🔥Diaphragmatic Breathing to Restore Lumbar Extension🔥
This is part 2 of the case I recently uploaded. A quick review: pt came in acute severe lumbar pain stuck in a flexed forward position. I tried IASTM and P/A mobs in prone to try to get him to be able to stand upright. That only relieved his pain but not restored extension much less neutral. Next, I tried isometric and resistance strategies in sitting to get him to extend. This got him upright, but he still couldn't even get to prone on elbows without severe stiffness. His prone on elbows looked like an on knees plank. However, instruction on long, slow, diaphragmatic breathing with the verbal cue of exhale the tension out and let your belly sag enabled him to get into the prone on elbows position, thus increasing his extension. After this he was finally able to do Repeated Extension in Standing. Hope this helps!
