Book Description
The Fascial Distortion Model (FDM) was introduced by the American physician Stephen Typaldos (1957-2006). In this model all injuries and other conditions causing pain or disability are seen as arising from specific distortions of the connective tissue. This highly illustrated and very practical text and manual covers in detail the theoretical framework of the model, and approaches to manual therapy treatment based on an understanding of the FDM. The authors systematically cover all disorders likely to be encountered by the therapist, and provide comprehensive guidance about when it is appropriate to use FDM and how best to employ these approaches in treatment. The book is therefore of interest and value to all practitioners who want to understand the FDM and to incorporate its techniques into their therapeutic practice. This is also a comprehensive textbook and manual for anyone studying on FDM courses and for specific qualifications.

Book Description
Pain Science Yoga Life combines the neuroscience of pain with yoga philosophy and practice for pain care. Rooted in evidence-based practice, this book is a unique blend of the science of pain, the art and science of yoga and its practical application. It aims to bridge the gap that exists between a person in pain and their ability to move beyond suffering and back to life. Part One sets the foundation for pain science fundamentals, the Eight Limbs of Yoga, as well as mindfulness practices to aid in shifting perspectives and enhance interventions for those struggling with persistent pain. Part Two delves into key dimensions of pain and its care, such as perception, emotions, physical contributions, exercise and sleep. Each chapter has three sections: Headspace: presents a review of pain neuroscience and yoga research related to each dimension. Out of the Head and onto the Mat: translates information from 'Headspace' into an experiential practice on the yoga mat. Off the Mat and into Life: demonstrates how to extend knowledge and practice into daily living. Pain Science Yoga Life is a valuable resource for healthcare and yoga professionals, and is designed to deepen pain science knowledge and skills in the use of yoga for pain care. The combination of scientific information along with practice sections will enable professionals to directly apply the information in the clinic or studio. This book will also engage anyone who has an interest in deepening their understanding of pain and the use of yoga to gain resilience in the face of pain.

Book Description
Why Does It Hurt presents a whole new viewpoint on the way our bodies work using FDM, the Fascial Distortion Model. Fascia is the fibrous connective tissue that permeates our bodies and holds everything together. Distorted fascia is often the cause of pain that may not respond to traditional treatments of physical therapy or anti-inflammatory drugs. Thanks to FDM, patients stooped over from chronic back pain now stand straight, and athletes sidelined with sprains quickly return to the game and perform as if nothing happened. Why Does It Hurt explains how, in case after case, FDM dramatically shortens healing time, reduces the need for tests and drugs, and restores movement and well-being to patients who had given up hope.

Book Description
In 1991, Stephen Typaldos, D.O., discovered the first triggerband. It had occurred to him that his patients were using the same body language again and again. From there he developed the fascial distortion model in which both the clinical symptoms and the patient's body language were put together to form a diagnosis, which determined the specific therapy given.He continued to develop this system and today six different distortions are known and treatable. The results obtained through the model's treatments amaze the patients as well as the therapists. Fascial treatments are steadily becoming more and more important. Largely ignored by researchers and anatomists alike, fascia has played a side-role in medicine. It isonly in the case of Rolfing and parts of osteopathy that attention has been given to this connective network.With the FDM, therapists are facing a revolution in the treatment of pain in the musculoskeletal system. Within a few minutes of receiving treatment, a frozen shoulder that was previously resistant to therapy can now move normally. Chronic pains will also go away and athletes can continue to play their sport even after supination trauma.Fascia plays the role of a mediator in the body. It provides for more stability than muscles, and at the same time more mobility than bones. Fascial tissue is found in all parts of our bodies and even each individual muscle cell is covered by fascia. If someone were able to successfully remove the contents of each fascial sheath, then an exact shape of the human body would nevertheless remain intact.Stephen Typaldos discovered six different disorders that can occur within the fascia of the musculoskeletal apparatus.1. Triggerband2. Continuum Distortion3. Herniated Triggerpoint4. Cylinder Distortion5. Folding Distortion6. Tectonic FixationAt this point in time, the FDM has not been scientifically proven, but each successful treatment proves FDM therapistscorrect and calls into question the many other therapies and methods commonly used. For instance, it is now irrational to hold to the theory that muscles shorten, because it is possible for a shoulder that has been frozen for more than two years to regain the full extent of its movement through one treatment.After learning and understanding the model, each therapist is in a position to utilize the therapy methods and quickly increase his rate of success. The FDM is a revolution to the entire medical field. Let us work on revising and improving earlier models in the hope that we may detect new dysfunctions and also find the right therapy for each patient. In the coming years we will see many new approaches from the field of fascia research and we should not close our mind to these.

Book Description
Until now the Fascia Distortion Model (in short FDM) has so far played no significant role in the treatment of infants. As our smallest patients haven't any previously learned body language, a classical treatment according to FDM is virtually impossible. With adults it is possible to discuss their symp- toms and indicate where the problem lies, this is more or less ruled out with infants. Here we have to rely rather on the results from the clinic and palpation as well as our experience with FDM. As we know as FDM therapists, FDM treatment is often accompanied by pain, but is also very successful. If our lit- tle patients have painful distortions then it is the least we can do but to try and relieve that pain. Unfortunately, this process is as painful for younger patients as for adults. Here, the question for therapists is whether such treatment is possibly incompatible with their consciences. In my view, it is almost a duty of the therapist, to relieve the infant from his suffering! Let's administer brief pain during treatment, knowing that in the end it is for the good of the child. Due to the great suppleness of the tissue in younger years, we can achieve a great deal of success within the first one or two treatments. This makes using FDM with infants so interesting. As with my first book, as also here, I will adorn myself mainly with false laurels. This work could only arise due to the help of some ingenious minds that have already set milestones before me in FDM therapy. My intention now is to filter the developments made by some renowned thera- pists and, together with my experience, implement this for the treatment of infants. Among the great therapists who have inspired me are Andrew Taylor Still, William Suther- land, Stephen Typaldos and Tom Esser. Especially through the latter did I discover my love of treating infants and chil- dren. For this, dear Tom, I retrospectively send you my sin- cerest thanks. I want to also thank my family who have not only seen little of me due to my practice and seminar activities but also due to my writing this book. I always had you in my thoughts! I hope all readers take pleasure in this book and also hope that I can remove the insecurities and fears about the treat- ment of infants and also present some worthwhile ideas. If we therapists don't help children, then who will?
