This video is so important. The orthodontic profession is due for a reckoning. I had extraction/retraction work done as a child that left me unable to fully bite down. Keep up the good work Neil.
I'm sorry to hear that. Extraction/retraction is bad on so many levels. I truly hope you are alright.
You can correct that, look into orthos capable of doing TAD assisted impaction or eruption along with invisalign. Depending on what kind of bite you have
We too. Then, three years of braces
The entire medical profession is up for a reckoning.
My teeth came in crooked and were taken out. My brothers were all straight, no extractions.
Neal, yet another great video. I was wondering if you do podcasts? Would love to have you on the channel.
(Wasn't sure the best place to contact you)
Him on your podcast would
be awesome!!
In the About section he gives his links. (On a tablet tap the icon, his face, just to the left of Neal.)
so happy to see this
Neal, please do this pod!
Yes PLEASE
Toxic interactions/people adversely effect posture! Armoring, clenched jaw, rounded shoulders, irregular breathing and on and on....
Truth!
Would you say that malocclusion is a reason for teeth grinding at night ? As in if people don't feel their molars, they might be "looking for them" at night especially if stressed ? I'm thinking that probably the grinding over time might be an attempt of the body to achieve points of contact, but it's a slow process that wears down the teeth we need to properly chew food. What do you think about that theory ?
That is actually interesting. That is probably the case. I grind my teeth and always had a bad bite. Could also be stress but that is an idea to be open minded too. Causation and correlation might differ but sounds logical and it could make sense
Most likely you are lying on your side and ruining jaw me too it's hard to fix.
Dear Neal, about 40 years ago as I was jogging with a friend, who was studying medicine then. I asked him, what the relation is between the teeth/jaws and the heels/soles, because I had felt a connection very tangibly and continuosly (it was grounding, which I was looking for instictively). He asked me laughing how long the roots of my teeth were. During the decades after I have never met a person who took my question seriously. Thank you.
Quite the same w me. Luckily I met a singing teacher who immediately understood and started to do exercises with me. It helped for the singing and posture:) In tiny steps but continually! I‘m taking lessons twice a month , have been for almost 8years now.
My man, you cracked all my health problems. I began being aware of my body and although I look perfect on the outside I can feel the very muscle and and skeletal diviations and I have begun correcting them out of sheer will power but today you proved to me scientifically what I have known intuitively all along. Thank you for that. I have a very slight crossbite and that has been the bane of all my suffering. Even to the position of my foot and calve size of my right leg. which affects by abdominal structure. which is related to my slight lisp. DAMN
Ur slight lisp and crossbite could be due to a tongue tie. Crossbite u need expansion to fix.
Go see an airway dentist that works with a myofunctional therapist.
If u have tongue tie, get it cut when the time is right
I recently had my wisdom teeth out on one side and now I can only eat on one side which makes me eat like an old person rummaging it around and I've so many back and neck problems now. Really feel wobbly on my feet as well I'm only 43!!
Dude, that's me. I had braces as a kid and my body is so lop sided.....pain, pain,pain. Posture funked....
You're describing exactly what I'm experiencing. Thank you. I hope more people are helped by this
My son has flat feet, knocked knees, anterior peltic tilt, high/tense shoulders and usually has his mouth open. It's all tying in together now. Thank you.
He is a mouth breather. Go bring him to an airway dentist that works with a myofunctional therapist. All his problems stem from his breathing
Me to, how can i fix that?
@@teakrmelic7301 fix your skull. expansion then proper mewing
Interesting. I began fixing my gait a few months ago. Pretty much got it fixed, but it took a lot of practice (and barefoot shoes). Recently, my jaw shifted forward. Like, it feels like it went back into place. My head sits more upright without trying. I knew the feet, spine, neck, and head are integrated, but the involvement of the jaw is a cool addition to my knowledge.
how did you do that?
how did you fix your gait? and can you recommend barefoot shoes?
@@federicoa472ua-cam.com/users/shortsGwtA-__gZsI?si=giVeajSIM_WFxNko
Xero shoes, I like the Merrells if you're on a tighter budget, inov8 used to be good idk anymore, obviously vivobarefoot are the gold standard.
Lots of gait training and exercise videos on yt, but you'll want to assess yourself at least with video recording and at most with a PT or other specialist trainer...I might know a few ;)
Yes! At age 14 I had an orthdontist remove 8 adult teeth (4 wisdom, 4 molars), put me in braces, and I have been wearing a retainer ever since (over 20 years). This work basically froze my maxilla and mandible at a small size leaving me with a tiny arch, nasal breathing issues, and of course a small, retracted lower third of my face.
I've recently started mewing and chewing mastic gum daily to attempt to mitigate the damage but coming up on 40 years old I think surgery may be the only option.
To anyone who has kids, DO NOT EXTRACT. Focus on expansion!
I understand you.
To this day i still remember the day they told me they were going to take the 4 wisdom teeth. And it made NO sense to me. As i had used braces with the "ring" on the 2nd molar.
I was like: cant you at least take out the teeth that are all filled with holes (because i couldn't clean the with those rings that covered all the sides of those 4 teeth. )
Anyhow, i got retracted lower jaw.. But to this day i rather not go to orthodontist (had to get a root canal on one of the 2nd molars, cause they were un-cleanable for the years i wore braces)
I would look into and research non-surgical options such as Vivos dna appliance or homeblock that correct this issue. Maybe even MSE as that moves the bone.
In some cases extraction is necessary if they are mesioimpacted and causing misalignment of the anterior teeth. Also they can start to resorb the root of the 2nd molar. So removal of 3rds in SOME cases is mandatory. There are measures taken to prevent problems afterward such as socket preservation to prevent further osteoblastic activity.
Get implants they don't move
I'm convinced this is intentional. Life long customer.
