 Medical Massage For Carpal Tunnel & Thoracic Outlet Syndrome
You can purchase the entire DVD at http://medicalmassage-edu.com European Cranio-Sacral Therapy, Thoracic Outlet Syndrome, Rotator Cuff Syndrome, Frozen Shoulder, Tennis/Golf Elbow, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, Post-Isometric Relaxation, Shoulder Rehabilitative Exercise The pathogenesis of thoracic outlet syndrome can be linked with the anatomy of the anterior scalene muscle. The anterior scalene muscle starts from the transverse processes of C3-C6, slanting downward and forward, and inserts into the first rib. When it contracts, the head bends to the same side and forward. The causes of anterior scalene muscle syndrome are: 1. Cervical spondylosis -- Spinal nerves C3-C8 provide motor innervation to the anterior scalene muscle. Their irritation or compression evokes increased tension in the anterior scalene muscle. 2. Chronic overload and muscular strain -- Chronic physical overload of the anterior scalene muscle or its strain also produce the clinical picture of anterior scalene muscle syndrome. Because the anterior scalene muscle participates in inspiration, patients with bronchial asthma frequently have anterior scalene muscle syndrome. 3. Visceral pathology -- The heart and lungs are innervated by the same segments of the spinal cord as the anterior scalene muscle. Thus, chronic cardiac and pulmonary disorders evoke reflex zones in the anterior scalene muscle and are responsible for anterior scalene muscle syndrome. Radiating pain to the left arm caused by this syndrome can also mimic heart pathology. The brachial plexus is located between the anterior scalene and middle scalene muscles. If the tonus of the anterior scalene muscle is increased, the brachial plexus is found in the sphincter between these two muscles. As a result, the brachial plexus becomes chronically irritated and produces a rich neurological picture. The spinal nerves of C7-C8 are involved to the greatest degree (C6-C7 and C7-T1 segments of spine.) Anterior scalene muscle syndrome causes an abundance of circulatory problems. The subclavian artery and vein pass between the anterior scalene muscle and the first rib. An over-tensed muscle can compress the artery and vein, or evoke their vasospasm by irritation of the brachial plexus. Compression of the subclavian artery produces symptoms of insufficient blood supply to the upper limb; compression of the subclavian vein produces symptoms of insufficient blood drainage (edema). Additionally, the anterior scalene muscle can compress the vertebral artery or evoke vasospasm by irritating its sympathetic plexus.

Removing and replacing prosthetic eye
I show a video of myself removing and replacing my prosthetic eye. After giving birth to my daughter I realized I could not see, (I had a detatched retina, in March and may of 2006 I had surgeries to reattatch the retina which both failed. So I was just left blind in my eye for life.....but January of 2007 I was having horrific pain in my eye and doctors made the decision for me to have my eye removed. After the removal of my eye they found out that I had had cancer in it. I am cancer free, and no telling what actually caused the detatched retina in the first place but I'm fine now, Just wanted to show people what a prosthetic eye looks like :) Enjoy or NOT, but keep your rude and nasty comments to yourself!!! visit my Myspace for pictures of the surgeries... http://myspace.com/natemoni Also now up a full blog of my entire story :)

beating Human heart
A human heart model developed for medical purposes. It's not my video. It was made by the Chamberlain Group which specializes in making realistic body parts for medical professionals to use. It is also posted by the group who owns the rights: http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=NI-UO6Ey7gs But a better contact would be: http://www.thecgroup.com/index.html Which explains about the whole company that produces these models.

3D Medical Animation: Heart Attack from Atherosclerosis
This 3d medical animation shows a heart attack resulting from atherosclerosis, which is inflammation of an artery. It was designed to be an immersive experience to hold the viewer's interest in this complex, slow-developing process. Every shot was conceptualized as a visual effect to evoke the sensation of a journey within a dynamic and diverse environment. Beginning with the probable cause, which is damage to the endothelial wall, the story progresses in detail through the stages of atherosclerosis concluding with the resulting damage to the heart.
