The Psoas and Diaphragm Connection with Carole Poffinbarger
This is a recording of a SOBI sponsored study group. Please note, no CE credit will be given for this recording.
The diaphragm–psoas connection shows how the diaphragm, through breathing patterns or tightness, can affect the psoas, and how the psoas can, in turn, restrict the diaphragm. These two muscles work together to stabilize the spine and, when functioning properly, promote better posture and ease of breathing.
In this study group, we will explore the anatomy and function of these two dynamic muscles, along with their relationship within the front fascial line. We will also examine the visceral, spinal, and leg components, and how they influence one another.
We will look at Phase 4 and Phase 5 exercises that may benefit individuals with these patterns. This work can support clients who have experienced injuries, challenges related to childbirth, pelvic or low back pain, scoliosis, and more.
Having a practice partner is encouraged.
