@postrestinst@Nathan2113 using basic PRI techniques and a foot orthotic to bring my spine back into neutral position, fixing my posture allowing my muscles to relax, engaging my diaphragm, and getting my muscles, and entire body to finally be able to relax and to breathe (ebb and flow) again.
@niko_schr You don’t have to do stretching/mobility work if your nervous system knows how to keep tissues at lengths and tensions that work for your ideal performance. Postural Restoration techniques are the game changer here. @postrestinst
@ThatWhiteDude83 @GavinOtte@postrestinst@postrestinst are leaders in breathing & movement mechanics.
I’ve had issues with my low back & hip since I was 22.
PRI principles & exercises are the only things that help.
Follow @EricCressey he is a top G in this field too. Works with pro athletes.

@DrFantasyDad Most of the literature is going to refer to it as a Positive Obers Test but we are not performing this test for IT Band activity but rather bony, osseous restriction! Have to refine your search to include "obers test"
Congratulations to the Postural Restoration Trained™ (PRT) Class of 2023!

@chrisullomdc @DanBockmannDC@RonHruska Plenty of Citations, for this convo, specifically in our Respiration Course... Here's some thoughts on "posture" https://t.co/1qG1hnhPYH
@chrisullomdc @DanBockmannDC@RonHruska We look at posture very differently than most of the research because of the scope they are performing it in. Posture is a reflection of many dynamic systems being held up against gravity. Anyone looking solely at the spinal column, is not having the same discussion.
@DanBockmannDC @chrisullomdc @RonHruska Neurologically we are patterned around the tensengrity of our systems. B/c of our biased behavior and cortical dominance, sometimes integrity is lost due to too much compression on one side and too little on the other, lack of pressure management thus leads to maladaptive form...
The neurology that is required to balance our weight is designed around tension. Our integrity of floating compression is like a structural binary tree. We are built around isolated components of anatomy under compression inside us. Loss of this tensegrity leads to inchoate form.
@rkgar The natural asymmetry of both brain & body & strategies we put into place to manage these internal biodynamics are a major factor in how it influences outward appearances. Might be worth a visit to @postrestinst in Lincoln to speak w/ @RonHruska if you’d like to explore deeper😉
Yes, the knee is supposed to rotate.
No, it shouldn’t be the only show in town (lack of hip and/or ankle rotation).
No, it’s not supposed to live in a single state of rotation (i.e., tibia IR’d or ER’d relative to femur).
(Paraphrasing Dan Houglum)
