Module 803/903 (Peripheral Nervous System)

Main Objective
The main objective of this module is to review the anatomical and neurophysiological structure of the peripheral nervous system and its clinical implications. Emphasis will be placed on the influences of cortical hemisphericity on the onset and propagation of disorders affecting the PNS. Diagnostic protocols assessing central cortical influences will be introduced. Chiropractic applications in the treatment of peripheral nerve lesions will be discussed in detail.

Key Concepts:
1. Clinical anatomy and neurophysiology of PNS

2. Physiological reaction of peripheral nerves to compression

3. Predisposing clinical factors that increase the susceptibility of nerves to compressive and non-compressive pathologies.

4. The relationship of cortical hemisphericity to the development, propagation and maintenance of various peripheral nerve compressive lesions.

5. The use of 1b afferent stretches in the treatment of peripheral lesions and other manipulative and non-manipulative procedures.
