Receptors
This series of two-lectures explores the ways in which the environment drives the learning and behavioral responses of our animal patients via the receptors with which it interacts. The student should realize by the end of this lecture that changes to the animal�s environment can retrain and heal the nervous system.

Receptors
Two courses that discuss the types of neuro receptors are important, since turning on these receptors is our primary job as animal chiropractors. Recognizing which receptors need to be switched on and which need to be turned off is not only a delicate procedure, but the only procedure worth doing. This course explores the ways in which the environment drives the learning and behavioral responses of our animal patients via the receptors with which it interacts. The student should realize by the end of this lecture that changes to the animal’s environment can retrain and heal the nervous system.
Receptors 1 introduces the student to ways in which the animal’s receptors are stimulated and how the receptors function, including muscle spindle cells, Pacinian corpusles, and the like.
Receptors 2 classifies the receptors based on several criteria including type of information, location and neurotransmitter used. The student will complete these two courses with a better under-standing of the environmental effects on the nervous system of the animals we serve.
