Let talk about why scapular control is so important.
The scapula (aka shoulder blade) plays an important roll in posture and shoulder movement. Imbalances in the muscles surrounding the scapula can lead to dysfunctional movements which can cause shoulder pain.
Scapular winging, as seen above, is a sign of poor scapular control. But don’t worry, it’s easily correctable! All it takes is a little retraining and awareness to gain scapular control.

Welcome to balloon breathing!
Balloon breathing is a fun and effective way to draw attention to diaphragmatic breathing.
There are two rules for balloon breathing:
1. You must keep one hand on your chest and prevent it from moving unless at the end of the breath.
2. Breath in through your nose and out through your mouth into the balloon.
The goal is to blow the balloon up!
We use balloon breathing as a tool for teaching people how to breathe deeper and stronger.
You can use Balloon breathing in any position. Here we are in a learning review in a supine position. But you can use it in any position where you want to add load while keeping a strong brace.
