		<title>Palpatory literacy &#8211; pearls of wisdom</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am coming to the end of a lengthy revision of one of my favourite books &#8220;Palpation an Assessment Skills&#8220; (Elsevier, Edinburgh). This 3rd edition will appear in a year or so, after grinding through its&#8217; production process&#8230;..

		<title>Fascia &#8211; the new frontier in bodywork</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been traveling, teaching and reading (and writing) &#8211; a lot  lately &#8211; hence the lack of blog posts. It&#8217;s about the reading and writing bits that I want to offer some thoughts in this posting &#8211; as it seems to me that there has been a definite shift in terms of new therapeutic directions, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Might trigger points sometimes be useful?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[If a fire alarm goes off should we listen to its&#8217; warning sound and get out of the building?

I think you know the answer to that hypothetical question, and so the short answer to the question raised [...]]]></description>

		<title>Thoughts on the obesity epidemic</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I returned to Greece (where I spend half the year) yesterday, in a state of some exhaustion after a really busy time teaching in the UK and Europe.

		<title>Let&#8217;s think Zink</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have just been writing a reply to a query, raised on a UK based web-forum for osteopaths, on the topic of the extremely useful, but little known, Zink test &#8211; and in doing so it gave me a thought that discussion of this (the test, not the forum!) would be a useful first blog [...]]]></description>
