Jaw - Hips - Pelvis Connection. Understand about the anatomy and link between jaw and hip tension 💙

  • •Explore the anatomy and connections between the jaw, hips and pelvis. Did you know that if you have jaw tension, you could help it by releasing tension in the hips? And if your hips are tight, loosening tension in the jaw could help?
    It has long been known in Chinese medicine that the two are linked, but recent scientific studies and research have shown that there really is a connection. Here I take you through some of the links to consider when we're thinking about the body.
    Although this could be useful for anyone, it's particularly useful for singers as jaw tension can be a big hinderance when improving your singing technique.

    I was in choir as a kid and teenager, and they would tell me to breathe with my diaphragm. I was physically incapable and couldn't figure out why for years. I only recently found out it's because my hips were tight and pulling on my diaphragm and keeping it from being able to contract and relax naturally. Doing some hip flexor stretches immediately improves my diaphragm function everyday. I'm so curious if anyone else has had this issue. I feel like I'm the only one.

    • @VoxYoga

      'Breathe with the diaphragm' can be a difficult direction to follow as it's always working! However, tight abdominals and core (which the hip flexors are part of) can restrict movement of the diaphragm. Glad to hear that hip stretches have helped and it's definitely a relationship to explore!

I’m so thankful for this video, and completely relate to your situation! I just started doing some concentrated stretches on my hip flexors, and hope it starts reaping benefits in my singing! Thank you for sharing your experience! It makes me feel like I’m not alone too.

      Definitely not the only one lol it’s all on the psoas muscles & everything else around the hips (obliques, glutes, etc)
      Crazy enough aside from it also having affected my jaw but also shoulder imbalance. The body is completely systematic so one imbalance will cause another elsewhere. Bc of so much tightness, i also struggled with breathing deep from diaphragm. But one thing for sure to know is where the problem stems from. Stretching, breathing techniques, electrical therapy devices & other methods have helped wonders

    When I was preparing to labor with my second child, I ran into exceptional advice and it was all I could think of during labor: keep your jaw relaxed. During each contraction that was the only thing I focused on, keeping my jaw soft. From start to finish labor lasted 4 hours and I attribute that to keeping my jaw relaxed. Needless to say, this makes a lot of sense to me!

    I seriously want to cry... I'm 52 and you've just explained why I've been in so much pain and discomfort my whole adult life. I gave birth to my son a few weeks after I turned 18. It was a really difficult labour and he was a BIG baby. Six months after he was born I was walking around slightly leaning to the side, with him on my hip, when all of a sudden my jaw locked up. Anything wider than a straw wouldn't fit between my teeth. A few hours later it released by itself but it was never the same. I've never been able to open it anymore than two a half finger widths. Since that time.. slowly and surely over the years, my whole skelatal structure has pretty much fallen apart. It's curved, it's bent, I can't stand straight. My jaw is totally out of allignment and always hurting. With the birth of my subsequent child, and then my grandchildren.. I noticed the overall problem would suddenly get worse from constantly leaning to the side and carrying them on my hip. I've now reached the point of being in so much pain all the time, I can barely think straight. But at least now I can start fixing the problem and hopefully get my life back. THANK YOU.!!!! xx

    I love this combo of modalities. I’m a singer and was not aware there was a connection between the jaw and hips. I’ve been doing fascia release exercises from The Human Garage on YT for a few weeks and have had some major relief from discomfort in my body. Also, Dr. Gabor Mate’s vids talk about childhood trauma being held in the fascia. I highly recommend watching both along with your videos.

    I was just sitting in the lotus position, doing some hip and sciatic stretches, turn on UA-cam to listen to some binaural beats and then WHABAM! I sit right into the pain in my hip and then all of a sudden my jaw started feeling - I don’t know how to explain it but it felt uncomfortable and the muscles started twitching. And then I look down at my phone and this video is listed as “Suggested” to watch.
    I didn’t search for anything about hips or jaw or pain or anything. It just popped up - and I needed it. Thanks for this. Also still totally weirded out that this video popped up without me even searching for anything related to it… yet here I am. Thank you either way.

      I never like to say 'yes it'll erase' but our hip flexors have a huge effect on the position of our pelvis, our spine and neck then respond to this. So releasing the hip flexors could have a big effect on overall alignment. Glad you're enjoying the chanting!

