Energy Osteopathy: matter, motion and interrelationships
Nicholas Handoll expands on the research presented in his book Anatomy of Potency to show that structure has no form and matter is an expression of motion. His conclusions are condensed into a hands-on practical application that can be used in the clinic. He builds on WG Sutherland’s “fundamental principle” of his cranial concept, which leads to the proposal that the fundamental essence of the body is not just a deep concentration of energy but also that the body exists within a universe of even greater energy. He takes our understanding further, to examine the body as a unit of energy in its energy field, both in health, in disease and in repair and discusses the great opportunities this opens for osteopathic care.
This is the first time that Nicholas Handoll has presented his work on potency in its entirety.
Nicholas Handoll, DO, MSCC, graduated from the British School of Osteopathy in 1971. He has been working with Sutherland’s concept for 35 years and teaching for 25 years. He is a founder of the Sutherland Cranial College with special responsibility for its Constitution. He has taught with the SCC, and also undergraduates at the BSO, BCOM and ESO.
His published papers include The Osteopathic Management of Children with Down’s Syndrome, 1998, published in the British Osteopathic Journal, and a personal view on Energy Medicine, 2004, published in The Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine. His book Anatomy of Potency was published in 2000. He has spoken at osteopathic meetings in Britain, America, Australia and Europe.
He works in private practice in Hereford and Ross-on-Wye.
