Course Information

This advanced lecture and lab course is structured so that clinicians will gain an appreciation for the patterned respiration influences on: rib torsion, asymmetrical oblique strength, costal and crural function, habitual use of accessory respiratory musculature, and a positionally restricted diaphragm. The focus of this course will be to assess and restore polyarticular muscular chain function of both hemi-lateral thoraxes and their respective pleura. Treatment interventions including manual and non-manual techniques to restore reciprocal and alternating respiratory and rotational function of the thorax will be covered. Participants will be able to immediately apply PRI clinical assessment and intervention strategies when treating diagnoses that are related to undesirable airflow patterns, such as shortness of breath, thoracic outlet syndrome, and shoulder dysfunction.

Live Stream courses will be engaging, interactive and include demonstration of objective testing and/or non-manual techniques, in addition to course attendees being able to ask questions throughout the course. All that’s needed on your end is reliable internet access, a webcam, microphone and speaker (or a smart phone can be used if you do not have a computer or laptop with this capability). The course manual will be shipped directly to you 1-2 weeks before the course. *International registrants will receive access to a digital version of the course manual. I In addition, participants will receive access to the recording of the live stream course for 14 days to review the material, and re-watch any material that may have been missed due to connection issues. Those who attend in-person during a live streamed course will also receive access to the recording for 14 days. Extensions beyond this 14 day review are not available. ***Please note: In order to receive access to the recording for review, you must participate in person on the Live Stream course with your camera on for at least half of the course (8 hours). If you sign up for the course and do not participate in at least 8 hours of the live stream, you will not receive the recording and you will not be refunded.

Recognize relationships between static asymmetrical respiration, ideal physiologic respiration, and patterned respiration.
Identify how to restore restrictive polyarticular chains and torsional patterns of the trunk through specific manual and non-manual orientation of ventilatory muscle, and thoracic osseous structure.
Recognize how to maximize thoracic scapular force couples, rib alignment, and abdominal-diaphragm muscle integration for appropriate motor and sensory perceptual skill development of the upper extremities.
Outline how to design a postural isolation and inhibition program that promotes integration of appropriate hemi-thoracic airflow to reduce occupational, leisure, and sleep breathing dysfunction patterns.

Anatomy

Anterior Interior Chain (AIC)
Muscles: Diaphragm, Psoas, Iliacus, TFL, Vastus Lateralis, Biceps Femoris
Opposition Muscles: Hamstrings, Gluteals, Internal Obliques
There are two anterior interior polyarticular muscular chains in the body that have a significant influence on respiration, rotation of the trunk, ribcage, spine and lower extremities. They are composed of muscles that attach to the costal cartilage and bone of rib seven through twelve to the lateral patella, head of the fibula and lateral condyle of the tibia. These two tracts of muscles, one on the left side of the interior thoraco-abdominal-pelvic cavity and one on the right, are composed of the diaphragm and the psoas muscle. With the iliacus, tensor fasciae latae, biceps femoris and vastus lateralis muscles this chain provides the support and anchor for abdominal counter force, trunk rotation and flexion movement.

Brachial Chain (BC)
Muscles: Anterior-Lateral Intercostals, Deltoid-Pectoral, Sibson’s Fascia, Triangularis Sterni, Sternocleidomastoid, Scaleni, Diaphragm
Opposition Muscles: Triceps, Lower Trapezius, Abdominal Obliques
There are two brachial polyarticular muscular chains lying over the anterior pleural and cervical area. These chains influence cervical rotation, shoulder dynamics and apical inspirational expansion. They are composed of muscle that attaches to the costal cartilages and bone of ribs four through seven and xiphoid to the posterior, inferior occipital bone, anterior, inferior mandible and coracoid process of scapula. These two tracks of muscles, one on the left side of the sternum and one on the right, are anterior to the medial and upper mediastinum and upper thoracic cavity and are composed of the triangular sterni, sternocleidomastoid, scalene, pectoralis minor, intercostals and muscles of the pharynx and anterior neck. They provide the support and anchor for cervical-cranial orientation and rotation and rib position. The right brachial chain muscle is opposed by the right posterior back muscles (PEC), lower trap, serratus anterior, and external rib rotators, in addition to the left internal abdominal obliques. The brachial chain muscle on the left is opposed by the left posterior back muscles (PEC), lower trap, serratus anterior, external rib rotators, and right internal abdominal obliques.

