U.C. Berkeley Extension Begins Offering Anatomy Lab Courses at Life West

Editorial Staff

As of Sept. 3, the University of California Berkeley Post-Baccalaureate Health Professions Program has begun using the anatomy facilities at Life Chiropractic College West for its Human Anatomy Laboratory course.

"We are excited to work with such a prestigious program as UC Berkeley Extension," said Dr. Joseph Ferguson, Life West dean. "By offering exceptional facilities and ample support and cooperation, we aim to create a productive environment for their students to excel. It is our hope to build upon this relationship and offer additional classes over time."

As U.C. Berkeley Extension began expanding its programs into both East and South Bay regions, the university sought local facilities to accommodate its anatomy students. Easy access to both Highway 92 and I-880 freeways, along with ample parking, were valuable features making Life West an attractive choice. Future courses will be scheduled during evening and/or weekend hours when Life West classes are not in session.

Because they have yet to pass national legislation protecting the chiropractic profession, Japanese DCs are in a similar situation that U.S. DCs faced. We were fortunate enough to be able to pass chiropractic licensure state by state. The DCs in Japan must accomplish this nationally, which has proved to be an extremely difficult task. And in spite of their efforts, Japanese DCs are currently faced with two chiropractic professions.

Whiplash-Associated Disorder: Use of O’Donoghue’s Maneuver

Recently, I taught a 12-hour whiplash class to a group of chiropractors for continuing education. I taught that performing O’Donoghue’s maneuver enabled the providers to differentiate cervical strain from sprain. To my surprise, one of the attendees stated that it is not possible to diagnose a cervical strain and sprain with a whiplashed patient using O’Donoghue’s maneuver.
