Description

This 15-hour course provides a comprehensive examination of the proprioceptive and neuromuscular systems, focusing on the structure and function of muscle tissue, reflex pathways, and central modulation of movement. Participants will explore energy dynamics, reflex arcs, suprasegmental pathways, and clinical disorders such as myopathies, hypotonia, spasticity, and neuromuscular junction dysfunction. Emphasis is placed on clinical applications, including stretching, hypertrophy, nutrition, and neuromuscular rehab strategies.
