Today I had the pleasure of working on someone who thought he was super man. He lifted something that was way to heavy for him and he strained is back. When he came in he was having difficulty breathing. That indicates that is ribs are probably out of alignment. I lied him in supine position which means on his back to address the muscles while they are in a relaxed and at ease posistiion. That way I can access the ribs that are out of alignment and work on the soft tissue surrounding the bones and nerves. I felt the rib that was most out of place and asked the patient to breathe deeply so the muscle memory can help assist the realignment of the bones naturally. After working on the soft tissue I had the patient turn over and precede with some deep tissue and some direct pressure along the sides of the spine. The tissue released and the bones organically realigned! The patients breathe returned. The pain subsided and it was a gratifying end to my day.
