Grab your @neurocoffee and get ready for today’s Q & A! How are you dissociating sacral movements to pelvic orientations, and how do they show up in testing? What are your key indicators and where do you see common compensations around expected limitations based on their initial ISA/IPA presentations? My second question is based on […]

Q & A for The 16% – The Why, When, and How of Inversion Exercises
Question: From Vik: Can you discuss the utility of inverted positions? What compensatory strategies is this position useful for? What are some examples of inverted activities you use or have used? In this video: I offer a perspective on why you would want to invert a patient, client, or athlete, when inversion is a useful […]
Q & A for The 16% – Axial Iterations and Treating with Biomechanics vs. The Biopsychosocial Model
Q & A for Today… From Zhang: You’ve talked about iterations in previous videos. Does the posterior sacral area behave the same as the dorsal rostral area? Does the lower thorax behave the same as the posterior outlet, and, the anterior pubic area behaves the same as the sternum? From Johnny: as clinicians, what are […]
Q & A for The 16% – What do you do with a “normal” ISA? A right pelvic anterior tilt?
I have two great questions for today’s Q & A. Jason’s question: I recently saw a client with a 90 degree ISA that did not move at all. Additionally, he had: – Limited shoulder and hip and IR and ER – Limited shoulder and hip flexion – No true hip hyperextension – Lordotic posture Given […]
Q & A for The 16% – Exhalation Strategies for Wide Infrasternal Angle vs. Narrow Infrasternal Angle
Question: Why is it that increased airway resistance in a pursed-lip exhale has a facilitatory bias towards external oblique activation, while decreased airway resistance with an open, relaxed jaw exhale biases more internal oblique activation? Is the difference in airway resistance even the mechanism driving the bias between the different muscle groups? #infrasternalangle #breathingexercises #billhartmanpt […]
