Studies have shown evidence that mobility improvements in the jaw can relieve tension in the pelvic area and vice versa.
Additionally, if the hips or jaw is off balance, there is a good chance the other is too.
How could these two very different ends of the body be connected?
Recent findings from a groundbreaking study reveal an astonishing link between the (TMJ) and the hip joint.
This research, published in a reputable medical journal, sheds light on how imbalances in one part of the body can mirror and affect another seemingly unrelated part.
Why does this matter?
For decades, we’ve understood that the body is a complex, interconnected system. This study reinforces our belief that to address postural issues effectively, we must consider the body as a whole, not just isolated parts.
The connection begins during embryologic development at around day fifteen.
In this stage, called gastrulation, two depressions form on the dorsal side of the embryo which become the oropharyngeal membrane (goes on to form the mouth) and the cloacal membrane (goes on to form the openings of the urinary, reproductive and digestive tracts).
The spine grows between them and the two remain connected from their early beginnings as one being in the embryo.
Tensions and imbalances in the jaw can have an effect on the membranes connecting the dura to the skull and affect where it is tethered below in the sacrum.
In addition to this, the functional activator can help promote proper tongue posture by encouraging the tongue to rest in the correct position, link in bio☝️

This program give you the tools to understand and fix posture long term by addressing the body as a whole. Everything starts with the brain, and these six courses show you exactly how to support it, step by step.
