Every parent wants the same thing: for their child to enjoy a long and fulfilling life. But what happens when things don’t go according to plan? What happens when parents have to become advocates for their child’s healthcare needs? Who decides what is in a child’s ‘best interests’?

Stephanie Nimmo faced these questions first-hand when her daughter, Daisy, was diagnosed with a life-limiting condition as a baby. Seen through the lens of Stephanie’s own experiences, this sensitive book delves into the complex world of medical ethics and paediatric palliative care. From recognising tipping points to the importance of building relationships with palliative care teams well before crisis, this book explores how medical professionals can better support families throughout their child’s care.

Interviews with clinicians and snapshots from the lives of patients’ families provide insight into the realities of life on both sides of the hospital bed. Compassionate explanations of the conflicting pressures in the hospital system foster understanding and help medical professionals and families work together.

No matter what job title or level of responsibility, one of the most complex parts of working in the healthcare field is the management of ethical dilemmas. Those often ‘hard to put into words’ tensions between what one side wants or thinks they want and what you or others think is best. Arguably, managing such issues is part of routine training, yet often, the advice seems token at best and downright useless at worst.

Previously titled Biomechanics of Musculoskeletal Injury, this third edition expands coverage of injuries beyond those of the musculoskeletal system to include the head, neck, and spine. Joining noted biomechanists Ronald Zernicke and William Whiting is concussion expert and athletic trainer Steven Broglio, who offers insights on head trauma and other neurological injuries. Unique in its evaluation of and appreciation for the intricacies of injury mechanisms, Biomechanics of Injury, Third Edition, comprehensively examines these issues:

• The effects of injury on the normal function of the human anatomy and joint mechanics
• Mechanical parameters such as force, stress and strain, stiffness, and elasticity and their application to tissue mechanics and injury
• How connective tissues respond to mechanical loading and how those tissues are studied to quantify their mechanical behavior
• Factors such as age, gender, nutrition, and exercise, with an emphasis on how lifestyle choices might lessen the chance or severity of injury
• How the principles of mechanical load and overload, use and overuse, level and progression of injury, and the many contributory factors involved in injury combine to form a backdrop for viewing specific injuries

Updated sidebars present a detailed analysis of anterior cruciate ligament injuries, rotator cuff pathologies, and concussion. In addition, the text discusses topics of current concern such as falls in older populations, throwing-related rotator cuff pathologies, and youth injuries from carrying backpacks.

Biomechanics of Injury, Third Edition, also employs learning aids to help readers understand and retain information. Objectives at the start of each chapter highlight the main concepts. Key terms appear in bold in the text and are defined in the glossary. Key Points at the end of each chapter summarize central concepts. Questions to Consider appear at the end of each chapter to test readers’ understanding and ability to apply the information presented. Updated Suggested Readings are included at the end of each chapter for readers who wish to dive deeper into selected topics.

Knowledge of the biological responses of tissues to mechanical loading improves our understanding of injury and its consequences.

Heal painful joints, prevent injuries, and rebuild your body from the ground up.
(If mainstream fitness advice has left you broken down and beat up, it’s time for a new strategy.)

Most middle-aged fitness enthusiasts and athletes have been dragged down by joint pain, injuries, and other ailments commonly accepted as “part of getting older.”

But it doesn’t have to be this way.

In fact, anyone can conquer joint pain and rebuild their body.
It simply requires understanding the hidden causes and a road map (this book) that leads to the solution.

Built from Broken presents a paradigm shift in how to think about corrective exercise, sports nutrition, and joint health.
Once you see how the system works, you’ll never look at exercise or joint health the same way again.

Part 1 lays the foundation for understanding why your joints are breaking down.
You’ll learn:

• The 5 primary causes of joint pain.

• How to prevent the “Big 3” injuries that trap you in the Pain/Injury Cycle.

• Why conventional pain management merely masks symptoms (and 3 natural pain relief techniques that actually work).

• How to identify and fix muscle imbalances that lead to tension, pain, and injuries.

• Natural injury recovery strategies that improve healing time and tissue repair quality.

Part 2 gives you a step-by-step corrective exercise guide and list of action steps to rebuild your body from the ground up.
Including:

• The ideal training schedule to maximize muscle recovery and connective tissue repair (in as little as 2 days per week, at any age).

• Illustrated corrective exercise instructions (with several home workout options).

• How to strengthen joints with cutting-edge connective tissue training techniques.

• A step-by-step training program complete with workout routines.

Whether you have been training for a few years, a few decades, or have never stepped foot in a weight room, it’s not too late to overhaul your body.

If the conventional path of lifting and stretching has left you broken down, why not try a new strategy?

This book is your way out of the pain/injury cycle.

All you have to do is follow three simple steps.

1. Read the book.

2. Follow the action steps inside to resolve your pain.

3. Implement the 4-week corrective training program outlined in the book.

Just imagine, in 4-8 weeks from now, you could be in a pain-free, mobile, strong, and functional body.

One that allows you to do the activities you love, push the limits of your capabilities, and achieve your true physical potential.

This process can start for you right now.
