ISEH Learning: Breathing to Win
We’re delighted to host once again the ISEH Learning: Breathing to Win course, which will take place on Friday 12th June at the Institute of Sport, Exercise & Health (ISEH) in Central London. Endorsed by the British Journal of Sports Medicine (BJSM), this comprehensive, interactive, full-day workshop is designed for clinicians, and focused on the practical aspects of assessing, managing, and optimising breathing performance in athletes.
Led by Professor James Hull (Consultant Respiratory Physician at ISEH), Julie Backley (ISEH Clinical Respiratory Physiotherapist), and Clare-Louise Chadwick (Paediatric Respiratory Physiotherapist), the course will also feature expert-led sessions from MSK Physiotherapist Gwynn Wallace, Breath & Movement Consultant and researcher Dr Eric Harbour, and Sport and Exercise Physiotherapist Tania Clifton-Smith.
This insightful and practical workshop (now sold out), will equip attendees with the latest expertise in breathing performance for athletes.
Health professionals will receive a certificate post event.
The Learning Objectives
- Be familiar with the typical symptoms of dysfunctional breathing (DB) & exercise-induced laryngeal obstruction (EILO) on athletic performance.
- Understand how to make a diagnosis of dysfunctional breathing & exercise induced laryngeal obstruction.
- Understand the impact of DB & EILO on athletic performance.
