Navigating The Complex Case Of Diaphragm Paralysis

Unreal Results for Physical Therapists and Athletic Trainers

This week on the Unreal Results podcast, you’ll hear all about my experience with treating multiple cases of diaphragm paralysis. While diaphragm paralysis is quite rare, I have had a few patients with hemiparalysis of the diaphragm and since one of my LTAP™ certified providers has a client with this issue right now, I thought it would be good to make a podcast episode about it. In this episode, you’ll hear about the causes of diaphragm paralysis and how I used the LTAP™ to help me guide treatment in these cases. You’ll also hear about specific treatments that I utilized with these cases as well as some of the other treatments my clients used from other healthcare providers to help them with their symptoms. This is one of those episodes you’ll want to hear because you’ll have some of this knowledge in your back pocket just in case you ever have a patient with diaphragm paralysis.