Jaw dropping stuff! Incredible how I sit here & your explaining everything I’m going through.started seeing a practitioner in mid June,I’m right torsion,I’ve had 2 appointments & I’m making good/steady progress.just getting the rib flare down & getting proper breath into the posterior mediastinum/proper breath to expand rib cage has been incredible,things releasing/relaxing🙌.long way to go yet,but perseverance & the amazing info I’ve learned from you is all helping x
That torsion can really make any PRI program more difficult. Progress is often non-linear. Good luck and trust the process
“Jaw dropping” indeed.
If u have any sort of breathing, jaw, or tongue pattern issues. Always keep in mind an airway dentist that works with a myofunctional therapist
I am always amazed by how you are able to explain these complex topics that are taught by the institute and simplify them so that the average person can understand and benefit from it. Very well done video. Keep it up!
Thanks. It takes a long time to see “the big picture” and connect all the dots, but when you do, you can help so many more people.
Excellent!
First time I’ve heard someone so clearly explain and define exactly what I’ve been going through for 2 decades. Had camouflage ortho and extractions as a kid on top of condylar hypoplasia that formed as a teen. I’ve been told my whole life by countless practitioners that what I was experiencing was not real or that there was no connection between teeth, occlusion and the stability of the body. This connection always made sense to me and you have given me the language and knowledge base to speak up for myself and find the right people to help me heal. Truly can not thank you enough for this important work you’re doing. 🙏
Good luck man
The world is full of incompetent doctors and so called experts
Where do you practice? I’ll be there in the morning
Same bro , I talked to my ortho and primary care doctor about this but they say I’m crazy
He just speak , no recommendations or guids
From an LMT in the PNW: People can be quick to have strong opinions about ideas that make no sense to them, especially in a health paradigm that compartmentalizes the human body. It's just simple ignorance. I hope you don't let it get you down. We need humility and curiosity to keep learning. I'm so grateful for your videos. This is next-level connectivity that has me interested in attending PRI courses. Thank you for intelligent content.
It's worrying that people like you work in medicine
Good conformist slave I see. No room for open mindedness here🤣😂🤣
I also feel people just do what they learned in school without looking more at anything else in depth or keeping an open mind to new ideas.
Ladies & Gentleman, this here is, and I'm talking from own experience, the most valuable video regarding posture that was ever uploaded in the entire internet! What Neal explains here is the reason why almost everyone with chronic pain will always stay in pain for the rest of their lives and nothing works. It the puzzle piece that humans have been researching for thousands of years but never found.
Thank you so much Neal, you're a legend! This fully aligns with tons of own researches I've done during the last years and finally I have the pieces together now. How damn lucky are we that there are non capitalist philanthropists like Neal who share their knowledge freely with us on the internet. There are no words to explain my gratefulness for this video.
Totally agreed✨👌🏻
How about prostate issues? Can it be reversed?
All so grateful 🙏
❤Thank you.
When its so valuable and you are talking from experience can you share If there is somewhere excersices that can be done so the nervous system resets?
This guy is onto something. Most "professionals" study one area of the body when it's all related.
That it's all related should be already known by orthopedic specialists, but they don't treat with that in mind, and i don't know why. I guess they also try to make more money by only treating one point of your body and when you get problems with the next one that is connected with the previous one, they get paid again. That's how it is, at least, in Germany. We have Medicare for all here, but Doctors try to do as less work as possible, it's a mess....
Our body is all connected! One part affects another part! Western medicine looks & treat at individual parts only.
I love that you put this out. I struggle with lower back pain, neck pain, tmj, hip flexor tightness, hyper tonic pelvic floor and slight scoliosis. I learned to “stack” my posture, treating my Diastasis Recti, and learning to lean neutrally into the heel of my foot; all of sudden my expanding teeth gaps I bought aligners for, started closing on their own. My jaw strength and tmj has been mproving immensely. This not only took the strain out of hip flexors, my pelvic floor started to respond much better to my routine diaphragmatic breathing. Lower back pain, severe neck pain is subsided so much. I say this to support that the jaw is very much connected to all the other bodily issues and vice versa. At least in my case. It crazy that something is simple as posture and alignment does so much. Even the way i carry weight changed. My trunk is much longer and slimmer now. I had a pretty significant rib flare and anterior tilt before this.
what do you mean by the things you did? like stacking your poster and doing the thing with your feet
Can you explain what you did to stack your posture? And did you just focus more on putting weight on your heel while walking?
Could you please explain more on the things you did? Where should I look up to try them out for myself? Thanks for sharing! Your story inspires me.
What I’ve found recently is a connection from a “trend” known as Mewing being a great way to not only help reconstruct poorly developed facial structure, but keep your mouth in a position where your molars are always slightly touching in resting position allowing for better teeth sensing, bringing back that natural sensing that many lose due to improper tongue position and having their mouth do whatever throughout the day.
I have an asymmetrical jaw from an injury, but I think that led to my overall imbalance that I have with my right neck being stiff and over dominate left leg. I realized that I always tend to chew food with my left side more and had worst tooth sensing on my right side. After implementing mewing for only a week so far, my right side is fully sensing like my left now and I feel like my neck stiffness has reduced as well, alongside fixing my breathing as well. Hope this fix things in the long term
Same here man! Just wish I would’ve discovered this sooner
What is teeth sensing or tooth sensing
@@dencentbeatz794 when you touch your teeth together, not clenching real hard, but lightly. You should feel your molers, all the way to the back, top and bottom, touching each other. If you don’t, then there’s a nerve/sense problem that isn’t communicating the right signals to your brain that your jaw is in the right position.
Could you share a website or video that explains how it works?
@@Obliskif i have uneven teeth, is it possible that i am not able to sense all my molars?
Amazing, I've been coming to this conclusion myself with the scoliosis and major jaw, teeth and gum issues becoming noticeable in my 50s. Hoping I can get help still!!
I'm in Australia, and apart from orthodontic work that messed up my jaw/bite, I'm perplexed by the fact no medical professionals (doctors, dentists, orthodontist, ENT surgeons) here have ever mentioned that I have a tongue tie. Even through the process of nasal surgery to help correct my breathing, the tongue tie was never mentioned nor addressed.
