Musculoskeletal Anatomy Course
This course is for anyone wishing to learn the fundamentals of the Musculo-Skeletal systems and functional anatomy. The course starts with attending 2 days of practical training that includes a varied approach of manual and observational learning that will combine to improve your understanding of anatomy. After the practical training, you will be able to reinforce your knowledge with our online resources to continue your development. This course is suitable for sports-care practitioners, sports massage students, personal trainers, runners, etc, and may be attended before, alongside, or after other courses such as our Level 3 Sports Massage.
Aims
You will be shown the 206 bones that make up the skeletal system, how muscles and bones develop, repair, and function together to bring about stability and locomotion. We will explain the divisions of the skeletal system, categories of bones, types of joints and the muscles and tendons that support them. Study notes, diagrams, and practical exercises during the training will help you learn 45 of the main muscles in the human body, discover how they contract, where they attach, how to palpate them, what actions they bring about, and how to stretch them. We will also discuss exercises that focus on key muscle groups, giving you a sound understanding of the functional anatomy of the musculoskeletal system.
Entry Requirements
This 2-day course will be an ideal adjunct to any Level 3 course, including Sports Massage, Taping for Sport, and more. You must be physically able to do the work and be at least 18 years old.
