Two teachers (cadavers) will be available—one unfixed and one prosected/fixed. This allows us to learn layered palpations skills and how to identify anatomical structures from the teachers. Day one: The full teacher will be explored through each relational layer from skin, skin ligaments and nerves, superficial fascia, perifascial and deep fascial profundae. The second prosected teacher will show us a deeper cut of the visceral, spinal cord and brain. Day two: We will continue diving deeper into both teachers focusing on projects such as understanding the deep six rotators, neural innervation of the lumbar are stabilization of the shoulder girdle. Day three: We will continue our projects and complete the dissection. Cost is $900 (see attached flyer for details to sign up) and deposit of $450 due in November of 2024. As of October 30, 2023 I am taking a wait list for interested students as the class is full for June of 2024.