Why are our "Specialists" so ignorant of core problems? Thanks for your efforts to help educate! 🌟
The tongue tie is an easy fix i used to stress over it, for a few days you can't eat hot foods but its worthit!
@@George-xb5ey Thanks so much; I started to look into it and then a multitude of other things in life need fixing, too, as always. I appreciate your response. Did you have the simple laser one?
@@jopalmer777 when I had it done. i was under total anaesthetic as I had 4 wisdom teeth removed simultaneously, i believe they snipped the tongue tie and stitched it in place that it should be. Good luck Jo!
@@George-xb5ey ahh, that was a smart way to do it! I'm amazed that no ENT specialists ever mentioned mine, otherwise I'd have fixed it years ago. Thanks again and good health to you 🌟
@@George-xb5eydid it improve your speech or hinder it ? I was going to get it a couple of months ago but scared from that
It’s crazy because the times I’ve found healing from these problems have been when I’ve been doing things to work on my jaw, neck, shoulders, back, hamstrings, glutes, hips, and foot positioning. I always felt crazy for noticing this and just would focus on specific parts. From PRI I know why that happens now. Now figuring out the right combination of treatment is what I need to figure out
You’re amazing Neal! Love your content and how you break something so complicated down and make it look easy. True genius!!!!
Thanks, Mike.
Wow congrats on the viral video Neal you deserve it!
Found this very interesting in relation to my severe neck pain with debilitating spasms and nerve pain through my arms & hands. Unfortunately I've had my teeth and jaw literally destroyed by the barbaric modern "dental" industry. I've known for some time the horrible pain I've been suffering is related to my teeth and I've had some experiences that are hard for most people to believe.
After watching this I have to wonder if there is any hope for recovery for someone like me?
Hi, Doctor Neal. I have an overbite of my jaw and its also slighted tilted downwards. My dentist recommended me surgery in order to get it fixed. (Double jaw surgery) Do you think it's necessarry or this splint thing you're talking about would be enough to fix it?
Regards!
Same problem, looking forward to an answer ❤
I’ve been working with a dentist for seven years for this very reason. He is on top of this. Makes total sense.
I am looking for a real dentist that understands this! Who is your dentist if you dont mind sharing?
@@FreeSpiritWine Dr Bronson. He’s in the DC area. But he trains other dentists. The device is called an ALF. So try to find a dentist who uses that.
If ur in the chicago area. Go to inspire wellness dental.
If not... see an airway dentist that works with a myofunctional therapist
I am convinced that army basic training somehow put me in the best shape of my life. And honestly, the music, stepping, breathing, looking, and posture, is all part of the formations and marrching you do every day. We have trained soldiers for our entire existence as a species, and cling to specifc training methods. So cool to see how they can actually help soldiers stay fit.
oouuu neat take, I like this
You explain so well what happens to a lot of people that most doctors and physiotherapists don't believe.
And you said it well, it is scientific but they don't believe.
TMD robbed my life. I was a airplane pilot. As I rely on science, I looked for scientific litterature on the subject. I'm still shocked that most health professionnals who are an authority in knowledge work on a belief system rather than science and want to stay in ignorance. It's extremely dangerous for the patients.
You explain EXACTLY all that I have ! Every single detail in my issue is explained in this video.
The medical community really needs to question their system and find a way to integrate new knowledge in a madatory way like most professions with great responsibilities do.
As a physio I totally agree, the ideological/political response to covid was an eye opener. After subconsciously dismissing the possibility of wide-ranging corruption in my medicoscience world. Trying to respond with more integrity and keep my license is like tightrope walking.
@@alexs7671 thanks a lot for your very honnest comment !
@@alexs7671stay away from the rope. Burn the rope and walk away.
I had my wisdom teeth extracted before I was 14, I believe, and four more molars and semi-molars also extracted to create space for the rest of my teeth. I was on ortho visits and works for 5 years, five critical and key years from 12/13 to 17/18. I was able to play sports, but at 16 my back said enough and I had to quit sports for a year (which greatly improved my high school marks) and then I have been having issues and problems with my hips and back until 11 years ago, when I finally got a spine procedure that improved my quality of life by like 85/90%.
Coincidentally, most of the mouth problems I have encountered through my life are gone. My last visit to the dentist was like 1.5 years ago, although I had a period of several problems in a period of 2 years a while ago. Also coincidentally, all my cavities problems are gone since I stopped using fluoride pastes, which is another story.
I now wonder what my life would have been like had I not entered that ortho dentist with my parents when I was 12/13.
It has been almost 40 years and still have bad memories of him, although the whole process was interesting for me at the time.
You should still be going to the dentist to get deep cleanings, at least once a year
I do not do that either. Completely unnecesary. I do not use a fluoride paste but others with natural components and I just eat the basics in 90% of my meals: eggs, meat, fish, vegetables and fruits. My teeth are ok and clean.@@wesleyturverey
@@wesleyturvereyyou can get all the supplies and do it yourself now.

What spine procedure?
You are a legend Neal. Thankyou for continuing to work and share your knowledge. Its frustrating that to the average person PRI concepts are seen as some sort of a nutty conspiracy! PRI is nothing short of life changing once you feel that changes in your body! Traditional physiotherapy is so reductionist it makes me sad that so many people will have to spend their entire lives in these twisted states. Your channel changed my life. From a random suggested video of yours that sparked my interest on youtube, i have since been down the PRI rabbit hole. How different my life would have been if i didnt click that video! My body has never felt better and my mental health is stronger than ever! PRI IS EVERYTHING!🤣✊. Thankyou for spreading the knowledge! Joe, Uk.
That’s awesome Joe! I’m happy for you.
It was the seemingly random UA-cam suggestions that have revealed the underlying causes of physical and neurodevelopmental issues that I've had all my life but no one else ever suggested I look into them.
