This course offers a way to learn to understand the nervous system as a terrain in permanent interaction with the rest of the body — digestive, hormonal, immune — rather than as an isolated mechanism. It conveys clear and cautious clinical markers: never a diagnosis, never a prediction, always an aid to listening better and referring better.
To any therapist in integrated medicine, beginner or experienced, who wishes to enrich their understanding of the nervous system — stress, sleep, mood, memory, neurological pain — as a complement to, never a replacement for, their practice and medical advice. No formal medical prerequisite is necessary.
The backbone of the entire course: this introduction never makes a diagnosis, never replaces medical advice, and explicitly recalls, module after module, the signs that require a referral to a healthcare professional — particularly in the face of a convulsive seizure, a sudden neurological deficit or a suicidal thought.
This course is complete and stands on its own. For the therapist who wishes to go further in their clinical practice, the Specialisation Pack in Functional Neurology (500 CHF, individual mentoring and advanced case study) is offered separately on campus.frmi.ch — as a natural deepening, never as a reduced version of this introduction.
