Deane Juhan does a marvelous job explaining exactly what the skin, connective tissue, bone, muscles, nerve and myofascia are, and why we need them. He methodically and meticulously defines why it is important to know exactly what they do, how everything is connected and how neglect can lead to plasticity of the brain.
Many have written on this, but few explain how neglecting the body's needs create plasticity affecting and rewiring the brains' perception and response. Seldom, if ever, do physicians get training on connective tissue even though it has the greatest effect on chronic pain conditions.
Deane Juhan holds tight to same mantras I use in my own writing "self-awareness, self-control and active participation of the will to the process of growth and development are major themes to this education." Keep the fluid moving, it is the oil for the body, and the dump truck for the toxins we accumulate when we live a stagnant life.
If you are a pain management professional, physical therapist, chiropractor, body worker, or a patient with chronic pain, you must read this book. You will have a better understanding of the myofascia, plasticity, and the feedback our brain receives from the body.
However - the theories and ideas presented are WONDERFUL. The book itself is written in a very thoughtful manner, and I can appreciate that. As a massage therapist, I can appreciate this volume.
While I wouldn't say this is a must read, I think if you have the time, give it a go.

His experience as a "body worker" is important in his presentation
Grazie
I am a Sport & Remedial Massage Therapist and was recommended this book by a colleague. To be honest I found the opening chapters a little hard going, but that may just be me getting used to the style of writing. However the sections dealing with the different aspects of the human body were well presented, and in great depth, but always with an idea that this is for bodyworkers.
A great book.
Deane Juhan est une référence dans le monde du bodywork et du massage, beaucoup de physiologie et d'anatomie mais une approche différente, et qui se la pète pas comme la médecine allopathique. Un chapitre sur le tissus du corps telle les fascias en temps que cristaux liquides, le rôle de la conscience en relation avec le corps. Pas pour le néophytes c sur! Pour des thérapeutes confirmes ou masseur cherchant a apprendre et augmenter ses connaissances du corps, de l'anatomie et de la physiologie en relation avec la conscience, l'esprit, enfin une approche holistique et non pas mecanistique.
I've just read through the book again, especially to look into the liquid crystal structure of the body again! amazing! what makes this book amazing is indeed this new approach of the body, the last chapters, especially the Mae Wan Ho, still relevant especially Chapter 3 and the explanation of collagen fibers and their possible role...because of their structure and genesis!.
so yes, indeed maybe not a classic physiology book, nor related to bodywork although it is in the psychological and philosophical point of view, with linking to physiology and the way we sense or experience feelings...the author explores all of that, and it's fascinating! i would need a small update probably in the view of all the progress that have been made in the last few decades, but Oschman books will probably update that.
anyway, i'm reading it every few years! and it's still inspiring and amazing!
