Exploring the Interplay of Osteopathic Medicine and the Neuroendocrine System: A Fluidic Dialogue for Health and Healing
Introduction
The nervous, endocrine, and immune systems function as a complex and interconnected unit, modulated by sensory inputs, emotions, and thoughts. This course offers an osteopathic perspective on the endocrine system, which serves as a long-term functional regulation system for overall health.
Through an in-depth discussion of neurogenic and endocrine regulation of stress, and their relationship with emotions and cognitive-behavioural skills, participants will gain an understanding of the functional anatomy of the central (thalamus, hypothalamus, pituitary, and pineal gland) and peripheral endocrine systems (thyroid, thymus, adrenal, gastro-entero-pancreatic, and gonads glands).
The course will also provide practical instruction on the assessment and osteopathic treatment of the endocrine system at various levels, with a particular focus on fluidic and liquid/vascular treatment at an organic level. By the end of the course, participants will have gained the skills and knowledge necessary to promote health and healing through the interplay of osteopathic medicine and the neuroendocrine system.
In this course, we will delve into the complex interplay between the neuroendocrine system and osteopathic medicine. The contents of the course include:
- Stress, anxiety, fear, and memories: neurogenic and neuroendocrine regulation, the stress axis (HPA)
- Thalamus, hypothalamus, pituitary, and pineal gland: fundamentals of functional anatomy
- The global evaluation of the Liquid Body
- Evaluation and balancing of intracranial membranes
- Insula and the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC): elements of functional anatomy and osteopathic treatment
- Blood-brain barrier (BBB), glymphatic system, and meningeal lymphatic system: the future of “osteopathy the cranial field” and differentiation between fluidic and liquid treatment in the osteopathic field
- Evaluation and osteopathic treatment of the anterior sphere of the skull, the hypothalamic-pituitary lodge, and the pituitary artery
- Evaluation and treatment of the third ventricle
- Thyroid and parathyroid gland: fundamentals of functional anatomy and evaluation and treatment of motility and vasomotion in the thyroid lodge
- Thymus: fundamentals of functional anatomy and evaluation and treatment of motility and vasomotion in the thymus lodge
- The adrenal cortical-medullary system: fundamentals of functional anatomy and evaluation, fluidic, and liquidian treatment of the adrenal lodge
- Abdominal pulse evaluation and cardiovascular inhibition test
- The gastro-enteric-pancreatic (GEP) endocrine system: fluidic and liquid treatment of the gastro-oesophageal lodge, the hepato-vesicular lodge, the duodenal-pancreatic and splenic lodge, and the small and large intestine
- Gonads and endocrine system: fundamentals of functional anatomy and evaluation and treatment of the gonadic lodge, both male and female, with fluidic and liquidian treatment.
By the end of this course, you will have a comprehensive understanding of the interplay between the neuroendocrine system and osteopathic medicine, as well as the skills necessary to assess and treat patients with a variety of neuroendocrine-related conditions.
Learning objectives
- Explain the relationship between the neuroendocrine system, sensory inputs, emotions, and cognitive-behavioural skills, and how they affect overall health.
- Analyse the functional anatomy of the central and peripheral endocrine systems, including the thalamus, hypothalamus, pituitary, pineal gland, thyroid, thymus, adrenal, gastro-entero-pancreatic, and gonads glands.
- Demonstrate proficiency in assessing and treating the endocrine system using fluidic and liquid/vascular techniques at an organic level, including evaluation, and balancing of intracranial membranes, evaluation, and treatment of the third ventricle, and evaluation and treatment of motility and vasomotion in the thyroid, thymus, and adrenal glands.
- Differentiate between fluidic and liquid treatment in the osteopathic field and explain the future of “osteopathy the cranial field,” including the Blood-brain barrier (BBB), glymphatic system, and meningeal lymphatic system.
- Apply the principles learned in this course to promote health and healing through the interplay of osteopathic medicine and the neuroendocrine system in the assessment and treatment of patients with neuroendocrine-related conditions.