    Very interesting. I discovered connection between coccyx and voice when singing tenor in choir. The more the tension went in my hips and coccyx, the more easily I could reach high notes, albeit only falsetto. In fact I discovered that whereas normally I would struggle to reach top A, but when my coccyx dropped significantly I was able to reach the C above, and on one occasion the Eb above. I have always had a lisp and I have always had a theory that it is related to tension in the coccyx and shoulders. Somehow it causes my tongue to push forward and be too large for the mouth, hence a lisp. About 30 years ago I was studying Alexander Technique and practicing meditation and I got further than I have ever got with it and reached a state that I can only describe as Nirvana. More recently I discovered an Alexander Teacher online and he actually used the expression 'Nirvana in the Neck'. which is a good description of my experience. I also experienced that we actually have two responses to gravity, like the trees. Our upper half actually tries to pull us upward away from earth, whereas our lower half, below the waist pulls us down towards the earth, just like a tree. Our waist represents the section of the tree where it meets the soil. It is a fascinating subject and when I tried explaining it to my cousin a few years she said I had found my vocation. In the end I think it is all about lengthening the spine, which is subject of yoga and as the spine lengthens breathing is improved (pranayama) . I have also discovered the releasing the coccyx is also often the cure for lower back pain.

    Craniosacral and Polarity therapy are bodywork modalities that work specifically with the diaphragms, structural alignment, and energetic integrity of relationships like this one in the video. Trauma is held and healed through these regions of the body accompanied by dialogue between the client and therapist.

    Omgosh!!!! I discovered this jaw hip connection by accident. I was under personal stress for some time and my jaw was bothering me for a couple months. I finally decided I would have to go to the DDS for a night guard. On the same day I decided it was time to seek dental help, I also realized my hips were hurting (and I do yoga/stretch everyday at least for 10 min) as an equestrian it is a must to have limber pelvis. I dug in to the hips with intention AM and PM and the next AM. Woke up and hips were feeling much better. On my long drive home from the barn I suddenly realized that my jaw was relaxed and not bothering me! I was astonished but did not make the connection yet. Later while pondering the fact that both areas were feeling better, I wondered if there might be a connection and VOILA!! I have found much info to support the jaw hip connection!! Thank you for posting this!! Makes perfect sense!❤

    Super interesting.
    As a violinist during music college I had an Alexander Technique teacher who constantly pointed out the effects inner tension has on areas such as the neck/jaws/tongue and the pelvis, as well as the knees and feet/ankles.
    For a long time I had to learn to relax the pelvis, the neck, etc. in order to relax the whole body.
    The sensation of freedom and the sound I then got out of my instrument were immense; I’ve never since been able to repeat this in quite the same way, without his guidance… a real eye opener.

    This is amazing. Many times if you have tension on the jaw and you try to relax the jaw you get kind of lost in that problem, fixing the problem and it won’t work. But when you relax part of your body that is not hurting like consciously relax your lower body the painful tension in your jaw disappears more likely. Wonderful, thank you!

I got chiropractic help past few weeks and my tikt is better, and also my tmj pain seemed to have stopped. Incredible

    As a brand new Veteran's Yoga Project trained Yoga Teacher, A Science Teacher, a Health and Wellness Coach, a black woman who actively has tight hips and constantly find my teeth and jaws clenched and my tongue stuck to the roof of my mouth, I so appreciate this video. I've never seen your content before, and UA-cam had this video as the first one on my recommended videos to watch today. I Am tremendously grateful. I love when I can make connections like this and also connect all facets of my life. I'm learning that I love the anatomy of yoga and this video was a perfect way to start my deeper dive into it. As I nerd out on anatomy and yoga, I Am sure I'll find my way back to your content. Thank you, also, for showing how you've married things that I can clearly see you're passionate about. This video was the medicine I needed, and didn't know I needed. Thank you Rosie! Namaste 📿🙏🏾

    WOW. The throat exercise made my stomach hurt terribly. I have never felt that pain. I am very expressive and do not have trouble combatting problems or communicating. My sister and mother are the opposite and frequently describe a stomach pain when faced with problems!!!!!! I really think it has to do with this tightening up you mentioned.... My stomach still hurts 5 minutes later!!!
