- Your posture and jaw/teeth are directly linked both muscularly and neurologically.

This interview is with Frank Mallon, a physical therapist in the Philadelphia area who integrates the discipline of Postural Restoration with dentistry for patients who need it.
When your posture is not good, your jaw might not be positioned correctly for proper orthodontic treatment. How could this be? Because your jaw hangs off of your head, but it's muscular connections are to the neck. If you are in a forward head posture, and thus your neck has lost it's natural curve, or lordosis, your jaw may not be resting in its optimal centric position. Any orthodontic treatment may lock you into a faulty forward head posture which then has repercussions upon the rest of the body. This is why any adult who is considering getting braces should be evaluated by a Postural Restoration Therapist first, to make sure that there body is "centered" before starting orthodontics.

I hated my orthodontist the minute I met him. 10 years of pain later it really is amazing how instincts work!
I wonder how common these issues are. I would’ve never guessed prior to my own process of figuring this stuff out.
I had braces in my early teens and wore the retainer for over a decade. Now I'm undoing what felt like excruciating incessant neck and jaw pain. Anyone who doesn't understand what uneven jaw alignment feels like can't comprehend agony. I understand why some people with cluster headaches contemplate hamburger time. Head, neck, and jaw pain is no joke!
I’m glad I found ways of physically and mentally coping with it before finally discovering the root cause. I can’t imagine having to deal with it for another decade or two. Doubtful that I would’ve made it to 40 without serious injuries and surgeries
@@acardinalconsideration824 how did you go about fixing it?
Had terrible teeth, got a load pulled then braces + a lazy left eye.. I never stood a chance
This video pretty much summarizes all the knowledge presented on this channel before. It's also one of the most interesting!
Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it.
@@NealHallinan I had a tooth removed and the space almost closed, is it better to have it widened again with braces and put in a tooth or have it finish closing?
Is there a minimum amount of PRI courses a dentist would have to take,to be accredited? & which ones? I’m not a dentist,just an interested consumer x
There aren't any PRI dentists. There are courses that a dentist could take that talk about what we discussed in the video. But it's really up to the PRI therapist to find a dentist to help with making splints.
The ratio of dentists who studied PRI is almost ZERO, and if you find a PRI practitioner that collaborates with a dentists, then it is usually that both have no clue what is happening and are just guessing -- don't waste your money, unless you meet Ron himself, or get a second opinion. When your nervous system is on edge, you will react to any sensory change -- be smart, use splints only if you are sure you need it, not just because of some PRI fantasy shared by someone that worked for him.
I had braces and now I have a recessed uneven jaw and scoliosis holy shit ur right
my aussie orthodontist told me there is no academic research showing relationship between jaw and pelvis. I didnt even fight back and told her I want my braces taken off right now.
For some professions, it's better to remain ignorant, for liability issues. The jaw is 100000% involved in posture (just do a Pubmed search) and since your pelvis is the foundation of your posture and your breathing, and your jaw/head is connected to your pelvis via the spine.....it's just willful ignorance on their part.
I feel you @windyui321. The Aussie orthodontists I've seen are all unwilling to listen and help. They think I'm crazy 😢
I just had first consult with a pri dentist. I guess I’m really wildly rare even from a pri perspective. I was apparently able to get myself out of a hyper mobile right torsion. He laughed at how fast I was able to shift when he did some initial tests. Thanks for all the content you put out, it apparently helped stabilize me enough that I could make the long trip to the nearest pri integration center. Get my device(s) in may, the pri pt said it will be a lot of fun lol.
How much was the cost compared to typical stuff and was insurance involved? I have a crazy misaligned jaw and a cumulative 8 years of braces 😭😭
@@CharnHorpeeThink in price it’s comparable to braces. Not a clue on the insurance side. Your best bet is to find a pri center near you and do an in person consultation. Closest one for me was a 7h drive across the boarder. I’m incredibly lucky that this was even a possibility. I had zero clue I had a issue with my teeth/tmj and thought I just had crippling back pain. The pri exercises my pt gave helped tremendously with my tmj and haven’t even gotten the dental stuff done yet. Hope any of my ramblings help.
Can you please share who your pri dentist is?
@@geoffmcvyou r in Canada? Me too, no one in toronto do PRI for u?
