Our Story
Humanatomy started as an idea way back in 2000. It began as a laminated teaching tool for Paula Jaspar's postgraduate massage therapy courses. She had positive comments every time the puzzle was used. In 2011, Paula and her husband Jason committed to creating a product that could be used for simplifying how to learn human anatomy.
As an instructor of massage therapy and gross anatomy, Paula realized that students would benefit from an inexpensive hands on learning tool.
The first step is the Humanatomy iPad App that is both a fun to play game and a powerful learning resource. With multiple levels, intelligent & customizable gameplay and beautiful imagery, Humanatomy will be your go-to resource to master human anatomy!
