Product Description

Sue Falsone Cervical Talk – What is the Cervical Thoracic Junction?  Cervical Thoracic Drills

Sue Falsone, author of Bridging the Gap from Rehab to Performance and who brought us the Thoracic Spine lecture, returns to look a little higher at the cervical spine. As she’s developing the anatomy knowledge for us, she also encourages us to look below, through the t-spine and into the lumbar region. She describes the anatomy, then tells of a few of her favorite exercises dedicated to the area.

“We have to look at the cervical thoracic junction in relation to everything surrounding it — how it relates to the cervical spine, the thoracic spine, the lumbar spine, or how the lumbar spine relates to it and the position of the head, to the shoulder blades, the ribs, the diaphragmatic breathing, the psychology of things. As people get stressed out and tired, this is a really common area of tension. We have to incorporate looking at the entire upper quarter and including the lumbar spine as a whole. You can’t look at it independently.” ~Sue Falsone

“Over the course of her career, Sue has been one of the very few individuals who has had a chance to work in all different domains of sports medicine, including injury prevention, rehabilitation, and performance training. This unique experience has given her an amazing perspective on how all three of those areas can, and should, work together. Her new book, “Bridging the Gap from Rehab to Performance,” overviews her approach to this spectrum and shares an amazing perspective laced with clinical pearls that only someone with her experience could offer.”

“My rehab process with Sue was like getting a personal MBA! Outlining the process of bridging the gap from rehab to performance educated and motivated me on a daily basis and allowed me to return to the field healthier and stronger than before my injury. I didn’t just rehab my shoulder injury…I felt like I was rehabbing my whole body and mind. I came out moving better and more efficiently, knowing the concept and process before beginning the rehab process created immediate buy-in and allowed me to be relentless in focusing on the daily process toward returning to the field better than before. Sue is simply phenomenal!”
~ Matt Kata, Manager of Youth Baseball Development, Cleveland Indians, Former MLB player
