Samenvatting:

What if everything you thought you knew about the body... was only part of the story?

Alive and Kicking invites you to reimagine the human body—not as a machine made of parts, but as a living, sensing, intelligent matrix. In this deeply engaging and thought-provoking book, integrative clinical anatomist Sue Adstrum challenges conventional views of anatomy, physiotherapy, and healthcare, blending science, somatics, and fascia research to offer a more connected, compassionate path to wellness.

Drawing on decades of clinical practice, academic research, and bodywork, Sue introduces the fascial system—a vital but often overlooked tissue network that impacts how we move, heal, and feel. Along the way, she weaves in insights from energy medicine, mind-body awareness, and preventive self-care, offering readers practical ways to reclaim agency in an overstretched system.

Whether you're a curious reader, wellness practitioner, or simply someone seeking a more empowering way to care for your body, Alive and Kicking offers a whole-person perspective—scientific, soulful, and fascia-aware.

Warm, wise, and accessible, this book is a call to rethink the body—and reclaim your health—from the inside out.
