In this video, John discusses the functional anatomy of the thoracic spine.
Osteopath, lecturer and author John Gibbons offers an accessible introduction to the Online courses and is a comprehensive, must-have roadmap from firstly understanding all of the related functional anatomy, through to assessing and subsequently treating the region of the human body. The course text is enriched with anatomical drawings throughout, with detailed explanations which accompany the lessons. The literature is complimented by the associated videos which further explain and expand upon topics.
