Tiivistelmä
The purpose of this study is to investigate if breathing pattern disorder correlate with musculoskeletal pain and if the cause can be emotional distress and/or anxiety.
This literature review is based on searches preformed on three different databases, with the search strategy of finding sources for breathing pattern disorders and musculoskeletal pain.
Results shows that there is a correlation between musculoskeletal pain and breathing pattern disorders and that the disorder can be caused by psychological/emotional distress. Results also show that the respiratory function can benefit from osteopathic manual therapy techniques.
The conclusion for this study is that a person that suffers from a breathing pattern dysfunction with associated musculoskeletal pain can benefit from getting treated with manual techniques and physiotherapy. This study also shows that there needs to be more research done on this subject due to the fact that there are no clear ways of identifying and classify a breathing pattern disorder. New assessment tools are needed.
