​The Neuro-Physical Reality of Domestic Abuse (Part 3)

The Neuro-Physical Reality of Domestic Abuse (Part 3) explores how sustained abuse reshapes the brain, nervous system, and body. Moving beyond emotional impact, this evidence-based course examines the neurobiology of trauma, structural brain changes, and the physical consequences of assaults such as strangulation and suffocation. Drawing on neuroscience, medical research, and forensic science, learners explore nervous system dysregulation, chronic stress, inflammation, and links to long-term illness. The course also addresses forensic and legal perspectives, highlighting how science informs policy, healthcare, and advocacy. Designed to deepen understanding and improve responses, it positions domestic abuse as a critical public health and societal issue.
