It is universally accepted that anatomy is the subject to excel in as physiotherapists use anatomic knowledge for just about everything. Anatomy is the study of the structures of the human body, including bone, ligaments, muscles, organs, vessels and nerves. While it is often assumed that simply naming the structures is enough, it never is! As physiotherapists, you will need an exemplary knowledge of the functional anatomy of the human body, i.e. you will need to understand the interplay between the structures and how their shape affects their function. Once you have this knowledge, you can begin to use it therapeutically – like achieving mechanical advantage over a moment arm, utilizing anatomic features, such as the pores found in the lungs, to provide treatment and so on. Another use of anatomic knowledge comes in the form of diagnostics. The location of pain, the area of sensory loss, the limited range of movement, the palpation, the joint movement feeling, the auscultation, etc., etc., etc. You can never overestimate the importance of anatomic knowledge for the physiotherapy clinician. Ever. It is fortunate, then, that studying anatomy can be brilliant fun!
