Muscles and Meridians is a unique book that breaks new conceptual ground in the realm of human movement. Exploring the connection between evolutionary biology and Chinese meridians, the volume offers a novel and effective system of diagnosis and treatment of common musculoskeletal disorders.

  • Describes a new model of human movement - the Contractile Field model
  • Offers a rare and serious attempt to look at whole person movement patterns – akin to ‘Anatomy Trains’ but with a stronger link to vertebrate evolution and development
  • Suggests that much of our endemic back and leg pain is due to a loss of ease in postures that are ‘archetypal’ to mankind
  • Offers a profound new understanding of the world’s oldest medical map, the Chinese meridian map

1. Introduction - p. 7 2. 1. A wriggle in deep time - p. 10 3. 2. Embryological morphogenesis - p. 16 4. 3. Modelling movement - p. 25 5. 4. Lateral contractile field (L-CF) - p. 31 6. 5. Dorso/ventro contractile field (D/V-CF) - p. 35 7. 6. Helical contractile field (H-CF) - p. 40 8. 7. Limb contractile fields (Limb-CFs) - p. 43 9. 8. Radial contractile field (R-CF) - p. 46 10. 9. Chiralic contractile field (C-CF) - p. 49 11. 10. Fluid field (F-F) - p. 53 12. 11. Archetypal postures - p. 56 13. 12. Decoding the Chinese meridial map - p. 63 14. 13. Manipulating shape - p. 76 15. Abbreviations and glossary - p. 83 16. Index - p. 85
