The Art & Science of Kinesiology
The Art & Science of Kinesiology
Dr. Joe Muscolino has been a soft-tissue-oriented chiropractic physician and manual and movement therapy educator for more than 35 years. He has created an online video streaming subscription service called Anatomy Master Class (AMC) for massage therapy school curriculum that covers muscle, bone, and joint structure and function, fundamental concepts of kinesiology/biomechanics, and visceral anatomy, as well as hands-on manual and movement therapy skill-set content.
AMC is an extremely thorough curriculum involving approximately 1,500 video lessons and more than 200 hours of lecture presentations, along with PDF slides of the lectures (that function as a complete textbook) and more.
All this content can be used as the anatomy/physiology and kinesiology curriculum at your school, the palpation and stretching curriculum, and even the curriculum for body mechanics, self-care, and other skill sets. AMC can be used as an adjunct to your textbooks and instructors, or even replace them in some cases. A test bank and curriculum guide are also provided, as well as six hours of mentoring with Dr. Joe.
All AMC content is taught via critical thinking, with the big picture of application to manual therapy in mind. This allows your students to understand and reason through muscle function and manual therapy skill-set application instead of just memorizing it.
Dr. Joe is the author of multiple publications with Elsevier and runs numerous hands-on, continuing education workshops in the US and around the world.
