Neurology


Instructors Dr Joe Bertone, DVM or Dr. Simon Platt, will present a logical, progressive format in the true Equinology style. Loads of slides, specimens, hand-outs, practicals in the classroom and on horses will support the lectures and printed matter. A clear understanding of these subjects will help every body worker (or those in any equine health care field) whether they are using massage, acupressure, craniosacral therapy, or myofascial release. It doesn’t matter if this subject matter is new to you or you need a review; you will benefit from this course.

This course is directed to the body worker to assist in the understanding of the mechanisms of various modalities. Pathologies relevant to cases body workers may encounter are discussed. The latest discoveries, advances and systematic studies on the effects of various modalities will be presented. Exciting new information makes this course a must to update all those in the field.

General outline: Central Nervous System (brain and spinal cord) and the Peripheral Nervous System: structure and function, enervation and association with other structures, fiber type. General: nerve contribution to clinical and functional anatomy; Muscle form and function.
