Australian School of Awareness

The Anatomy & Physiology course is available through correspondence. Howerver, where possible it would be better if the student could study in-house so as to get the student/teacher interaction.

Levels 1 & 2
The study of Anatomy & Physiology is the basis of all health related professions. This course offers a basic understanding of the structures and functions of the human body and assumes that the student has no previous knowledge of the subject.

The human body is made up of several levels of structural organisation and the student will be introduced to these levels of organisation and how they work together to maintain the health of the body. This nowledge will help the student to better understand what happens to the body when it is injured, stressed or diseased.

Anatomy & Physiology is a pre-requisite of the Australian School of Awareness Holistic Aromatherapy Diploma Course. If you have previously completed a similar course, at a recognised training college, exemptions may apply at the disgression of the Director of Studies.

Musculoskeletal Anatomy Level 3
Musculoskeletal Anatomy is the study of the muscles of the body, the muscle attachments, functions and actions of the muscles and the skeletal structure and the make up of the body.

Upon completion, of this component, the therapist is able to palpate the muscles individually and will understand the connection between muscle function to join action.

Students enrolled in ASA Holistic Aromatherapy Diploma Course must complete this component prior to entering Level 4 of the Aromatherapy courses.

Whole Health Pathology Level 4
Pathology is the study of the degeneration of the cells/body tissues into a diseased state. All health practitioners need to understand how to observe symptoms, as they present themselves, what causes disease and how to alleviate the problems that occur when the body is not functioning at optimum levels of health.

Further to this, preventative measures will be taught to the student at the same level as is taught to nurses, training for their nursing certificates. This will enable the therapist to advise their clients, in an informative and knowledgeable manner. Students enrolled in the ASA Aromatherapy courses must complete this component prior to entering Level 5 of the Diploma course.
