Hi,
It is a diploma level City and Guilds (UK) I'm doing this A & P as a prerequisite for a Swedish massage course at a private company that does various beauty and holistic courses. I have already submitted an answer explaining in detail the muscle contraction, but as I haven't used these two particular words to describe it, she won't pass me!
