Take a deep breath for a long life: Let your diaphragm extend your life.

I am pleased to share with you Today’s article from Today’s OdaTv written by Dr. Hüseyin Nazlıkul, M.D. PhD


I hope that you enjoy it and always remember the importance of breathing 🫁





Longevity, or a long and healthy life, depends on the harmonious functioning of many physiological processes. At the forefront of these processes are oxygen intake and respiration.

The respiratory system plays a critical role in transporting oxygen to the tissues, and in this process, the diaphragm muscle takes on a primary role. Ineffective functioning of the diaphragm can lead to a range of health issues. This article will discuss the function of the diaphragm, the treatment of respiratory muscles through Neural Therapy, and the health benefits of breath regulation.


1- FUNCTION OF THE RESPIRATORY MUSCLES AND THE IMPORTANCE OF THE DIAPHRAGM  

Breathing is not a passive process; it occurs through the active work of muscles. The diaphragm is the most important among the respiratory muscles, and with every breath, it expands the thoracic cavity, allowing the lungs to fill with air. However, factors such as stress, postural disorders, and ageing can negatively affect the diaphragm's function. When the diaphragm loses its function, the body cannot obtain sufficient oxygen, which can adversely affect energy production, sleep quality, and overall health.


2- RESULTS OF DIAPHRAGM DYSFUNCTION  

Insufficient functioning of the diaphragm can lead to various problems in the body:

Sleep Disorders: When the diaphragm does not function adequately, issues such as sleep apnea and snoring can occur. This makes it difficult to enter deep sleep and can lead to fatigue during the day.  

Heart Rhythm Disorders: Inadequate oxygen intake can cause the heart to work excessively. Oxygen deficiency can trigger arrhythmias and cardiac dysfunction.  

Fatigue: Oxygen is essential for energy production in the mitochondria. Diaphragm dysfunction affects energy production and can lead to chronic fatigue.  

Weakening of the Immune System: Oxygen deficiency at the cellular level reduces the effectiveness of immune cells, making the body more vulnerable to infections.


3- THE ROLE OF NEURAL THERAPY IN THE TREATMENT OF RESPIRATORY MUSCLES  

Neural therapy is a treatment method that operates through the nervous system and helps restore the normal functions of the respiratory muscles. The functioning of the diaphragm is controlled by the phrenic nerve. Blockages or pressure in the phrenic nerve can prevent the diaphragm from contracting. Neural therapy can enhance respiratory capacity by resolving these blockages using local anaesthetics.

By alleviating pressure on the phrenic nerve through neural therapy, the flexibility of the diaphragm is increased, thus optimizing oxygen intake. This process supports more efficient energy production and enhances the body’s overall healing capacity.


4- DIAPHRAGM MOBILIZATION AND THE IMPORTANCE OF PROPER BREATHING

Proper breathing is essential for healthy diaphragm function. Diaphragmatic breathing encourages deep and slow inhalations, allowing for the full utilization of the lungs. Shallow breathing limits oxygen intake. Diaphragm mobilization includes techniques used to increase breathing capacity and improve diaphragm function. Neural therapy supports this process by enhancing the flexibility of the diaphragm, contributing to more efficient lung function.


5- NEURAL THERAPY FOR DIAPHRAGM TREATMENT AND IMPROVING RESPIRATION

Neural therapy enhances diaphragm function by resolving neural blockages while also supporting the overall flexibility and strength of the respiratory muscles. This therapeutic approach significantly improves oxygen intake and quality of life by regulating respiration.

In conclusion, maintaining diaphragm functions, practising proper breathing techniques, and utilizing methods like Neural Therapy to ensure adequate oxygen supply to the body are fundamental steps for longevity and high quality of life.
