Brooks Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Reveals Rollin Beckers deep insight into cranial osteopathy: inspiring generations of practitioners; teaching about the nature of health and healing; and how we can apply this understanding through osteopathic manipulation. Publisher Description Life in Motion: The Osteopathic Vision of Rollin E. Becker, DO opens a door into a way of healing that is both practical and profound. Throughout its existence, the science and art of osteopathy has been passed on from hand to hand and heart to heart. Dr. Rollin E. Becker and his teachings represent a vital link in this continuity. He was both an inspired student and a compelling teacher.Dr. Becker was following in the path of Drs. A.T. Still, the founder of osteopathy, and W.G. Sutherland, who was the developer of "osteopathy in the cranial field" and Dr. Beckers great mentor. And, true to his faith in the fundamental principles of osteopathy, Dr. Becker did not focus on simply relieving symptoms in his patients. Instead, he recognized the health within the patient and facilitated the release of whatever impediments there existed to free and full, healthy functioning within them. This book includes Dr. Beckers view of the philosophy and principles of osteopathy as well as many aspects of their clinical application. While Dr. Becker practiced what is called "cranial osteopathy," he never limited himself to treating just cranial problems or, for that matter, to treating just musculoskeletal conditions. Dr. Becker used osteopathic treatment to treat countless patients suffering with everything from hypertension to pneumonia to neurological problems to whiplash and every sort of pain condition. Not every condition could be cured, but so many could at least be helped, sometimes surprisingly and profoundly so. Life in Motion serves as a thorough presentation of his work for anyone studying osteopathy. In fact, anyone practicing a healing art will find within these writings a deeper understanding of the nature of health and healing and the practitioners role in bringing this about.The Works of Rollin E. Becker, DO: Life in Motion: The Osteopathic Vision of Rollin E Becker, DO contains the written and verbal discussions he carried on in his teaching of osteopathy, inspiring generations of practitioners and teachers. The Stillness of Life: The Osteopathic Philosophy of Rollin E Becker, DO contains his more personal and private communications, revealing the deep reflections and insights of this great osteopathic practitioner and teacher. Three Great Teachers of Osteopathy: Lessons we Learned from Drs. Becker, Fulford, and Wales contains stories told by those who encountered these great "cranial osteopathic" practitioners and teachers. Author Biography Rollin E. Becker, DO (1910-1996) was a remarkable practitioner and teacher of cranial osteopathy. He was born into an osteopathic family--at the time of his birth, his father, Arthur Becker, DO, was a teacher under the guidance of osteopathys founder, Andrew Taylor Still. Rollin, after practicing for a decade, deepened his study of Dr. Stills writings, and also met and became a dedicated student of cranial osteopathys founder, William G. Sutherland, DO.The guidance of both Still and Sutherland led Dr. Becker to learn from the most authoritative source available--the living forces present within the living body. He became a ceaseless observer, continually seeking an answer to the question: What is "health" and what is the most efficient and effective way to help bring it about? In his lectures and writings, Dr. Becker taught in a way that encouraged his students to seek and observe those same living forces of health within the body that he had learned from. Dr. Becker lived the osteopathy that he taught-it being both simple and profound. His understanding of health and healing, and his capacity to apply it for the benefit of his patients and students, were profound. Yet this great depth of knowledge and skill were always delivered in the simplest and most direct way possible. He met the needs of each person who came to him as best he could and strove to learn something more about Life from each encounter. RACHEL E.