Do you believe this applies to tooth caps and crowns as well? I ask because in order for me to fix my posture it felt as though mine had to come out.
ok but what if your jaw is causing the bad posture and you need jaw surgery/braces. I didn't have any problems with my posture until I had to remove two teeth and my pallet started getting more narrow with airway issues. Now it feels like my whole body is collapsing😩😔
Need to fix the body first and get neutral.. using splints is one way but only right type of splints not just any kind. Doing surgery on a twisted body is rather risky
What is your opinion on maxillary expansion? It is supposed to help with sleep apnea and tmd, but I am worried this can cause further misalignment and other issues.
thank you for saving my back and legs and neck and shoulders.
how? what did you do
My friend is a dentist i want his take on this im gonna show it to him
I’ll never get bored of PRI.love you lot x
Notice how nobody ever talks about a permanent solution other than a splint, cause nobody knows a permanent solution
Braces? Good luck with that
Well, permanent solutions don't always exist in life. We do our best.
@@NealHallinan Exactly, and I think professionals in the field should be more honest about it.
A "we don't really know" sometimes is better than a botched guessing orthodontic work.
I may sound harsh but I talk from experience
Thanks for spreading awareness on the issue as always
@@sosathegreat Trust me, I get it. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have developed tinnitus at age 13, and chronic pain thereafter, if the orthodontist was more aware of things that I talk about in this video. It basically debilitated me from the ages of 22-35.
What kind of records are being obtained for the occlusion? Jaw tracking, EMGs, Joint Vibrational analysis, T-Scan, Acculiner Articulator Analysis, 3D Cone Beam Analysis, Sleep Study? Or are you just guessing what the maxillary and mandibular position should be?
It depends on the dentist. My dentist, who I did an interview with on this channel, used some sort of articulator.
The dentist I work for starts out with an exam and 3D cone imagining
I’m going to watch a lot more of this video later so apologies if this was already answered in the video, but do you(or anyone you know of) have any experience with working with an adult as they go through gradual ‘palatal expansion’ treatment? I’m definitely not going with any sort of rapid palatal expander as this would virtually be guaranteed to worsen my right torsion, but I absolutely need to move my teeth and gradually expand my palate to have a sustainable, stable, neutral posture from my head to my toes. I had my underbite camouflaged as a kid in a very unsustainable way and now I have quite an underdeveloped maxilla. Luckily, my camouflaged underbite and openbite aren’t too severe so I think I should be able to avoid surgery altogether. I’m at a tossup between the ALF appliance and the DNA appliance. I feel that the ALF would be a safer bet, but would likely take a lot longer. Have you heard of right torsions being treated with a DNA appliance? Thank you for everything 🙏
In the same boat as you but looking into jaw surgery since expansion wouldn't necessarily help with the tmj/jaw.breathing issues im facing. Figured out a way to check, add me on instead if you wanna talk more im curious what you'll do
@paige.campbell Hey! I plan on trying the ALF appliance combined with splint therapy for awhile before committing to surgery. Hopefully if I eventually need surgery to completely resolve these issues, at the very least my skeletal structure and functionality of my tongue will be more prepared going into the process and I’ll decrease the odds of post-surgery relapse. Have you looked into the ALF appliance or the DNA appliance?
Could getting braces help rotated pelvis?
for whatever reason i noticed my jaw was slightly misaligned yesterday so i shifted it like 2mm to the right and just clamped down all day trying to reset it, now today it feels like the whole right side of my head is expanding and there was a massive pressure release, even around to the back of my skull, and my posture is somehow better.
I got a splint from my dentist about two years back because I kept clenching my jaw because of work stress. It seam to really have ducked things up for me!
At first the whole contact points in my mouth shifted. My chewing got really weird and uncoordinated. Now, two years later I have really bad jaw cracking und tightness. Also my ears seam to always be hurting. Not from infection but from a tight jaw and overstimulated nerve endings I thing.
I have just recently started watching the channel. What are some good live choices one can make to get back on the right path. Does yoga help?
This entire channel is about the discipline of Postural Restoration. That will help more than yoga. But you need a therapist to help you.
Hey Neal , i hope you reply to this cause im getting an acrylic splint but idk wich one to ask from my doctor , normal splint or flat surface ? does the normal splint work better for molar and teeth sens than the flat surface ? I have an overbite with the front teeth covering the bottom when closing my jaws ( i have tmj disorder from jaw clenching )
Ny left hip is high and forward and my right shoulder is high and forward. What kept me in this position was the lack of a left upper molar. Whenever I chew on my left side i become way more even but not completley since the muscles are still keeping me in a fixed postiton from the poor posture. I was wondering what stretches and strengthening exercises i could do. Your help would be appreciated.
What should we do if we have a complete facial asymmetry, please talk about this. All these videos are just abstract things without concrete results...
