The aim of this book is to give the practitioner or the student of osteopathy the basic knowledge of biomechanics and cranial pathomechanics. These two subjects are at the heart of all diagnosis and provide the practitioner with the choice of techniques they will use. The book comprises of four parts: cranial biomechanics; pathomechanics; therapeutic tools; manual diagnosis (all with specific tests). Each part follows an educational approach with the page of text opposite the page of illustrations.It covers the following: * Manual diagnostic test for each manipulation* Effects of the pathological change on the cranial sutures* Tests of the cranial peripheral system* How the patholmecanics of the lesions affect the dynamics of cranial motion* General overview of the signs of the osteopathic cranial lesions* How osteopaths should use the manual tools