1. Autism. I already knew about ADHD's effect on me, but learning about Autism -- "Well, ^that^ explains ev-er-y-thing!"
2. Chronic PTSD. I hadn't recognized that I was conditioned to anticipate and respond with hostility, even preparing defenses before imagined possible confrontations might come up.
3. Super Empath, and 4.
Narcissism, within days of each other, revealed why certain people throughout my life behaved with a seemingly false front or why certain people seemed uncomfortable in my presence. I am also better equipped to identify manipulative, self-saving, and/or self-serving behaviors and to deflect and defuse manipulation.
Now, 5. This topic of jaw issues that cause a cascade of ill effects through the whole being. "No wonder I tell my chiropractor that I feel like a Twizzler."
Seemingly random...? Or is UA-cam getting smarter about what information will help us learn what we ought to know about our individual lives, health, relationships....?
I usually feel like the best way to describe my issues is that my head is screwed on wrong. Like someone completely mashed the threads when they were screwing it on. This is a much more scientific explanation 😂 Thank you!!!
Pictures of my face/head from pre-2021 show how my visual system completely screwed my head improperly. So it definitely happens.
Having experienced many teeth being removed, I'd say you are completely correct and it's only on reflection at my age now that I recognise the problems I have had could have been fixed a long time ago. But at least I am learning now. Thank you, I have found your information to be excellent and helpful.
Are you suffering from pain or discomfort in your jaw?
Ok?? So what tf do i do
Postin my comment here incase someone replies
😂
Look for how to align your posture, maintaining the spine in neutral position, which will correct the posture of your hips/jaw, and stop neck breathing.
@@valeriaaraujo9962just strengthen your jawline. It brings the front of the throat forward, opening it up, making it easier for you to breathe

Perfect timing! I had an emergency craniotomy in 2020 to remove a right side tumor. Since surgery there’s a tremor in the left jaw. I was previously left side dominant. Now I never stand on my left foot. I also shift my lower jaw to the right to stop the tremor. Also can’t dorsiflex left ankle sufficiently. The corker is that 2 weeks ago I had a bout of vertigo, now stabilized but I had about 80% hearing loss in left ear overnight. I keep telling the doctor it’s a mechanical/ nerve problem and not an auditory problem (left ear is numb). He recommended hearing aids. AARRGGGG😳
I have jaw damage from DV.
13 yrs and i find this. I hope its a start
I have dealt with this silent problem for many years. Chronic painful tightness, tingling pain and numbness on my right jaw, head, neck and upper back. Plus lots of chipped and broken teeth. I have gone to the dentist and the ENT and they say it’s TMJ issues and I agree in essence but then you are only sent home with advil and a warm cloth. After fruitlessly working on the areas directly (myofascial , deep tissue, trigger point) I finally found out it was my psoas and hip flexors but working on them has given me no rest from this chronic issue either. Using the rhythm to sync my hips and turn off the overactivity on my right side has finally given me some relief! Feeling even just some moments away from the constant pressure in my head and face means so much. I know I need a lot of work but it has given me some hope after dealing with this for twenty years. Thank you so much for your videos!
They are fixing symptoms without fixing the underlying issues. Go see airway dentist that works with Myofunctional therapist. If u are in chicago area, go see Inspire wellness dental
Can you share what exactly you've been doing to tackle the issues?
The best guy in this business. Amazing stuff my friend. 3 years of pain related to this and you described it the best I have seen!
This is precisely what's happing to me! After suffering for years from a neck dystonia, the dentist took not even a minute to file down a tooth that was causing the mandibular occlusion problem you're addressing here. I'm already 50% returned to a straighter neck from yesterday, and the dystonia is greatly relieved. Anyone with a neck dystonia, I recommend getting your teeth checked for this very thing. Thank you so much, I'm learning a ton about what to do and already getting relief from it!
how did they help you?
Do you mean the Dentist? Because of Dr. N, I asked the dentist about an acrylic stint, and he looked at my bite to assess my situation, saw that I had a cross bite, filed down the tooth that was in the way of closing my jaws properly, and for the first time I felt my teeth meeting which sent new sensations to my neck. My dystonia isn't as pronounced and keeping my head up and neck straighter is suddenly easier. I still need a lot of work on my feet and gait, but I'm still flying from these improvements.
@@ginny177
these videos are helping me understand the connections to my feet, hips, teeth and neck, and how they all work together.@@ginny177
Is there there is any real dantist u knaw? I m not sure who gave diplomas to those who call themselves dentists. 😡
Teeth are bones. You are NOT SUPPOSED to remove or file down any of them
I’ve noticed this issue in me for years and people thought I was exaggerating. I have a mal occlusion and my lower back on one side is starting to hurt chronically. I recently got braces to “fix” the mal occlusion or so my teeth can “look” straight and shift to the center - I’m an actress so watching myself on camera, the teeth REALLY BOTHERED ME them being sideways. I exercise, yoga, dance etc. as a kid I used to get a lot of headaches in the temples and the orthodontist had told me I should get the headgear - I complained as a teenager, so my parents got lazy and didn’t push it much at all actually. Wondering if I have a solution? My neck is forward a bit and I have been sleeping without a pillow lately to straighten the neck in the back.
If you are in the US, you could find a PRI provider to evaluate you.
@@NealHallinando you not accept appts?
As a mature woman with back trouble, I suggest getting a spine X-ray. As you age, if your back gets worse, you will have a base line X-ray for comparison and a time line of changes. I agree that neck and jaw tension can affect performances for musicians. Have you read about the Alexander technique?

I’m so glad for this video!
I have a wellness education (I do a lot of things) and have been working with a client that has a slew of things happening to them.
I’ve been doing multiple layer releases on him, but he has always been telling me that his eyes are shaking, he has a constant left ear pull, and in the beginning his left teeth/muscles would hurt.
