Importance of Hands-on Learning in Anatomy

Studying anatomy in the dissection lab allows massage therapists to see the human body in three dimensions, providing a depth and volume that is not possible with two-dimensional images. Being in the lab also allows students to observe the scale of anatomical structures and gain a better understanding of anatomical variation. Additionally, the dissection lab offers the opportunity to see all the intricacies and connections within the body that are often missing from drawings and models. This hands-on experience helps therapists better visualize and appreciate the complexity of the human body, leading to more compassionate care.
