• Sternocleidomastoid
• Origins: manubrium of sternum and clavicle
• Unite and course upward
• Insertion: mastoid process of temporal bone
• Contract: when head is fixed, bilateral contraction elevates sternum, clavicle, ribcage

• Scalenus• Origin: cervical
vertebrae• Insertion: ribs 1 & 2• Contract: raises ribs

• Levatores costarum
• Origin: cervical/thoracic vertebrae
• Insertion: rib below origin
• Contract: elevate ribs (similar to external intercostals)http://www.anatomyexpert.com/structure_detail/5238/

• Serratus anterior• Origin: ribs• Insertion: scapula• Contract: elevates ribs
• Serratus posterior superior
• Origin: cervical/thoracic vertebrae
• Insertion: upper ribs• Contract: elevates ribs
• Serratus posterior inferior
• Origin: thoracic/lumbar vertebrae
• Insertion: lower ribs• Contract: depresses ribshttp://www.anatomyexpert.com/structure_detail/5505/

• Transversus thoracis
• Origin: lower sternum
• Insertion: upper ribs
• Contract: depresses ribs

• Breathing Basics
• Bigger Breaths
• Breathing for Speech
• Tidal breathing excursion: 10% VC
• Inspiration for conversation: 60% VC
• Inspiration for loud reading: 80% VC
Hixon, T.J., et al. (2008). Preclinical Speech Science: Anatomy, Physiology, Acoustics, and Perception. Pg. 31.
• Measured in cm H2O
• Sustained vowel: 6 cm H2O
• Conversation: 3-20 cm H2O
• Loud yell: 80 cm H2O
Hixon, T.J., et al. (2008). Preclinical Speech Science: Anatomy, Physiology, Acoustics, and Perception. Pg. 34.
• Boyle’s Law: PV = constant
• How do we maintain the same expiratory pressure for speech when lung volumes are changing?•Passive forces•Muscle effort starts at 55% VC
Zemlin, W.R. (1998). Pg. 91.
• Muscle contractions oppose relaxation pressure with desired pressure as the end result
• Relaxation pressure – Subglottal pressure =
Amount of muscle activity
• 55% VC relaxation pressure maintains subglottal pressure
Zemlin, W.R. (1998). Pg. 92.

• Clavicular: shoulders move up and down during breathing
• Thoracic: balance of movement during breathing between the thoracic and abdominal regions
• Diaphragmatic (Abdominal): most of the movement during breathing occurs in the abdominal area
