Welcome to this training module dedicated to animal anatomy and physiology. Throughout this module, we will explore in detail the different anatomical systems and their operation in various animal species. We will discuss the peculiarities of each species, with an emphasis on specific adaptations related to their lifestyle and environment.
You will discover how the digestive, immune, tegumentary, endocrine, nervous, musculoskeletal, cardiovascular, respiratory, and urinary systems interact to maintain homeostasis and ensure the vital functions of the animal organism. We will also study the notable anatomical and physiological differences between mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and fish.
This in-depth knowledge of comparative anatomy and physiology is essential for any practitioner in animal naturopathy. It will enable you to adapt your recommendations and treatments according to the specific needs of each animal, while taking into account the peculiarities of its species, breed, and individuality.
Throughout this module, you will acquire the necessary foundations to assess an animal’s health, detect potential imbalances, and propose suitable and effective naturopathic interventions.
