Показать описание
John Gibbons is a registered Osteopath, Lecturer and Multi-published Author and in this video he will be teaching the anatomy of the brachial plexus.

This comes from the Level of C5-T1 and forms from 5 nerve roots, 3 trunks, 6 divisions, 3 cords and 5 branches that he will discuss further in this video.

He mentions the following nerves in-depth

Musculocutaneous, Axillary, Radial, Median and Ulna nerve

John shows you in his other neurological videos to assess the nerve root level of the adductors (obturator nerve through L3 reflex), patella tendon (femoral nerve through L4 reflex), semitendinosus (tibial / sciatic nerve of L5 reflex) and Achilles / plantar (tibial nerve of sciatic through S1 reflex) and a normal response is classified as 2++. Any reduced hypo-reflex (1+) or increased hyper-reflex (3+++) with Clonus and Babinski positive as might indicate some form of upper motor neurone lesion like Multiple sclerosis, stroke, spinal cord tumour or brain injury. Any altered reflex will need further investigation as a possibility of disc or neural pathology. These techniques and more is taught on the Neurological Master-Class at the University of Oxford.

In terms of his courses he offers, you can attend one at a time if you prefer or book all ten and receive a discount.

I apologies for 2 mistakes - one at 8.05 as I should have said 'Tennis elbow' is caused by the ECRB tendon rather than carpal tunnel. Also the Ulna nerve supplies Adductor Pollicis so no Longus or Brevis - at 18.08
