The diaphragm is a well understood muscle in breathing. What is not well understood and taught is the role it has in lumbar and thoracic spinal stabilizing. East-West Breathing: Back Breathing and the Deep Stabilizing System details how the scapulae is aligned on the thorax and what its direct relationship is to the abdominal wall. The DVD explains why this relationship is imperative to normal torso movement and is essential in the 22,000 breaths a human typically takes in a day. The DVD also explains and demonstrates several exercises that support this movement.
Among the topics covered:
