About Anatomy Bites Podcast

This podcast aims to take the sting out of learning gross anatomy! Join Dr. Nikki-Rae Alkema, Doctor of Physical Therapy, as she combines nitty gritty neuromuscular and musculoskeletal anatomy with clinically relevant application, biomechanics, and surface palpation tips. Episodes transcend muscle origins, insertions, innervations, and actions to make meaningful connections to how a solid foundation of anatomy is critical to understanding and rehabbing the human movement system. For medical, speech/occupational/physiotherapy, nursing, DPT/PTA, pre-health students. Contact: @nikkidashrae
