The book is designed for current Cranial Osteopathic practitioners and offers a deeper and broader perspective on the practice. It begins with an inner journey of self-understanding, discussing the osteopathic toolbox and the importance of inner centering when diagnosing and treating. The book then explores aspects of diagnosis, including tissue and fluid states, providing the reader with several inner considerations to apply when assessing a patient. The whole body is then assessed and treated using an inner approach, with each chapter providing an overview of the relevant anatomy and discussing the osteopathic relevance and new ways of working. Case studies and clinical experiences are described, and hands-on exercises are given for the reader to practise. These exercises should be done at the treatment table and will prepare the reader to use the approaches described with their patients. The audio leads the listener through a guided tour of the anatomy and explains the exercise while they use their hands to feel what the author is describing. This guide will help Cranial Osteopathic practitioners enhance their skills, knowledge, and understanding to a much-advanced level.
