#Repost @ascoltostudio with @make_repost ・・・ 每次有病人因頸痛😣而來求診，我發現這條由心包上端延伸上頸椎第4️⃣節（下至胸椎第4️⃣節）的心包韌帶都多數要出場 - 他有點靠左，但也會影響右邊。我最近自己也被這韌帶卡住了，頸比平時更硬，側睡尤其不舒服，後來自己做了一點治療，完全沒有觸及頸椎，就好起來了。(Barral Institute 的VM4就是有關胸腔的手法治療技巧👐🏼） 心包是甚麼？心包其實是一個用來保護心臟免受感染的兩層膜，有纖維層和漿液層，他也需要有不同方位的韌帶連繫頸椎、胸骨和橫隔膜，以好好固定心臟。 所以心包韌帶有緊張，上背和頸部就很有可能有活動受限了。 11月的工作坊讓我們再探討多一點點這個重要又「硬淨」的身體部位🤓 圖片取自 The Fasciae by Dr Serge Paoletti (DO) Every time patients came for treatment due to neck pain, and I found that most of the time, this #Vertebropericardial ligament would be in tension. It has more fibres to the left side of the neck spine yet it also affects the right side. Recently I got neck discomfort due to tension of this ligament and this stiffened up my neck & I felt awkward sleeping in side lying position. So I treated myself and the symptoms gone (VM4 class from Barral Institute is about thorax and it covers the technique for treating pericardial ligaments). So what exactly is pericardium? It is a double-walled sac consisting a fibrous-elastic layer and a serous layer, with a cavity in between, to protect the heart from infection and to stabilize the heart within mediastinum. If these pericardial ligaments have tension, upper back and neck ‘s movement could be also affected. We would explore more about this important and “stubborn” area of our bodies in the neck and shoulder workshop in November 🤓 Drawing is taken from the 📖 The Fasciae by Dr Serge Paoletti (DO) #頸椎 #頸痛 #內臟手法治療 #筋膜リリース #筋膜 #脊椎健康 #neckpainrelief #spinehealth #upperbackpain #openyourchest #upperbackstretch #flexibility #visceralmanipulation #barralinstitute #pericardium #hearthealth #thorax #thoracicspine #thoracicmobility #physiotherapy #osteopathy #osteopathicmedicine #alternativetreatment #holistichealth #ascoltostudio #neckandshoulderpain #osteopatia #fisioterapia

Young Medical and Healthcare Professional Summer Programme group C2 DAY 3- Trip to Peak Castle hospital( 青山醫院), Biomedical sciences and anatomy class. Peak Castle Hospital (青山醫院）visit: After touring around Peak Castle hospital, I now perceive the hospital differently. Getting a peak into the services provided are : Adult psychiatry, Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, Forensic Psychiatry, Psychogeriatrics, Rehabilitation and Community Psychiatric services. The facilities are very clean and new so it is easy for patients to walk around feeling at home. School of Biomedical sciences: For the lab session, we took some milk and citric acid poured them into a mixture. As you can see Caesin molecule in milk which is negatively charged. When citric acid is added the mixture is then neutralizes the proteins. Anatomy class: We learnt quite a few body parts which are : Surface anatomy of the anterior chest wall, thoracic cage, chest wall, mediastinum, pericardium, coronary arteries, lungs, hilum of the lungs, diaphragm, lymphatics in the thorax, lymphatics in the abdomen, lymphatics in the groin, lymphatics in the axilla and lymphatics in the head. The most interesting was the Thoracic cage. How the 1-7 ribs are called true ribs (attached directly to sternum), 8-10 ribs are false ribs (attached to the 7 costal cartilage, and 11-12 ribs are floating ribs (no anterior attachments to any ribs) #hku #med #program #youngmedicalandhealthcareprofessionalsummerprogramme #problems #anatomy #biomedicalscience #biomed #gowns #mentalhealth #health #medicine#C2 #day3 #selfie #blogger #likeforlikes #mentaldisorders #lab #laboratory #Thoraciccage #ribs #chestwall #thorax #abdomen #groin #axilla

With Typhoon Haima, i finally could finish studying the chapter on heart and pericardium from Ron's Visceral Manipulation on Thorax study group. Still a quiz and two more chapters (pleura, mediastinum & plexi) to go before completing the whole VM on Thorax! #keepitup #studytime #lovelife #visceralmanipulation #barralinstitute #lifeofatherapist #manualtherapy #bodywork #physiotherapist #osteopath #massagetherapist #VM4 #knowledgeispower #knowyouranatomy
