Description:

No, this really isn’t a “how to” parent course, but insights into the rarely considered mechanical environment, that could influence choices we make as parents.

Most people are familiar that lying an infant on their back for extended periods of time can result in a flattening of the back of the head — a mis-shaping of the cranium in response to unnatural loads. This phenomenon of a body being shaped by the mechanical environment is happening all of the time but there is no time where the loads are more important than during those first few years when the tissues are being set.

Just as a healthy diet is necessary for kids to develop, so is a movement diet rich in nutrients. Cultural practices are often perceived as “the best” because they are “the norm.” This course explains what a more robust movement profile looks like by offering a cross cultural perspective as well as the problems with the perspective that exercise is equal to movement.

More information about Medical:

Medicine is the science and practice of establishing the diagnosis, prognosis, treatment, and prevention of disease.
Medicine encompasses a variety of health care practices evolved to maintain and restore health by the prevention and treatment of illness.

Contemporary medicine applies biomedical sciences, biomedical research, genetics, and medical technology to diagnose, treat, and prevent injury and disease,
typically through pharmaceuticals or surgery, but also through therapies as diverse as psychotherapy, external splints and traction, medical devices, biologics, and ionizing radiation, amongst others.

Medicine has been around for thousands of years, during most of which it was an art (an area of skill and knowledge) frequently having connections to the religious and philosophical beliefs of local culture.

For example, a medicine man would apply herbs and say prayers for healing, or an ancient philosopher and physician would apply bloodletting according to the theories of humorism.
In recent centuries, since the advent of modern science, most medicine has become a combination of art and science (both basic and applied, under the umbrella of medical science).

While stitching technique for sutures is an art learned through practice.

The knowledge of what happens at the cellular and molecular level in the tissues being stitched arises through science.
