Functional Neurology utilizes our understanding of how the nervous system works in the treatment of a variety of clinical conditions. Fuctional Neurology for Practitioners of Manual Medicine takes the reader from the embryonic beginnings of the nervous system, through the biochemistry of receptor activation and on to the functional systems of the nervous system.
Both the student and the clinician will find this text a valuable source of information and clinical guidance in the application of detailed neurological principles to their practice. Concepts, relationships and scientific mechanisms of the nervous system function are covered, and this aids the practitioner in developing their clinical approach to a wide variety of patient presentations.
This text explores the neurological impact of the application of functional neurological principles, using a detailed clinical approach supported by clinical case studies. The text is fully referenced, which allows the reader to immediately apply the concepts to practice situations.
New for this edition are new chapters on pain (including headache) and theoretical evidence, plus extensive electronic resources supporting the text.

New to this edition
Contains new chapters on theoretical evidence and the management of pain (including headache)
Contains a wide range of additional case studies, ‘clinical conundrums’ and key questions and answers for each topic
Bonus DVD contains fully searchable text, a downloadable image bank, brain dissection and video clips of the manipulative techniques and examination procedures found within the volume plus 200 multiple choice questions
Key Features
Utilizes our understanding of how the nervous system works in the treatment of a variety of clinical conditions
Demystifies the clinical results seen in the practice of Functional Neurology and scientifically validates its clinical success
Addresses function rather than pathology, allowing the reader to gain a firm understanding of the neurological processes seen in health and disease
Contains clinical cases which are designed to be read and answered before starting the chapter to allow the reader to gauge their current state of knowledge
‘Quick Facts’ introduce new concepts or allow rapid review of information already presented in the text in a brief and succinct manner
Contains a detailed overview of the concepts relating to our understanding of the development of emotion to demonstrate the link between physical health and the mind
Contains abundant references to support controversial concepts
