Super Bowl 2020: How the 49ers & Conor McGregor are bound by a therapy method yielding results for both
...There aren't many similarities between the San Francisco 49ers and Conor McGregor.
..."After a game when you get hit a bunch of times, your body's kind of out of whack and they always help me get it back to square one which allows me to play week in, week out.
...Getting the body in the right alignment is a key tenet of the Egoscue Method, and Bradley's influence in assisting McGregor in that regard was a factor in his devastating 40-second win over Cowboy....

EDUCATION CORNER by Rick Mathes
(Egoscue Austin)
Now, here’s why it is critical that you do your menus if you’re an existing client, and start doing them if you aren’t. Right now we’re in the middle of a pandemic with a virus that attacks the respiratory tract. So, here’s a question for you to consider: do you breathe in a bio-mechanically functional way? Is your breath function strong and robust? Most people don’t think about how they breathe but I'd guesstimate that at least 85% of the new clients walking in our door have dysfunctional breathing patterns, and those are often posturally driven. Here’s a test for you to try: sit on the front of a hard chair, sit up tall but comfortably pinch your shoulder blades lightly together and down towards your waist, now take a few deep breaths and just notice how it feels. Now, slump, intentionally put yourself into lousy posture. Take a few deep breaths. You just discovered the linkage between being able to breathe fully and the position of your upper back and shoulders. Right now you MUST be doing work to ensure your mid (thoracic) back and shoulders are in functional positions AND that your diaphragm is working properly. And one clue: the diaphragm absolutely depends on other muscles doing THEIR jobs to enable it to do its own.
If you cannot deliver oxygen to the bottom of your lungs, then if you get a minor upper respiratory tract infection that deposits some fluid into the bottom of your lungs, then your ability to expel that fluid is severely compromised. And if that fluid just sits there, now you have a very serious problem.
If you have menus from us, do them! If you’re a client on an active therapy schedule, keep it! We are going to be assessing breathing function of every client at every appointment and making any necessary adjustments to   immediately   improve it. If you know people who need to be improving and optimizing their breath function, please tell them about us. You’ll be doing us both a favor. 
Note from Kathy: The video below has 3 exercises to begin to open your mid-back so that you can start breathing better. Remember, if any of them hurt for any reason, don't do them. It's OK to skip one and go to the next. Let us know how you do!
Here are 3 exercises to improve mid-back pain or just open a tight mid-back. (Video Below)