I’ve done several techniques on him, cranial sacral, lymphatic, Govnering vessel lymphatic, physical therapy, trigger points/fascia points/muscle energy techniques, myofascia, energy work, music-freq resets for body and emotional releases, resetting gate, massage/muscle stripping, etc.
I’ll be sharing this video with him!
And I’ll be learning more about this myself. Namaste thank you for your passion! I completely understand this passion and caring!
Well, you're all more resilient than I am apparently. Although I somewhat realized the issue was the jaw and teeth 10+ years ago, I figured what was needed to fix it, if it was even possible without "the world" just screwing me over again, just wasn't feasible. I never was going to have braces again and I had them taken off early to begin with. Not early enough. Mostly had full body burning pain, face especially, autonomic dysfunction, heat intolerance, digestive issues and brain fog. Culminating into what apparently only I could bother to put a name to, "Wallenberg Syndrome". Left side, right side face. Flat lower back, loss of cervical curve. So obvious compression. Basically going to sleep, going to another world at 17, waking up nearly 30, very difficult to accept.
I don't even really care at this point. The body and mind are puppets, they're disposable. I should find freedom and some sort of peace in this, but I don't. Which means something within is still clinging on. Going to just use mind over matter, magic. None of this is even "real". I've repaired my eyesight at least. It does seem to work.
I could comment on the content but there's nothing to really say. The medical-industrial complex has always been a scam packed full of the "mentally ill".
I just watched a few minutes of your video (fast forward), but I think I love you and what you are doing, and what you are talking about. You are one of the best human beings in this world, God bless you ❤️ peace ✌️
I've watched your content with a healthy dose of skepticism, but I have to admit many of these things are spot on! I was diagnosed with a slight over-bite as a child and I developed a forward head position+stiff neck+stiff jaw in my teens. These issues are all but resolved, since I've been aware of them and I've been actively correcting my posture for two decades. A few sessions of voice massage also helped me when I experienced worsening symptoms with nocturnal tooth grinding. For many years now I've had zero neck- or back pain, and am able to do large amounts of exercise and be very active without causing myself harm or over-use issues.
I see many comments from people that have recently discovered a postural issue, but I thought it would be encouraging to hear from someone that has reaped the full benefits of posture correction.
Hi Neal What is the book that you reference image wise towards the end of the video? (Skull/Pelvic Relationship) Thanks
I watched one of your videos about two months ago and did one of the positions to reset my diaphragm and I was absolutely blown away. I could touch my toes after I haven't touched my toes in 15 years. Thanks so much for educating us on this topic it's incredible.
That’s so cool. I couldn’t touch my toes until I was 40 years old.
Which video was this? Could you link me pls?
Highly informative video. Exactly what I am facing currently
As a person with these issues,
This man is 100 percent correct.
I struggle with balance and hearing issues etc
I notice jaw strengthening and proper teeth posture gives great relief.
People he mentions in the comments back let this man spread his knowledge
Tongue posture and proper swallow as well
Mental illness most my life, and i definitely kbow how it affects my breathing and tensing. i have to do yoga and meditation breath work regularly to manage my pain.
Would you ever recommend jaw exercises themselves?? My diet has changed to softer foods and I've applied some of your techniques and feel it works but quickly reverts. Lifting/exercising 7-12 hours a week for months and going to PT now.
Intriguing. Overlay what Anatomy Trains teaches us about how the fascia are involved with alignment and it makes even more sense. 🙏
Thank you for these videos! Longtime Yoga/Pilates teacher and student here. Have recently been exploring fascia release sequences, which are a wonderful complement to my primary modalities. And now your videos are also a revelation.
Btw, I have an underdeveloped dental arch, abnormal swallowing pattern, out of whack jaw, and had all wisdom teeth out in my 30s. I’m almost 75. This video explains so much about areas of imbalance and restrictions that have influenced and challenged my Yoga posture practice over the years.
I''m curious how your facial release sequences will go. Which ones are you doing?
I had a brain tumour removed from my cerebellum at 4. It affected my eyes and vision. In response, it turned my right eye inwards, and I've had double vision up until this year. Im slowly learning to correct these issues that you are talking about. It is a massive recovery road for me.
I pray for U Bro ❤
This makes so much sense for everything my body has been telling me for such a long time which I have tried to describe to people but they look at me blankly. I have had problems with neck pain, cranio sacral issues, TMJ, tinnitus, left hip out of alignment and clicking in and out of the socket, problems with shallow and tight restricted breathing. Dentist always telling me I need to get some gum shields done but I have severe issues with over sensitive gag reflex so I cant have anything in my mouth without choking so he can't do moulds. I have said for ages I think all my spine is out of alignment. I have issues at C5/C6 pinching nerves, issues with disc bulging at that area and down near sacrum too. I get issues with clicking neck and shoulders, fibromyalgia and extreme tension in muscles on right arm and shoulder. Severe tension headaches and migraines. I have so many problems with cognitive processes, memories, speech and ordered thinking along with moods. Said to my husband I am sure why I have issues with grounding exercises and sacral chakra along with throat, heart and others all out of alignment and balance and struggle no matter what I do to try and rectify. Been to countless physios, corrective chiropractors, IMSK specialists, osteopaths. Every time they do treatment it reverts back to its old patterns again. My intuition has been telling me something wrong with whole alignment. I have overly straight neck on scans. I was thinking it was either result of whiplash and wearing a neck brace or sexual assault as a young person that has been coming back in small flashbacks recently. Everything you say in your videos makes perfect sense for me and explains why I just suffer constant problems regardless of the treatments in different areas. Had some Cranio sacral treatment where body started to naturally realign itself. Still have a long way to go, but this just makes me think yes, my body has been trying to communicate this to me, but I just had none of the words or the ways to describe it. My whole left side and eye is weak. Wish you were in UK. US Doctors so much more intuitive and better trained.
