Have you ever thought about how your tongue could be affecting your posture even all the way down to your feet?

What if something as simple as where your tongue rests in your mouth could influence your body’s alignment, balance, and even breathing?

The tongue is more than just a muscle for speaking and eating, it’s deeply connected to the body through fascia, an intricate web of connective tissue that links the tongue to the feet.

When your tongue isn’t positioned correctly due to mouth breathing, it can disrupt this entire system, leading to imbalances in posture, spinal alignment, and even how much energy your body uses throughout the day.

Could improving tongue posture be the missing key to better posture, core strength, and overall movement efficiency?

The primary belief is that carrying a heavy bag causes rounded shoulders.

While carrying a heavy bag can contribute to rounded shoulders, it is not the primary cause of this condition.

Rounded shoulders are typically the result of a combination of factors, including poor foot posture, weak muscles, and muscle imbalances.

The foot arch plays a crucial role in maintaining the proper alignment of the leg bones. When the arch collapses, the rotation of the tibia and femur can become affected, leading to a change in the shape of the spine.

This change in the shape of the spine can cause the shoulders to roll forward, leading to rounded shoulders.

Other factors include prolonged sitting, slouching, and poor ergonomics at work. Additionally, muscle imbalances caused by a lack of exercise or improper training can also contribute to rounded shoulders.

We're starting the week with some thoughts from Andrew Taylor Still taken from his 1897 Autobiography...

💬 "An Osteopath is only a human engineer, who should understand all the laws governing his engine and thereby master disease.." (Still, 1897, p. 312)

😀 Have a fabulous week.
