THE PSOAS ONLINE COURSE: A Relational Regional Approach incl the Diaphragm, Spine, Thorax & Pelvis – WITH STEVEN GOLDSTEIN – via zoom meeting.

Join Steven Goldstein as he presents the relational aspect of working with the Psoas. Key to this is its relationship with the diaphragm as it needs to be viewed as an essential relation. Also treatment of the spine, thorax and pelvis are viewed as essential for optimal psoas functioning and understanding the effects that breathing has on this dynamic relationship.