I have pretty bad posture; forward head posture, tense upper back, lower back pain, bad balance. I also have a severe (~8 mm) underbite. I am due to have a double jaw surgery in 2 days time to correct this, how do you think (if at all) that my posture will be affected?
Hi Neal! I'm a chiropractic student and I'm extremely interested in your work and learning how I can help people in a way similar to you. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and making it so accessible
Change ur profession to pri, don’t be brainwashed by chiropractors
chiropractic isn't an agenda, it's a form of manual therapy, with a huge scope of practice that enables me to choose how i want to help people@@purifierphoenixthemecca
Learn the airway. Learn the jaw and how the tongue influences the jaw and airway
@@I_Ace I already know because I went through hell trying to fix it...... The tongue is suppose to rest at the roof of your mouth in a relaxed suctioned centerized manner, anything else causes disfunction. When the tongue is at the rest, its relaxes your whole body, especially your cranium and nasal passages allowing you to breathe through your nose easier. When the tongue is in its proper place the lower jaw will start re-aligning itself by either moving forward or backwards depending on whether or not you have a overbite or an underbite. When achieving neutrality most symptoms just go away, things like tmj, tension headaches, backpain, stomach issues, knee pain, etc...... As long as these issues werent caused by some random accident, it's acheivable within days to months depending on how messed up your mouth is. Go learn about postural restoration and biomechanics, everything is connected.
Thank you! I will@@I_Ace
I already shared with four people! Great information they perfectly explains what I’ve been working on.
You said you did expansion of the maxilla. What was the exact device that did this called. This is a vital piece of information as there are multiple devices that 'expand', some of which can have adverse effects and make things worse.
I would also like to know this. There are some really bad reviews about certain expansion techniques online. Jaw hacks has a channel where he discusses this

I live in South Africa and was so sick, I ended up in hospital. My ENT couldn't pin my fever spikes but it started with right ear. I have also have chronic pain in left hand side IS joint. I tried Chiro, psyiotherapy, so many traditional routes and the pain was indescribable for a year. I stumbled on your channel two two week's ago. Iiam learning and intuitively feel that your experience, explanations - works. I am currently looking for a posture behavioural optometrist, dentist and ostepath to check my posture. We don't have a PRI practitioner here. Today I had discomfort, but not pain. Thank you so much. I am becoming so conscious of my body stance, eating, standing. You're a legend. 🎉
I developed a panic disorder after I did invisalign and they messed up my bite and I started breathing wrongly. Hips suddenly locked for half a year, too. This makes sense
I am experiencing a mild ache at the back of my neck after visiting the dentist for a root canal. I started to havebite issues because the crown was little taller which they later adjusted it . However, I have since developed pain at the base of my head where the neck and head meet, and my neck muscles have become stiff, affecting my breathing. As a result, I am now quite apprehensive about going back to the dentist.
I feel that I need my mouth piece so maybe I'm the opposite of you.
@@Nightwalker25-m3ume too. They messed up my teeth by extracting a malformed one instead of aligning it with braces. I developed a crooked septum and also panic disorders because my upper palate is growing inwards because of this one tooth extraction, its putting pressure on my brainstem. I got tingling sensations all over my head.
@saifshaikh3191 i had the same thing. My neck / bottom skull area was locked and my head would spasm and wobble if I breathed in a certain way. Very awkward and uncomfortable. Constant tension headaches. I'm a meditator so while meditating I experimented with many different tongue/jaw/neck postures. Worked on relaxing my facial muscles. I even had tension around the area of the face/skull where some people engage to wiggle their ears (i stuffed strips of paper tissues into my ears, and the rustling sound signaled when my skull/facial muscles were clenched too hard).
Eventually I found the optimal resting tongue position for my mouth, and I also practiced breathing in a way that my upper body is completely still, and only my belly is moving. I think this somehow reset some dysfunctional muscle group, and the tension headaches and head spasms gradually went away.
@AnnE-hw7ny I'm not sure what to do. My jaw has already popped about 2 times. Then second time felt like it just put my jaw out of its normal position.
I've known this for decades. I know my issue. The question has always been: Where do I go to have everything corrected or at least improved?
I was issue-free prior to the following. I had protracted dental work (2019) that kept my mouth open too far for too long and resulted in injuries to all of the mastication muscles, but especially the left masseter. I lost left-side molar occlusion, unless my neck was extended (eg looking straight up from standing position). I experienced TMJ discomfort, including temporalis tension/pain. Gradually, through repeated release/massage, all but the left masseter (maybe left pteryogoids?) calmed down, jaw opened/closed in line, but no left-side molar occlusion, for which I was constantly checking by attempting to bite equally. Subtly/gradually, I noticed the neck muscles (SCM, scalenes, splenius) getting hypertrophic, compared to the right. I asked multiple health professionals about this - "don't know, they're not that big."
At this time, I noticed extreme tension in the left trap (upper/middle) and splenius, resulting in multiple trap trigger points (left side) that caused tension at the base of the skull, which led to occipital nerve irritation that wrapped around my left eye and gave me slight left-side headaches when I bent over (increased pressure). I changed chiropractors and the new one laid blame at my loss of neck curve (xray confirmed) and prolonged forward head posture (working on it) that led to a low/no-mobility thoracic spine, all of which he's worked on since June (adjustments, stretching, etc.). My symptoms seem to be improving, with reduced headache, better range of motion, but things are still too tight in the left shoulder quadrant. Interesting finding on the xrays is that I have 2 minor spinal twists, 1 in the lumbar spine that goes counterclockwise, and 1 in the thoracic spine that goes clockwise - I assume 1 formed, and the other was formed to counter it so things stayed more or less equal, spine-wise. I have no idea if these are new, lifelong friends, or what, but I'm thinking about them anew in light of the material in this video.
