Reading List

The Anatomy Trains: Myofascial Meridians for Manual and Movement Therapies by Thomas W. Myers, Leon Chaitow, Deane Juhan. Churchill Livingstone; (October 9, 2001); ISBN: 0443063516. In depth look at how fascial lines pull us into patterns. Myers is one of the best thinkers and communicators in the structural integration community. Great pictures, interesting discussion, and superb organization.

 

The Core Program : Fifteen Minutes a Day That Can Change Your Life by Peggy Brill, Gerald Secor Couzens. Bantam; (January 1, 2003); ISBN: 0553380842. Phenomenal resource — a program you can do to maintain myofascial strength and balance for the rest of your life. Written for women but works for men as well. If you travel a lot, I recommend this program, which can be done anywhere.

 

The Endless Web: Fascial Anatomy and Physical Reality
by Louis R. Schultz, Rosemary Feitis. North Atlantic Books; (November 1996); ISBN: 1556432283. Want to learn even more about fascia? This is an oldie but a goodie.

 

The Multifidus Back Pain Solution: Simple Exercises That Target the Muscles That Count by Jim Johnson, Scott D. Boden. New Harbinger Pubns; 1st edition (June 15, 2002); ISBN: 1572242787. Compilation of the absolute latest in back pain research. Everybody needs to know about the information and exercises presented. No woo-woo; just hard science.

 

Pain Free : A Revolutionary Method for Stopping Chronic Pain by Pete Egoscue. Bantam; (February 29, 2000); ISBN: 0553379887. Another solid resource for exercises that change alignment. Look for other books by this author specifically for women and computer users.

 

Rolfing: Reestablishing the Natural Alignment and Structural Integration of the Human Body for Vitality and Well-Being by Ida P. Rolf, Ron Thompson. Inner Traditions Intl Ltd; Revised edition (November 1990); ISBN: 0892813350. The tome. I haven't read this edition. The editing was very poor in the earlier versions (what do you expect from a bunch of hippies...). But if you can look past the surface, the material is profound. If you want to learn about Rolfing from the master, this is the source.

 

Yoga for Scoliosis (Booklet or Video) by Elise Browning Miller. Presents poses for scoliosis, information on scoliosis, describes benefits of yoga for scoliosis. Visit www.yogaforscoliosis.com Finally, somebody put it all in one place. If you have scoliosis — Rolfing, the Core Program (above), and yoga need to be in your toolbox.
