Take A Breath For Posture: An Interview with Mary Massery, PT, DPT, DSc
Got kids with low tone? poor posture? slumped over? speech delays? motor delays? There might be a connection between the diaphragm, their ability to create pressure and their posture. Dr. Mary Massery, PT, DPT, DSc, is known for her multi-system approach to analyzing motor dysfunction; recognizing the interactions between the cardiovascular-pulmonary, musculoskeletal, neuromuscular, integumentary and internal organ systems, and determining which system is the primary deterrent to optimal motor function and which system is likely a consequence of those interactions. This is the primary message of her continuing education presentations and patient consultations. In this episode we discuss the relationship between abdominal pressure and posture, proximal pressure and its role in distal force, using tools such as abdominal binders to support posture and relooking at the diaphragm as a posture regulator. An episode you will enjoy! For pediatric physical therapists, physical therapists, occupational therapists and parents of children with special needs. You will never look at the core the same way again.