I had read other articles about the link between malocclusion and weird muscle issues, and the malocclusion started to improve, where it it would be in place sometimes, but not others (depended on state of neck muscles?), so, as the masticatory/other muscles seemed to have reached a point of stability and could/would not improve/change, it made sense to consider orthodontic correction to restore the occlusion and reduce my deepish bite, so I started with invisalign in June, as well. Since starting invisalign, the aligners seem to even up the occlusion (w/o force), meaning, as I sit and lightly tap my upper and lower molars together, it feels like "good" occlusion.
Thanks for the helpful information, which confirms I needed to stop testing for occlusion, which was likely contributing to the problem(s).
I hv felt that, Anxiety, lack of presence, inability to hold focus(concentration), contribute to this instability. Haven't thought of it this way until i saw ur vid
THIS is so true to everything I am searching and finding. I have so many issues with breathing, and I didn’t notice it until I started learning meditation. I’m so excited to start practicing everything you are teaching.
I hope you have read the book Breath by James Nestor. It is an amazing and brilliant book on breathing for health!
@@elainehammonds7374 thank you, I will check it out
You Are genius
This is exactly what i am suffering from. I can't believe that I have never heard of this before, but it fits perfectly with the problems ive been experiencing for the past several years. Thank you. I now have a direction i can go in. 👏
me too!!!!
I am totally lost, it seems like you are just talking about random stuff
Omg I thought I'm the only one noticing.
Hi Neal, thanks again for creating so much digestible and important content. I’m still learning, still working with my PRT, and still making progress. 🙏
Hello Neal, do you think a bad dose of Vertigo could start all this head, jaw with constant pain from the head to the feet but only on my right side. My left side is totally different
Hi Neil, appreciate your content ! Currently going through some discomfort , quick history : 2014 Austin Bunionectomy on right foot, slight open bite, now experiencing frequent tension headaches, right side jaw clicking , neck pain and hip discomfort. I’m not sure where to start , pri specialist, airway/functional dentist or a gait specialist. Do you have any recommendations? Appreciate your thoughts on this , thanks!
Start where there's discomfort, the pain will grab your attention
I’d start with a PRI therapist found on their website.
I have been crying the entire time I’ve been watching this and your video before this!!! You are describing EXACTLY what I’ve been suffering from for at least 6-7 years!!!
I can’t sleep on my left side.
I only chew on my right side.
I have bite collapse -says my dentist. There are a few other things that now make sense!!!
My left hip has been painful, stiff/immobile. I can’t turn my left leg out - at all, unless I hold onto a wall and focus and slowly control it.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
I moved to Florida from NJ last December. When I come back, I want to see you❗️🙏❤️🌟💯👍💥
God Bless You❗️

This whole thing is surreal. I have been meditating lately because I felt, phisically, off center. I was able to see it in my posture, even in my face. I have a terribly chronic neck pain, but I refuse pain killers, so, is very annoying. Today I was doing meditation exercises, feeling the pain, releasing it, and I felt like a liberation associated with a memory. Then, I come to you tube, and I find the video from Neal on that. I mean, have never heard of PRI before today. Then I watch this video, and MAN! I do have "bruxism", but also, in 1999 had a problem with my inner ear, 3 days at the hospital. And I can see my frontal teeth, down and up, clearly misaligned! Thank you for this video. Thank you Matrix for directing me to these videos. This is weird, I did not google this, it just appeared on my feed. Now, to learn and to heal. I am literally in tears of joy.
This makes everything I've been suffering with so clear! How do I find a therapist trained to help me with this in Florida? I'm in Jacksonville.
I’m so overwhelmed by learning all this. Taking a step back, I have so many of these issues between the teeth, the diaphragm the posture instability, the feet being messed up, ribs twisted spine crooked. Jesus man I haven’t been able to diaphragmatically breathe for 3+ years. Now I have so many gastrointestinal issues and a stomach that’s pushing through my diaphragm.
I understand what you’re explaining but I don’t know how to make progress with my body if all these things are effed up and are all contributing to each other.
This is my problem. I understand what he is explaining, but if you have multiple sources that could be causing it, I am not sure how we go about it. My jaw/bite, my vision, my feet are all off. Everything feels twisted and unstable. I can’t even wear pants because my ribs move around too much! I would go to a PRI provider if I had one in my area. I feel like I have exhausted all my options here.
@@brittanydavis3554when you understand it at an intuitive level, what to do will become clear. The fact that many systems are off is a good thing, as they are all intrconnected and shift states together. Then it's like a system of equations that you solve by using info from each equation to solve the others
@@brittanydavis3554this is how I feel as well. I love learning about this stuff but applying it to myself is like what.
An osteopath could help.
It’s all part of Postural Restoration. That’s what I do for a living.
It's been three days I've been implementing your techniques .. it's all difficult but I'm going to keep going and already scheduled to see a pri certificated Dr next week.. thank you so much .. I really was desperate. Your doing God's work I swear
What’s pri certificated doctor? What do they fix? I have similar problems
❤ thank you so much for your work! I've been struggling for years.. so glad i found your channel
been battling for 8years with a tight neck, bruxism, shooting pain in the left ankle, right shoulder pain.. and this channel helped me the most, really helped a lot, managed to shift my jaw to centre from the right side, still figuring out how to sleep with weak diaphragm breathing
Hey so the midline of the bottom teeth to the right is fixable? I was scared that it meant by cranium was twisted and would mean I can't fix my issues. Also have you heard of buteyko breathing? Helps with diaphragm
Very interesting, but a question comes up. That is what if one looses a or several molars? Or has a sweet tooth canine , the adult one never came down? Also children before teeth then are they perfect? Thanks.
I have this neck and jaw tightness and this grounding issue makes so much sense to me. Thank you for this info!
Thanku for this video. This information is priceless.
Watched all of your Left AIC videos and many of the others. Practicing proper breathing and correct walking. Feels like I’m on my way. We should teach this in grade school gym/health classes. Grandma was right when she admonished “Sit up straight!” and “Walk straight! Straighten up your shoulders.” Thank you!
Ive been avoiding my SCM trigger points for 8 years...
