Cranial / Central Nervous System Anatomy
With Ursula Hofer
This class offers a blend of learning from the inside using different approaches like tuning into our own bodies, drawing and tracing. Learning from the outside we will examine pictures and slides with descriptions of the anatomy and physiology. These slides will also be provided as PDFs.
We will learn:
How to connect and trace the venous sinuses and the venous flow in the spine
How to trace the different pathways of communication in the central nervous system
How to connect with the cranial ventricles and track their flow
About the function of the glia as an integral part of the human nervous system
To feel the different meninges in the cranium and the spine, different pulls in them and how they relate to the body as a whole
To feel the different cranial bones from the inside, their mobility or lack of it
To identify and find the different glands located in the cranium in relationship to the bones
To feel the relationship between the cranium and the pelvis
About different structures in the spine like: Cauda Equina, Filum Terminal and Conus Medullaris, Central Canal and how they affect the cranium and the central nervous system
