This highly illustrated book explains the effects of scars and adhesions on the body through the lens of biotensegrity, a concept that recognizes the role of physical forces on their formation, structure and treatment. It includes contributions from specialists in the fields of fascial anatomy, biotensegrity, movement, surgery and other manual therapies. It takes a comprehensive approach to providing a better understanding of these complex issues and will be valuable to every hands-on practitioner. The text is supported with online videos demonstrating five Scar Work therapeutic techniques.
Over de auteur
Sharon Wheeler’s unconventional early schooling gave her a taste for the unusual. She found a welcome home at Esalen Institute and taught Esalen’s Massage program in the sixties. Sharon was fortunate enough to study with Dr. Ida Rolf, Ph D, who trained her in Structural Integration in the summer of 1970. Further training in Rolf Movement and Advanced Structural Integration in the seventies consolidated her skills in this work. Her love of working with people and attempting the apparently impossible, combined with a particular skill in sensing disruptions to the body’s three-dimensional flow have combined to generate Sharon’s two ‘discoveries’: Scar Work and Bone Work. She teaches these new modalities in workshops around the world. She maintains a private practice in Structural Integration at home in Port Orchard, Washington, USA.
