Having spent the last 6 days taking two cadavers down layer by layer with a group of other bodyworkers in one of Gil Hedley's somanautics dissection workshops, I'm finding an amazing appreciation for life in all its diversity.

He spends time on connective tissue layers that get lopped off in traditional dissection classes but are the arenas of our needles, on getting a tactile understanding of body layers, relationships and functions, and you get an intimate understanding of two bodies as you explore them layer by layer from subcutaneous fat to (in our case) tumors within the liver and spleen.

I have done 48 hours of complete cadaver dissection at Naturopathic school with a PhD anatomist who later went on to become an acupuncturist. Wish he had been an acu first.

Guest guest Posted July 24, 2000 Report Share Posted July 24, 2000 I agree wholeheartedly with Karen. My experiences at the cadaver lab at the University of New Mexico's Medical School were invaluable. Nothing can compare with actually seeing how the various organs and tissues are arranged and connected within the body. Far from being a morbid experience, it was fascinating to see how large the human heart really is ( the size of your fist ) and the plexus of nerves that radiate from the spinal column, for example. If you do have a chance to engage in dissection or observation, be sure to wear clothes that can be sterilized afterwards. Treat all cadavers as if they are virus and bacteria factories. Wear gloves and face masks. Be prepared to inhale vast quantities of formaldehyde. Exempt yourself from autopses performed by the office of the medical examiner. These are quick, brutal and thoroughly disrespectful of the body. They are not for the faint-of-heart. G.
