In this episode of the Unreal Results podcast, I talk about the connection of the thoracic cavity, most notably the lungs, and its impact on athletic performance, particularly during allergy season. I specifically talk about a case study with an athlete of mine who was dealing with foot pain and how the LTAP lead me to treating his lungs, ultimately resolving his foot symptoms.  I also give detailed techniques for treating restrictions in the lungs, including bronchial tube stretching. The episode is filled with practical advice on assessment and treatment strategies, which I hope you utilize the next time you work with a client similar to this.