Wonderful course! Enjoyed learning it! Excited to put it into practice. | Live Stream, April 2023
Excellent course, excellent use of time and money. Great way to start to put the missing pieces together with patients. Would highly recommend. Basic concepts are the building blocks for further PRI study. Well done. | Live Stream, April 2023
Skip did well not only answering questions directly but adding some more depth to the answers so people asking got more of an understanding. | Chandler, AZ, April 2023
This course was amazing! I finally understand why so many of my patients hurt. I now, not only do I have the ability to educate them on what is going on with their body, but treat them with specific exercises to correct postural changes. These exercises give my patients the power to control their pain. | Chandler, AZ, April 2023
Learned a lot, really enjoyed the content and felt Louise led great conversation/discussion throughout the weekend. | Jupiter, FL, November 2022
Dan is a phenomenal presenter and while I love the information in this course, he really made it continually enjoyable and relatable. Especially when the information gets difficult to put together.| Live Stream, October 2022
After the weekend I feel even more reverence for the human body and commitment to my own repositioning, re-patterning and retraining through the non manual techniques. Dr Kelley's good humor even her trustworthy encouraging, engaged and expectant affect helped me trust my own ZOA and stay engaged! | Baltimore, MD, September 2022
I think Louise did a fantastic job of bringing the material to life. | Live Stream, August 2022
I am so glad I did this course! I really enjoyed the information that was shared and I think it was presented in an extremely organized, professional and practical way. I can see the value of doing this course in person, but also really appreciate being able to participate in the livestream. Traveling for the course would not have been financially feasible for me at this time, and the livestream allows me to start learning and putting the knowledge into practice in my training business. Thank you! | Live Stream, August 2022
Skip did an amazing job, including the whole group, and always emphasizing the scientific information and not to just “believe him". | Munich, Germany, July 2022
The course information refreshed, expanded & enhanced my knowledge about the PRI's approach regarding human body. This will allow me to treat/coach & support my clients in a more efficient and better way. | Munich, Germany, July 2022
Skip was awesome, made the course fun, and helped breakdown all the questions and exercises to understand much better. | Munich, Germany, July 2022
Skip knows how to translate it to the participants and bring it together in a way they can apply the next day. | Davis, CA, June 2022
I appreciated the professionalism, the depth of knowledge, humility and calm manner of the presenters. I also got a lot of value out of observing the students troubleshoot their way through the labs and hearing the feedback from Louise about how she makes adjustments based on what she is observing. Top notch course and top notch presentation and manual. | Live Stream, May 2022
Louise was outstanding. One of the best presenters I have ever been to. | Lancaster, PA, April 2022

Wonderful content, excellent speaker, very helpful and educational. | Seattle, WA, October 2017
Louise was the best instructor I have had out of the 3 courses I have taken. Great listener, observer, great review throughout, calm, very hands on, professional. Thank you! | Seattle, WA, October 2017
Mind-blowing. New respect for ribs and the diaphragm. | Albuquerque, NM, September 2017
Some of the most intriguing material I’ve ever had in my educational process. | Kearney, NE, June 2017
Great course! I now understand the importance of breathing with both hemispheres of the diaphragm and how to assess and achieve this. | Minneapolis, MN, May 2017
Jesse, you're a great person and a great instructor. Thanks for working to become a high level teacher. This course has the best inhibition section and great clarification on inferior R glute max stretch. | San Francisco, CA, February 2017
This course definitely changes the way I think now. I can think outside the box now, and I feel like I have a good understanding of respiration and how it's the foundation of treatment. | Philadelphia, PA, November 2016
Great, ahead of a lot of thinking out there. | Minneapolis, MN, April 2016

I was highly skeptical of PRI before the course. With several videos and seminars under my belt. I was highly engaged in this course. Now, on to the challenge of implementing it... before my next course! | Indianapolis, IN, March 2014
I loved it. I love everything about PRI and what it stands for. Thank you, thank you, thank you! | Indianapolis, IN, March 2014