The convo at ~40 about neutral assessment is I think soo crucial. Yoga unlocked this for me neutralizing assessment for me, and that kind of 'hang breathing' and rising vertebrae by vertebrae, with feet grounded etc. and jaw unlocked (mouth breathing) and eyes closed shows me at least that that's where my body wants to be when aligned (Standing at least, which is what I want to prioritize). Also idk if you guys are talking about tongue at all in this video but it seems tongue stabilizing (mewing if you will) is also crucial and I dont know if I've come across a Jon video about it yet. Helps further with stabilization and demonstrates if there's not enough pallet room for the tongue.
Tongue is a huge deal I could never get neutral without tongue sealed to roof of mouth.
Everybody make orthodontic treatment without knowing if they are neutral or not. They do braces to correct teeth but i think most of them have no issues about some bodily pain. So i think we can’t blame the most pain to the orthodontist or teeth.
From my experience, the people with the most stubborn pain and worst symptoms are those with oral cavity issues, whether they have had braces or not.
Hey Neal, this video saved me from undergoing an orthodontic treatment that could have caused permanent cranial torsion.
After consulting with several orthodontists, I finally found one who makes centric relation splints and understands the importance of the underlying structures, not just the teeth. While the splint improved my neck range of motion (and by extension, my ribcage and pelvis), it didn't completely resolve my cranial twisting issues.
I've since learned of the importance of proper tongue posture and also discovered that I have a narrow and asymmetrical palate which is preventing me from fully placing my tongue on it-specifically, the right side is narrower and steeper, causing the left side of my tongue to engage more.
Could you make a video explaining how narrow and asymmetrical palates relate to neck and cranial compensatory patterns, and how to address this issue?
Really glad I came across your channel Neal... But I'm in New Zealand. In the late 90's I had my canines filed off by my dentist, upper molars removed for braces, then a few years later wisdom teeth removed. I used to play guitar professionally, but can no longer even play it as a hobby due to being in constant pain due to excessive muscle tension (gone on for years). Every body movement I make freezes my muscles into that position. On the bright side, these videos explain exactly what has caused these issues for me.
Sorry to hear about your struggles. I have another video where I interviewed a dentist and show examples of the mandibular splint. Perhaps you can find a dentist in New Zealand to make you one. It may not work perfectly because you don't have anyone to help you with the "body" aspect of all this, but it could potentially help restore some balance to your oral cavity.
@@NealHallinan Thanks Neal, appreciate your reply. You're a pioneer. I will follow that up.
I’m very curious to what happens to the adults who suspected something may be off with their bite/oral posture, and then underwent Invisalign through a dentist without knowing about any of this - while being patterned before and after treatment. Are those people just screwed for lack of a better term since they had postural imbalances before having Invisalign done?
It really depends on the person. But the reality is, if someone develops pain in their knee or hip after orthodontic treatment, they usually won't suspect the orthodontic treatment. They will get PT for their hurting body part. So the sample size is pretty small....I have plenty of people who come see me for bodily pain, and to say that they are shocked to realize their jaw/teeth are locking them up is an understatement. But they can't deny what they are seeing: they lack joint range of motion is their hips and shoulders, but when I manipulate their bite, they have the range of motion.
Right now, me, but by going to end the treatment
This is so important ! Thank you!
Great to know. I am having issues and was also thinking of getting braces, which would probably make everything worse. Thank you!
So I noticed when Frank was listing his issues, he mentioned his body twitching. I’m in the process of doing myofunctional therapy and expanding my palate in order to release a tongue tie that my PRI therapist thinks is root cause of constant, debilitating low neck pain (also neck and mid neck pain constantly…but the low back keeps me from doing much). Anyway, I’m just focusing on breathing to try and calm my nervous system down until I get tie released and we can really start PRI again. But I’m noticing as I let go of tension slowly in areas of my back and abs, my body will twitch in the exhale and I will not be abide to breath out steadily. Like my body is terrified to fully relax. Is this what you experienced? Is it indicative of further issues elsewhere?
Hey Neil. What type of PRI activity would you reccomend for rounded shoulders (depressed sternum)? I can get my hips and shoulders neutral but the moment I start slouching I revert back to the left Aic pattern.
Does the fascial massaging (that’s become popular) interfere with the P.R.I. practice?
On my last invisaliner, many things are resolving. Hopefully i'm centered and in a good position. Do you have a pri specialist in denver, co you recommend?
There are some PRI providers in the Denver/Ft. Collins area. Just check the PRI website.
Neill what about if the maxila is on an angle? Can PRI fix this?
