EPISODE SUMMARY While it may seem ridiculous to learn how to breathe correctly, in truth we have forgotten how to do it properly. Without accurate breath managing chronic neck and lower back pain can almost be impossible. This episode Dr. Kelli will explain why and what you can do about it. ON THIS EPISODE, WE DISCUSS… The power of Breath. Dr. Kelli had the privilege of hearing from Pavel Kolar who is a physiotherapist. When we are babies we learn to breathe properly, but as we grow we change and become shallow breathers that cause neck and back pains. Dr. Kelli explains how breathing naturally through your diaphragm will help your muscles stretch, ligaments, and bones move to the positions they should be. Being overweight can cause weakness in the abdomen and cause problems for your discs. Chronic neck pain can be caused by not breathing properly because of the strain you are putting on your muscles. Dr. Kelli will walk you through stretches that will help retrain yourself on how to breathe properly. This is just as easy as thinking about it. Intension is the trigger. Do this for 10 mins a day for 2 weeks and you will reboot your computer. Once this becomes more comfortable you may notice you are able to breathe this way doing normal day to day living. There is no good reason to not learn how to breathe right. It can even help with menstruation. https://8minutestoagless.kartra.com/page/Ep19 CALLS-TO-ACTION: Get a copy of the book on Amazon.

Today Doug Sauer and Sheila Mahler have on the show, a very special guest from Brisbane Australia Ryan Craig.Ryan grew up in Brisbane Australia, in a baptist family. He had a relationship with God that He took for granted and didn't fully apprehend when younger. He Showed little interest in adolescent years and came to a personal faith in his university years. Ryan began attending a Pentecostal church at that point (2014), where he was introduced to a spiritual reality within Christianity. Ryan attended Australian Catholic University for my bachelor of physiotherapy, graduated in 2016. Ryan and a friend of his started an on campus church called Alive ACU during his studies.He has pursued ongoing learning since graduating quite intensely. Ryan was drawn to private practice and began my career with a goal to identify a biblical approach to physiotherapy. He quotes, God  has tempered me a lot since then/over 3 years of practice. I am not as dogmatic as I was, hopefully still as zealous.Ryan's university training was largely biomedical, and in practice he felt this limited therapeutic potential. He quotes, A biblical worldview tells us that ‘we are more than just the sum of the parts' (therefore we are gestalt) - and so manipulating and modifying the parts on there own i felt was not the most optimal approach to therapy (or development, or performance).DNS focuses on global movement patterns to rehabilitate function and in doing so, improved pain and injury. He feel's this is a better approach, make the tree good and the fruit will be good too.A message ryan would like to share is - God can provide wisdom to reform the professions, DNS is a good tool for this within physiotherapy. There is a moral imperative we are neglecting in the movement professions. Movement has a spiritual and moral component. Dynamic neuromuscular stabilization (DNS), protocols based on the teachings and treatment programs of Pavel Kolar, physiotherapist by training who holds a doctorate in pediatrics, and Karel Lewit, MD, known as the father of manual medicine.

SHOW NOTES Have pain you don’t consider an injury but it lingers? Are you strong but constantly experience joint pain? Is your squatting form solid but your back still hurts? This is the podcast for you. Honestly this could be the most ground breaking concept you’ve ever hear as an athlete, lifter, runner or even health care clinician. I met Dr. Richard Ulm DC in Long Beach this year at the Perform Better Summit, where he was speaking about the concept of Functional Capacity, Functional Gap and Compensation Patterns. The concepts he talks about in this podcast are derived from Vladimir Janda’s Lower Cross Syndrome and furthered by the work from Pavel Kolar. Dr. Ulm takes the concepts of both and translates them to high performance movements and the compound movements we use in the gym every day.