Taking it for a second time was very enjoyable. I could really listen and take it all in! | St. Louis, Missouri, January 2013
Thanks – I will use this tomorrow in the clinic. I want to learn more!! | Sioux Falls, South Dakota, January 2013
I took this course 3 years ago – and it is so much better now. Same theory, but much easier to follow and integrate immediately into practice! Thank you | Phoenix, Arizona, May 2012
BEST speaker of any of the 100 different courses I have been to over 20+ years. | Phoenix, Arizona, May 2012
Very good. Ron always does a great job. I learn new idea every time I take a course, no matter how many times I have taken it. | Lincoln, Nebraska, June 2012
I appreciate thoroughly explaining the important topics more than once to be sure we understood before moving on! | Lincoln, Nebraska, June 2012
It was great! Thanks so much I’m excited to review and incorporate. | Lincoln, Nebraska, June 2012
Thanks for making the “older” PTs feel welcome. I haven’t always felt that way in other courses. This was an eye and mind opening experience to look at anatomy, physiology/neuro from a different, flip side of the coin way. Thank you. | Lincoln, Nebraska, June 2012
I really want to thank you for your expertise, knowledge and relief that you provided for me. I know you have heard this many times but I feel so blessed that you have changed my life. I have for the past year changed my practice techniques and achieved more success. I will be in contact. Thank you. | Missoula, Montana, March 2012
Thanks for your teaching energy/changing how I think has made a huge difference in my PT world | Missoula, Montana, March 2012
This was my first ever CEU course and it was great choice. I hope to make it to others to make more connections. | Missoula, Montana, March 2012
Overall, course was very good. Integrated the AIC material from prior course – I understand the whole body pattern much better. | Missoula, Montana, March 2012
Was very informative and an awesome (and legitimate) new way to see/think about neck/shoulder/back pathology. | Missoula, Montana, March 2012
Very informative, really enjoyed the speaker’s enthusiasm and helpfulness. | Urbana, Maryland, February 2012

Instructor was fabulous and wonderful at explaining and applying the material! | Rockville, Maryland, February 2009
This course filled in many “blanks” about the myokin course. We will be much better prepared to eval, treat and educate our patients. Thank You! | St. Louis, Missouri, September 2008
Ron’s compassion for the subject matter is unmistakable. This course does a great job of filling in the upper quarter puzzle and emphasizing the importance of respiration- thank you! | Lincoln, Nebraska, January 2008
Best series of courses I’ve ever taken, including Upledger and Myofascial Release courses. The most comprehensive approach I’ve found. | Portland, Oregon, July 2007
Just wanted to share a success story with you after the course this last weekend in Lincoln. I have a patient who is s/p mva some 6 weeks ago, severe pain cervical/thoracic/and lumbar; very guarded and flexed posture. We had seen her maybe 6 times prior to the course last weekend, and hadn’t made any progress. She was very guarded and we could not release any tension with massage, modalities, and ROM. I performed the manual AIC technique taught in class, restored her ZOA and got the rib cage to move, and the results were amazing. The patient was so excited her burning pain in her mid-back was gone, she broke down in tears. And my 2 PTA’s started to cry with her as they had seen how much pain she was in, and now was feeling relief. Just wanted to relay that story and to say thanks. Your class was amazing. And after 2 days in the clinic, I’ve already seen amazing results. I want to encourage you to keep on empowering therapists as you have me. Thanks again. | Lincoln, Nebraska, October 2006
Thanks for “re-booting” me, giving me belief back in my profession, and hope for relieving my pain. You just changed my life and the lives of my patients. | Crookston, Minnesota, March 2006
Ron has revolutionized the way I treat my athletes. He is the most passionate speaker I have ever had the privilege of hearing. | Omaha, Nebraska, August 2005
I doubt I will attend any other continuing education course besides PRI or something related to. | Omaha, Nebraska, August 2005
Ron was very dynamic in introducing this concept and treatment techniques. This method of PT really makes sense. Finally an approach that ties it all together and help for those people who haven’t been able to be helped yet! | Sioux Falls, South Dakota, May 2005
This material is based on a paradigm that includes the whole body and its interconnections unlike anything else in our training. | Sioux Falls, South Dakota, May 2005
This is my 5th PRI class. As always, they are life changing as my understanding deepens. I am grateful for this approach! It is evidence based, makes sense, can be validated by objective tests and readily applied in the clinic. It has changed the way I practice and made my career more satisfying. | Bloomington, Minnesota, October 2004
I want to thank you for another great class. The responses we get from patients is probably the most rewarding I felt in the 30 some years I have been practicing, and I thought we were doing a good job then… | Bloomington, Minnesota, October 2004
Absolutely outstanding! Excellent course and instructor. He had complete command of the material. A master expert clinician. Thank you for putting the human body back together again and integrating all systems of the body. | Elon, North Carolina, May 2004
You are an innovative thinker, thanks for opening my mind, broadening my horizons and enabling me to better treat my patients. | Elon, North Carolina, April 2004
Awesome course and information. Will incorporate this info in our practice. The lab was great and very beneficial in actually seeing it put into action. | Sioux City, Iowa, December 2003
Thanks for a fresh, common sense approach to biomechanics of the body. Thanks for affirming that there is a lot more to physical therapy than stretching and strengthening. | Sioux City, Iowa, December 2003
