Hi friends, I'm not on FB very much anymore. I'm working on a serious publishing journey. I have a new short book out sharing two simple things I've learned during my career to help enhance nasal breathing. I would be really grateful and appreciate it if you would be able to pick up the book to support me on this. Here's the link: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CTFXCRQ4

Daniel discusses the dynamics of fascia and why the tongue and swallowing are so strongly affected by fascial tension. They discuss what a tongue tie release does to the body, why bodywork is important and how you can resolve fascial tension in your body."

Blog post: https://www.daniellopezdo.com/forward-head-posture-and-tongue-ties/

In this video, Dr. Lopez discusses how fascially a tongue tie can cause forward head posture. He discusses how a tongue tie can add tension on the pretracheal (visceral) fascial layer and draw the cranial base downward. This concept is described in much more detail in the Continuous Tongue course (https://continuoustongue.com) for professionals.

In this case, no amount of chin tuck exercises will have any lasting result with forward head posture. If you suspect this could be you, then you may want to have a myofunctional therapy assess you for a possible tongue tie to see if a release could help your forward head posture.

In the video and blog post, he covers:

-Are Tongue Ties Common?
-Tongue Ties and Forward Head Posture
-How To Resolve The Forward Head Posture?

Watch video to see how tongue posture affects body posture

Read blog article: https://www.daniellopezdo.com/tongue-ties-affect-the-rest-of-the-body-heres-proof/

The tongue is connected to the rest of the body. Dr. Daniel Lopez of Osteopathic Integrative Medicine demonstrates an exercise that shows how tongue posture affects body posture. Tongue ties, mouth breathers, and tongue thrusters do not have proper resting tongue posture on the palate. This can affect craniofacial and airway development. In this video, you will learn an exercise to test how where one rests their tongue will produce a change throughout the rest of the body.
