About Course

This course provides a comprehensive introduction to the structure (anatomy), function (physiology), and common disorders (pathology) of the human body. Students explore the organization of the body from cellular and tissue levels to organ systems, including key concepts such as homeostasis, cellular biology, and the interrelationships between structure and function.

Major body systems covered often include:

– Integumentary (skin and related structures, including common skin conditions)
– Skeletal
– Muscular
– Nervous (including special senses)
– Endocrine
– Cardiovascular
– Lymphatic and immune
– Respiratory
– Digestive
– Urinary
– Reproductive

The course emphasizes how normal physiological processes maintain health, as well as how disruptions lead to injury, disease, signs, symptoms, and pathological changes. It is frequently designed as a prerequisite for advanced studies in health professions, massage therapy, or related fields, and may incorporate practical applications relevant to clinical or therapeutic contexts.

What Will You Learn?

  • Body basics: Levels of organization (cells → tissues → organs → systems), anatomical terms, planes, directions, cavities, and homeostasis (how the body stays balanced).
  • Normal structure & function (Anatomy + Physiology):
  • Cells, tissues, and major systems (e.g., integumentary/skin, skeletal, muscular, nervous, endocrine, cardiovascular, respiratory, digestive, urinary, reproductive, lymphatic/immune).
  • How structures enable functions, like how heart muscle pumps blood or kidneys filter waste.
  • Disease & disorders (Pathology):
  • Common conditions that disrupt normal function (e.g., osteoporosis in bones, diabetes in endocrine, hypertension in cardiovascular, infections/autoimmune issues in immune system, cancers, strokes, etc.).
  • Causes, signs/symptoms, and how diseases alter physiology.
