pagine: 224
In 1929 Germany, physiotherapist Elisabeth Dicke suffered from poor circulation in her right leg, acute back pain, and a host of other ailments.

Metodo Mézières «rivoluzione in fisioterapia». Storia, teoria e pratica dell'ideatrice della rieducazione posturale
Michaël Nisand
editore: Fisiocorsi
pagine: 288
Françoise Mézières propone non una variante di ciò che si faceva ma un vero e proprio sistema di pensiero che genererà nuove tecniche terapeutiche, tanto che c'è chi, nella storia della fisioterapia, non esita a considerare un "pre" e un "post" Mézières. Non si tratta di un'evoluzione, ma di un'autentica rivoluzione. Françoise Mézières definisce un concetto del tutto nuovo, quello di catena muscolare. Il metodo mira a restaurare la morfologia normale e, per farlo, propone come mezzo terapeutico un insieme di posture correttive di allungamento delle catene muscolari.