This is brilliant, everything makes sense it bley mind. Literally everything was related is crazy. PLEASE share craneo sacral exercises/postual exercises/jaw exercises to apply please!!! Instant subscription, you're amazing and all the research done is just wow honestly you're saving people with this information right here i can guarantee you
Hi Neal, hi everybody
I had a very very very special PRI experience and I wonder if someone ever hear of something like this. At some point of my PRI program my brain started to leading me through various movements and muscle contractions for about 5 months until now. The movements are not involuntary and not voluntary, something between of this. Like a very strong need. But I feel coming more and more on my left side and my pain and tension reduces every day. My guess is, that the pri techniques take away a certain stabilisatation in my body, and now my body has to go back to it's origin natural stabilisatation state. Did someone experienced something like that?
My top and bottom teeth aren't aligned, very tight neck ,and I've suffered from migraines all my life. Thank you for this info!
I suffer the same thing. They are align and my teeth are slanted to one side more. The top and bottom teeth touch more so on one side then the other. It cause my face to be super asymmetrical.
@@thephilosopher5799 My face is also super asymmetrical. I wonder if we can change this naturally?
After reading your comments, I am here to comment that I am the third person here with this issue. Yesterday my doc gave me a night guard but my jaw is slanted and I can't figure out what to do? I saw videos on naturally treating this. I hope that could work.
Thank you, it's a fenomenal explanation. Can you give some exercises to fix this?
It’s so over
I am a retired dentist from Oz. British orthodontics is known as the worst as they go for extractions and braces to pull teeth back. Causes a million problems. I could write for hours about this. Sadly, some orthodontists are still working the old way. Mouth breathing with associated tonsil and adenoid problems leads to narrow faces. Poor air quality in the coal burning days in Britain caused terrible narrow, long faces. Look up Dr John Mew.
Well done and thanks! I asked my chiropractor where my hip troubles were coming from once and he told me it is top down. So teeth and jaws lead to it which is inturn led by my "thoughts". Less clenchy mouth, the better posture is the lesson I am taking away. In Vedic pranayama system, one is to observe the breath. It should alternate on both nostrils every two or so hours or be balanced. Just one nostril side being active all the time is to be sorted to various breathing exercises. This in turn influences everything "down" the line. Thanks again.
Thanks Neal! You bring out the truths.
I’ve intuitively believed some of what you said without knowledge to back it up. Thanks for scientifically confirming
Wow, I feel like you have given me a key to the pain I’ve been experiencing for over 15 years now!! How do I book an appointment? I live in Costa Rica lol
Are you familiar with “mewing”? Any thoughts on Dr Mews work?
Also I’ve recently started ‘mouth taping’ for sleep apnea, and I’ve been amazed at the effect on my breathing and bite alignment. Have you ever tried this yourself out with clients?
Please tell me about mouth taping.
@@jenni.getstrongxo I first heard about it on a channel called “essential craftsman” Its about as simple as it gets: tape your mouth shut before you go to sleep. I recommend Nexcore tape from 3M. It has really improved my sleep and also helped reshape my mouth and tongue so my tongue rests on the roof of my mouth.
Now is watched this video for 26 minutes. What is the solution for this Problem??? Splints? What kind of splints? Aligners or splints for Tmj?
Thank you so much for your life long dedication to the human body and posture. I wish I could thank you enough❤ I’m 35 years old. At age 12 I had a scoliosis surgery. And since then I had chronic back pain since. It sucks, and it hurt my growing body. Then as an adult I started physio, remedial message, and chiro. This helps so much with the chronic back pain. But I never needed medication.
Then at age 34 I decided to straighten my teeth. I had a slight overbite, a slight cross bite, lower teeth crowding and a narrow upper jaw. So the orthodontist (good guy) installed a expander for 6 months, and then braces. As soon as I had expanders and braces I experienced excruciating upper back pain especially during the time of my menstrual cycle. I’ve never had this type of severe pain before and I wondered if it was a vitamin deficiency? Iron? But then I’ve never felt so much back pain in my life! Now after watching this video (thank you sir) I know the back pain is definitely linked to orthodontic braces. Which makes sense because my back pain’s been on going ever since I’ve had my braces in. So much that I’ve had to take strong prescription medication for my pain. I’ve never had to ever take meds in the past, not even post scoliosis operation for the past 22 years.
Please respond to me I’d like to speak to you if you have any recommendations or concerns ❤
Makes sense it's all connected.
Could this be linked to your teeth and how you chew? Possibly cause gum/dental issues?
I have had TMJ for probably 15 years, about half my life, and my jaw clicks and everything, but I have been able to improve this by changing my anxiety levels end relaxing the muscles in my neck and jaw. However, the reason I am bringing up the TMJ is because it seems to be due to a misalignment with the actual hinge of my bottom jaw to my midline shifted upper teeth which are slightly less than a Tom Cruise level midline shift, but significant enough that I notice when I relax my jaw and work it, it doesn’t actually line up with my upper teeth. Is there anything that could be done about this? Since watching your videos I have noticed that the left side of my skull seems to be slightly pushed forward compared to the right. Is there anything posturally I could change, or in how I hold my jaw?
Following. I’ve got the same thing going on. So frustrating and I still have TMJ issues after tons of orthodontics 😖

I'm a clencher and grinder unfortunately. There must be a correlation between hip and pelvic floor mobility in relation to the jaw? Have you seen anything. Im perfectly healthy but these are my only two issues. Coincidence? I think not. Please let me know your thoughts. Thanks 🙏
🤯Taining to be a pilates instructor as entry into the body movement industry (mostly because I want to understand the body but still make a living) and these videos are introducing me to concepts I could only access intuitively. Your knowledge and instruction are phenomenal. Thank you!
I have an overbite so I know my chewing is off….by the looks of all these comments, a lot of people are saying that braces cause more problems. Now I’m scared to get braces!
Fascinating!!!
