Tom Myers – The Science of Bodywork #1: Unfolding Evolution

The story of our evolution is written in our bodies – in the fundamental energy flows, the cellular exchange, the complex communicating systems. Come along with Tom Myers as he plays out our evolutionary history, emphasizing points relevant to contemporary manual therapy, bodywork and movement education. With humor, imagery, and a host of examples, Tom spins out the story he has been developing for 40 years, detailing the rise of the fascial, nervous, and circulatory support that comes together to from the primordial ooze to make ‘us’ modern humans – the most fascinating and dangerous of all the animals.
