Anatomy & Physiology for Myomassologists Endocrine System Endocrine System Description: Functions: A group of glands that work in partnership with the nervous system and affect bodily activities by releasing chemical messengers (hormones) into the blood. These hormones can take several minutes or up to several hours to bring about their responses. Help control the internal environment by regulating the chemical composition of the body Helps the body respond to emergency situations and demands Assumes the roles for smooth & sequential growth and development of the body Contributes to the basic processes of reproduction Endocrine Glands: Hypothalamus – considered part of the nervous system, also produces and releases hormones, thus is considered and neuro-endocrine organ. It’s primary function is homeostasis, it’s primary influence is over the pituitary gland. Pituitary - ‘the master’ gland regulates numerous body activities, with the major one being growth Thyroid - controls metabolism in the body Parathyroid - promotes the release of calcium from bone Randy Fillion NCTMB 1 Anatomy & Physiology for Myomassologists Endocrine System Adrenal - assists with metabolism during both normal AND emergency situations promotes in the maturing of the reproductive system helps establish the immune system Pineal Thymus - The Endocrine system can be related to the Eastern Chakra system, correlating energy centers with organ location, and autonomic nervous system plexus and functional aspects. Many Eastern healing traditions work form this perspective. Structures That Contain Endocrine Tissue: Pancreas - the Islets of Langherhans – insulin production Ovaries - produce estrogen & progesterone Testes - produce testosterone Kidney - calcium absorption Stomach - produce gastric juices Small Intestine - produce digestive enzymes Placenta - growth of off-spring Effects of Massage on the Endocrine System – Increase blood circulation increase lymph circulation Randy Fillion NCTMB 2 Anatomy & Physiology for Myomassologists Endocrine System Label the following endocrine glands on the diagram below: A.

Thymus Adrenal Ovary Pancreas Teste Pineal Hypothalamus Pituitary Thyroid Parathyroid Randy Fillion NCTMB 3 Anatomy & Physiology for Myomassologists Endocrine System Anterior Pituitary Hormones Growth Hormone (GH) Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) Adreno-coricotropic hormone (ACTH) Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) Luteinizing Hormone (LH) Lactogenic Hormone (PRL) Posterior Pituitary Hormones Anti-diuretic Hormone Oxytocin Anterior Pituitary Hormones Growth Hormone Also called somatotropin; stimulates most body cells to increase in size and divide. Major target organs are bones and muscles. Release can be inhibited by emotional deprivation, insomnia, high blood sugar, and high blood fat levels. Growth hormone disturbances are associated with chronic pain disorders such as fibromyalgia. Thyroid Stimulating Hormone A tropic hormone that maintains thyroid health, controls the release of thyroid hormones and produces TSH more often in responses to cold temperatures. Adrenocorticotropic Hormone Promotes and maintains normal growth and development of the adrenal cortex, it stimulates the release of glucocorticoids and androgens. Stress, mild-to-moderate fevers, and hypoglycemia increase the amount of ACTH secreted. Glucocorticoids are known to suppress the immune system. Follicle-stimulating Hormones In both men and women, stimulates hormones related to the reproductive organs/system. Luteinizing Hormone In women, causes ovulation and in men, stimulates the production and secretion of testosterone. Prolactin Found in men and women, hormones combine in breast development, and are involved in milk production. Receptors in prolactin suggest immune system involvement. Randy Fillion NCTMB 4 Anatomy & Physiology for Myomassologists Endocrine System Posterior Pituitary Hormones Antidiuretic Hormone - also known as vasopressin. Massage, Stress and Hormones Stimulates kidneys to remove water from urine and release it into the bloodstream. Release of ADH is stimulated by pain, anxiety, nicotine, tranquilizers, and low BP. Release of ADH is inhibited by alcohol. Massage and bodywork reduces the perception of pain and anxiety. Oxytocin Stimulates smooth muscle contraction, especially in the uterus. Is released in great amounts prior to childbirth, stimulates milk letdown, and is found in men to suggest bonding and to enhance parental behavior. Massage, Stress and Adrenal Function In a one hour massage, it is suggested that in the first 15 minutes to work using more vigorous methods to use up catecholamines and then transition into a more soothing method to enhance and support the relaxation response of the parasympathetic system over the remaining 45 minutes. As a general rule of thumb, for every 15 minutes of catecholamine-generated sympathetic activity the body needs 45 minutes of parasympathetic balancing time. In a healthy person, sympathetic activity account for 25% of daily actions followed by 25% of parasympathetic activity and the remaining 50% a combo of the two. It is proposed that today this rarely happens, and the body can’t keep up with life’s demands which further leads to imbalances, and dysfunction.
