2. Evaluate respiratory dysfunction in relation to musculoskeletal issues
3. Evaluate shortened fascial and muscular aspects
4. Evaluate postural deviations and perform techniques to correct them through functional diaphragmatic breathing techniques and correct core facilitation
5. Describe pathologies related to less than optimal respiratory function
6. Demonstrate effective techniques to alter respiratory patterns and trunk core stability
7. Inform their patient population about breathing pattern disorders and empower the patient to be more involved in their recovery and maintenance of their issues
