Class Description:
Unlocking the Diaphragm: Techniques for Optimal Breathing
Unlock the potential of optimal breathing in this comprehensive 6 CEU class. The class will dive into the significance of effective breathing for maintaining a balanced nervous system, enhancing overall well-being, and reducing stress.
Participants will learn how to work with the diaphragm from multiple positions, including seated, supine, and side lying. Through these practical techniques, therapists will gain hands-on experience in facilitating optimal breathing patterns in their clients.
This approach is rooted in an integral anatomy mindset, which means we will not focus solely on the diaphragm but also on its indispensable helpers and will keep in mind crucial muscles interconnection through fascial relationships or synergistic actions.
We will explore techniques to address the Psoas, Quadratus Lumborum, Transverse Abdominis, Rectus Abdominis, and Intercostal muscles. The Scalene will be addressed as well. Understanding and working with these muscles is essential for a holistic approach to breathing.
In this class, therapists will:
-Gain a deep understanding of the role of the diaphragm and its impact on the nervous system.
-Learn and practice various techniques to release and strengthen the diaphragm.
-Explore the fascial and functional relationships between the diaphragm and other key muscles.
-Develop skills to enhance client breathing patterns, promoting relaxation and overall well-being.
Join us in this transformative journey to unlock the power of the diaphragm.
