    Dr. Carson Robertson is a native of central Montana and obtained his bachelor's degree at the University of Montana. He subsequently earned his chiropractic degree from Northwestern Health Sciences University in Minnesota in 2004.

With that in mind, his clinic has a special emphasis and expertise in athletic injuries.Dr. Robertson has also been an adjunct faculty member at Paradise Valley Community College since 2009, where he teaches Anatomy and Physiology classes. Education, information, articles, multimedia teaching materials and videos bridge the PVCC classroom and the clinic. His lovable and demanding Pug helped improve the Anatomy and Physiology curriculum, leading to the Alpha Dog Education Series.When the doctor is not working he can often be found running the trails of South Mountain. He has run multiple marathons and ultra marathons, including the Crown King Scramble 50K, Javelina 100K and Javelina 100 Miler.

      Skeletal System - Quick Review Notes Chapter 6

      Introduction

      The skeletal system is very dynamic and important to our survival. Besides the obvious production and support, it functions for blood cell production and storage of minerals. It is also a site of muscle attachments for motion and movement.

      Bones are shaped differently to provide protection. Think of your skull or cranium and how it is different than the thoracic cage. Bone shapes also allow for movement, especially when combined with muscle attachments and contraction. Bones act as levers for movement; the muscles provide the force of pulling, which pulls the bone and causes movement at the joints.

      Bones are also involved in blood cell formation. Blood cells are originally formed through hematopoiesis in the yolk sac. Hematopoiesis (blood cell production) is then performed in the marrow. There are two types of marrow: red and yellow.

      Red marrow functions in the formation of red
