Students and practitioners in the health sciences face a universal paradox: while preparing to be a caregiver to others, it’s easy to lose sight of one’s own health and well-being. Netter's Moving AnatoME: An Interactive Guide to Musculoskeletal Anatomy helps you meet and overcome this challenge in a highly personal, uniquely effective way. This movement-based, interactive resource encourages you to approach anatomy by moving while you learn, with expert guidance from online videos designed exclusively for students of anatomy. Both fun and functional, this experiential learning approach jump starts your personal commitment to self-care, wellness, and work-life balance by integrating academic material with real-life application.
