Intermediate Level
This course will heavily focus on the common injuries (i.e., strains, sprains, tears, dislocations, fractures, etc.) affecting the musculoskeletal system whether due to microtrauma, overuse, poor techniques etc.) Unlike my course- “The Anatomy Voyage” (already on Outschool platform) which does an in- depth study of the organ systems anatomy, this class will offer a general anatomy introduction of the musculoskeletal grouping to allow concentration on the actual injuries. The classes are highly interactive with class participation, discussions and power point slides and or videos. This class will be a great optional course for the science buff, sport and or health enthusiast. The course is ongoing so will provide weekly subject matter per groupings of musculoskeletal regions. 1)Week of 1/28/2024-General Anatomy and Identifiers of Musculoskeletal Injuries 2) Week of 2/04/2024- Injuries pertaining to Hands/Wrists/Feet and Ankles 3) Week of 2/11//2024-Injuries pertaining to Knees/Shoulders 4) Week of 2/18/2024- Injuries pertaining to Hips/Pelvis 5) Week of 2/25/2024-Injuries pertaining to Neck and Back 6) Important Facts About Bones , Muscles and Joints * Please note that this course is purely informational and not to be substituted for seeking of professional medical advice. *
Learning Goals
Student will not only learn about such injuries (i.e., strains, sprains, tears, dislocations, fractures, etc.) affecting musculoskeletal system but will also become familiarized with some causes of injuries, re-injuries and physical burnout. Hopefully, upon completion will be able to apply experience to sport and or every day activities.
