The diaphragm and acid reflux

The diaphragm, as we all know, plays a key role in respiration.  Its unique structure and location within the body makes it one of the more fascinating muscles to consider.  Even with only thinking of it as a respiratory giant, the diaphragm has captured people's imagination, and been the focus of countless hypothesis about singing, acting, and voice use in general. Body movement specialists have begun to focus on the diaphragm as well, not only for its use in breathing, but also for its unique placement in the body, and the influence it has on centering and balance.

Until recently, though, few have considered the diaphragm's role as a gastrointestinal structure in the body.  Mark  Pickering's and James FT Jones' article The Diaphragm: Two Physiological Muscles In One explores the complexity of the muscle, and how an understanding of the portion of the diaphragm that helps to regulate the fluids that pass through it going from the top of our bodies to the bottom can influence conditions like acid reflux.