"It's so valuable to have a sustainable relationship with your body. Movement is medicine. People don't need doctors, chiropractors, or physical therapists. What they need is to become more active and that's when the personal trainer is the conductor of the locomotive system." - Dr. Craig Liebenson on how we can recover with the power of  functional movement   Join The Open Sky Fitness Podcast Group! That's right! We have a closed Open Sky Fitness Podcast group  on Facebook where you and everyone have the opportunity to talk about your health and fitness goals in a safe environment. We post workouts and start discussions about how to be strategic around finding a healthier you. Check it out!   The Power of Functional Movement with Dr. Craig Liebenson On this week's episode, chiropractor, Director of L.A. Sports & Spine, professor, and author, Dr. Craig Liebenson joined us to discuss how we can stabilize and strengthen our bodies. But before Rob got into the interview with Dr. Liebenson, Devon and him wanted to talk about an awesome app that one of our OSF Facebook group members mentioned called Meetup.   Meetup App: Get Motivated to Stay Healthy   If you're struggling to stay fit and healthy, one great method to try is using the Meetup App. Look up people who are interested in doing similar activities as you such as hiking, biking, yoga, CrossFit etc so you can all workout together. When you find a group of people who have similar interests as you, it can really boost your motivation.  Another great thing about the Meetup app is that it's not just for meeting up to do sports or physical activity. You can also use it to talk to people about topics in your field, about family, or education, etc. It's a great way to make connections and network with people in your area.   Benefits of Functional Movement Exercises By now you've probably noticed that a lot of exercises that are explained in health magazines or online videos only focus on isolated movements of one problem area. However, what we should be focusing on to help us avoid injuries and physical limitations are functional movement exercises. Why are functional movement exercises so important for our health? It's important because all of the different parts of the body are connected. Therefore, you may have to focus on healing one part of the body to be rid of the pain in a totally different area. Functional movement is about keeping our muscles strong as we go through life. It's about being able to bend, squat, and kneel without any pain as well as prevent falls, be spry, and move well when we're older   Investigate and Heal the Root of Your Pain   "Functional training is not a general thing. It's a very specific thing and is meaningful to the individual. There are different things that a tennis player needs to focus on compared to a runner." - Dr. Craig Liebenson   Just as our bodies are unique, so are our pains and injuries. To discover the root of your pain or ache, you have to look for hidden skeletons. The better you know your body, the more dependent you will be on yourself to find, treat, and heal any pain or soreness. If you seek out a chiropractor, physical therapist, and/or personal trainer, they should all be working together and cheer you on during the entire process. Don't be discouraged if you get to the point when you no longer believe that there is hope to healing your pain. We can turn our bodies around at any age. To begin feeling more active, just focus on simple movements and getting up during the day.   Recover with Functional Movement   "Everybody is an athlete in my mind. If you have a body, you're an athlete. I want everyone to develop a sustainable relationship with their body." - Dr. Craig Liebenson   To begin to heal his patients with functional movement, Dr. Craig Liebenson starts from the very beginning by looking at their chronological pasts. By learning what people have done in the past or their genetic history, he can understand what their body is capable of and what needs to be improved to boost their functional capacity. With that knowledge, Dr. Liebenson teaches his patients how they should be moving and how to improve their mobility by simply modifying their movements when performing physical activities.   Healing & Strengthening Your Body at Home   To get started with healing your body through functional movement, you don't even have to leave your home. Just spend some time with yourself  to think about where the root of your pain may be located in your body. After reviewing your history including pains, injuries, and stresses, focus on where your current pain is located. What have you done before to treat that area and what are your triggers? Triggers can be anything that irritates the body such as a movement or stretch. By just modifying your body's movements, you can naturally stabilize and strengthen tissues without any weight lifting.    Examples of Functional Movement Exercises   "Functional training is first about stability and then strength" - Dr. Craig Liebenson   When it comes to healing the body, don't do specific isolated movements or spot training. Instead, you want to retrain the body with functional movemnet patterns.  Examples of functional movements for the knee when you need to stabilize and strengthen it include: Lateral squats Single dead lifts Basic exercises that can help begin the process of including more functional movement in your workouts include: Hip thrusts Glute bridges   Don't Just Sit There, Get Up and Move To have an active body, we need to be continuously focusing on functional movement. The simplest way for us to get started is to stop staying in a sedentary position for so long and just walk around. This is very important if you have a desk job and let's face it, these days we're all glued to our computers at work. Try to find a way by adding movement to your day by either getting a Fitbit to motivate you, buy a standing desk, or take microbreaks during the day just to get up and walk around for awhile. It doesn't have to be difficult to be active during the day.    The Power of Functional Movement Each Day When we stay inactive during the day, it can lead to other health problems that can be even more difficult to reverse such as obesity, Type 2 Diabetes, dementia, Alzheimer's, heart disease, cancer, and more.   About Dr. Craig Liebenson Dr. Craig Liebenson is the Director of L.A.
