Infos

Harmonic technique is a classical osteopathic technique which has been 'rediscovered', researched and further developed for use in modern practice by Eyal Lederman. It is a gentle and safe form of manual therapy, with a minimal risk of adverse reaction, that can be used clinically to treat a wide range of conditions. This practical text describes the fundamentals of this important technique and explains how it may be used in practice. The biomechanical and physiological bases of the technique are also presented. It is illustrated with over 50 photographs, providing a step-by-step guide. The accompanying video gives a detailed demonstration of the applications of harmonic technique together with spoken instructions on how to perform them. The book and the video together provide a thorough introduction to this important technique.
