Posture and balance are often treated as mechanical problems—strengthen this, stabilize that, cue alignment and hope it sticks.
But what if we’re missing a foundational driver that quietly influences all of it?
In this live webinar, internationally recognized physical therapist Mary Massery joins PN Medical Chief Scientist Dr. Nina Bausek to explore the often-overlooked relationship between breathing mechanics, trunk stability, posture, and balance —across both pediatric and adult populations.
This session is designed for clinicians, caregivers, and curious professionals who want a deeper, more integrated understanding of movement.
WHAT YOU’LL LEARN
- How breathing mechanics interact with trunk stability and postural control
- Why balance challenges may persist despite strength and alignment work
- How developing and injured nervous systems rely on pressure management and breathing strategies
- Clinical insights that bridge theory, research, and real-world practice
- New ways to observe posture and balance through a respiratory lens
WHY THIS MATTERS
By understanding breathing as part of the postural system, clinicians and caregivers can rethink assessment, cueing, and progression in a way that supports more efficient, adaptable movement.
This webinar offers a reframing that complements—not replaces—what you already know.
