Musculoskeletal Anatomy

What it covers

This unit enables students to understand fundamental principles of human anatomy as they relate to the structure and function of the neuromusculoskeletal system. Particular emphasis is placed on developing an applied understanding of functional anatomy to appreciate the interaction of the neuromusculoskeletal system to support posture, movement and performance across the lifespan. Students will use a range of physical and digital anatomy resources, complemented by physical assessments of function and posture, to evaluate and interpret movement patterns, informed by a theoretical understanding of how these systems interact and respond to stressors associated with load, deconditioning, ageing and injury.
