3D Anatomy Trains | 1.88 GB

The 'Anatomy Trains' is a revolutionary way of analyzing soft-tissue patterns, and developing strategies for unwinding these patterns via fascial and myofascial work. Using the metaphor of train lines, Tom Myers explains how patterns of strain communicate through the myofascial 'webbing', contributing to postural compensation and movement stability.

Anatomy Trains DVD-ROM brings this concept to life in visually memorable 3D. A high resolution interactive 3D model of human musculature - with the anatomy trains lines, tracks, and stations - provide a unique map of the major myofascial continuities in the human body. The models can be rotated 360, labelled and are supplemented by text descriptions and videos.

Combination views, to show the complex relationships of two or more lines, have also been included.

Anatomy Trains also contains content from Interactive Functional Anatomy including 46 interactive muscle function animations showing muscle function during common movements, gross motor function and anatomy and functional anatomy text.

Reviews
As an acupuncture and bodywork practitioner I find The Anatomy Trains DVD-Rom an easy to use reference work and a useful study aid. There is a wealth of information available, of which I feel I have only scratched the surface so far.
