Breathing Essentials: The Anatomical Details

Respiration and the Impact on Health, Posture, Pain, Movement and Performance.

What you'll learn

What will the student take away from this course?

The student will learn a good basic understanding of the anatomy and function of breathing.

If the student understands anatomy of the region, this will improve outcomes in learning to breathe correctly.

The student will understand the material is based on science.

Requirements

Are you suffering from neck pain, headaches, back pain and hip pain? Are you slowly collapsing in height? Is your performance lacking in sports?

Breathing Essentials will give you the tools necessary to alleviate Breathing Pattern Disorders in the pursuit of ideal posture and motion.

In this first course on anatomy and function, the student will be taught the anatomy and function of the respiratory system. There is no ying and yang in this course. The material in this course is based on valid evidence in the studies and current research.

Description

Dysfunction of the respiratory complex, trunk muscular imbalances, muscular inhibition and weakness, myofascial restrictions, loss of axial rotation and chronic hyperventilation, all have significant effects on posture, trunk stability, chronic pain, upper extremity and lower extremity function and motion.  This seminar is the second of six seminars that will enable the student to connect the negative effects of dysfunction of respiration and generate answers on the management of these issues.      This seminar deals with the anatomy and function of respiration. Taking one or all of the seminars will provide the essential tools necessary for recognizing and strategies for alleviating Breathing Pattern Disorders in the Pursuit of Ideal Posture and Motion.

This is an excellent course for anyone who is suffering from some type of spine pain, dysfunction and limitations.,The concepts in this course are simple and strive to educate the student on their anatomy and function of their muscular and spinal structures as they deal with gravity and motion.,Once a student understands the anatomy and function of respiration, they can follow the details on how to correct dysfunctional breathing patterns.
