The original plan had envisaged a brief revision of Praxis der
Kraniosakralen Osteopathie. This has now given way to a substantial
reworking, and the chapter on the temporomandibular joint in
particular has been considerably expanded. The results of new
research and understanding of the anatomical structures and their
physiological significance as well as additional diagnostic and
therapeutic procedures are presented. Osteopathic approaches to the
temporomandibular joint are increasingly being used in place of
orthopedic treatments of the jaw. In the light of this it becomes
essential for the osteopath to possess a sound body of knowledge.
All other chapters have also been updated to reflect the present
state of knowledge. The instructional layout, which follows the
treatment of each cranial bone and orofacial structure, of the organs
of sight, hearing and balance and the upper respiratory tract, and in
the case of headache, has proved helpful and has been retained in its
existing form. It would give me great pleasure if the present manual
and reference work is able in any degree to contribute to the further
recognition of osteopathic treatment in the cranial field.