I'm sure there are some PRI therapists in Texas that do have that experience. You'd have to enquire with some of them (I think you are in Texas)
My orthodontist always told me I have a perfect bite (i am currently re-correcting one of my front tooth) just to find out literally one week ago that I chew uneven and have lack of sensing on my ride side so my whole body middle is shiftet and rotatet. I also noticed my facial asymmetry makes exactly that portion to which my head is tilted in order to stay straight. Now when I straighten my head like it’s supposed to my vision is sort of sideways. To you have any recommendations neal?
I have braces but i have chronic pain on my neck and shoulder on right side. Is it problem that i have braces? Because i had this same pain before braces
I wonder if eating too fast versus slowly chewing has any impact on the jaw muscles.
I'm eating while I watch this and wow i notice I aggressively chew with my right molars. Trying to chew just on the left side feels so weird.
Hey Neal, have you had personal experience with the ALF appliance? Or did you feel as though it wasn’t needed for your particular case?
I don't have experience with an ALF. Some dentists don't actually like to use ALFs. Some do.
@@NealHallinan If im someone who has a narrow, asymmetrical palate, would you lean towards recommending it? Im leaning towards the ALF over the DNA appliance because it seems like a more functional appliance with a lot less room for provider-error.
@@acardinalconsideration824how did you go?
@@joaomorim2761 Ordered the ALF a little over a month ago, hoping that it’ll be here within the next couple of weeks 🤞
@@acardinalconsideration824any update?
HI Neal, I appreciate your work 👏🏻.
Could you tell me what anatomy models are you using? Thanks in advance!
Got one for 2.5+ years already 💀Now I gotta do my best to care for it and leave the rest. Thank you for all!
When are you going to wean off it??
Hi Neal. You r in new jersey New York? How long people need to stay there to see u? I never seen an PRI physiotherapist.
Come to think about it, my hip and back pain really flared up after my orthodonics
Do you know if there is any connection between the asymmetrical patterns and vision problems? I ask because I have all the trademark asymmetries in my face, neck, teeth, and jaw, and the vision in my left eye is going to crap. It's only my left eye though; my right eye is still perfect. If there is a connection, would be great to see a video on this, and in particular, if there is anything that can be done about it. Cheers!
Yes, vision can be involved. The muscles of the eyes greatly influence the cranial bones, because they are very strong. But also, when someone can't perceive visual space appropriately, the body will "posture itself' around what it "sees". If only one eye is working, there will be some postural distortion. I've made some videos about vision and posture.
@@NealHallinan Thanks! I'll check out your other videos on vision. That said, I was more asking if posture/structure can compromise vision, as opposed to the other way around (ie: could the vision in my left eye be going downhill due to asymmetries in my head and neck?) Cheers.
@@scottk1525I have the same problem in my left eye. The blind spot got bigger by the year.
I have a feeling that my posture started to distort more and my left eye is loose in the socket or the connections are damaged. Or it can be a distorted cranium since I found my face started to change over the years after wisdom teeth removal.
I'm looking to get double jaw surgery to help balance the jaw's symmetry and enlarge my small airway so I can breathe in better posture.
I've been working on this for a few years and this is the best solution I've come up with along my journey.
However before I go ahead with the jaw surgery, I'm going to book a consultation with Neal to see if and how my cranium will shift after jaw surgery.
Open to speak with you if it resonates and share our journeys.
All the best.
I had a tooth removed and the space almost closed, is it better to have it widened again with braces and put in a tooth or have it finish closing?
Where can I get a specialist like you in Argentina?
Same question
Anyone want to summarise this bad boy for me? 😂
😂I'll try later when I complete it, as I want to exercise my articulation
@@mehdilee oh please do, articulate till you can’t anymore 😂 but seriously, thanks! 👍 especially Neals advice on solutions would be most helpful. We always want to know what we can do about the problem!
Basically "if you're a serious dental patient you are going to be dependent on a splint for the rest of your life, and If it doesn't work, you're screwed"
Neal! For the begining I will say that i am not good in English.
So After my researches I understood that no reason on what leg u are staying on, if you on right it doesnt mean that right will be higher.
You have to understand only one thing that pattern is not correct and if you have tight muscles on front of ribcage from left but main leg is left you have to put your left leg ahead and left should back
You are saying that humans don't have a bigger right diaphragm and a left hemisphere of the brain that controls the right side of the body? Because that is what the pattern is. It has nothing to do with what leg you stand on. Most people do place more of their weight on the right leg than the left, but that is not the pattern.
Good morning, my name is Natale I am 43 years old and I am writing from Italy for many years I have been suffering from postural and TMJ problems, block of the left TMJ and also immediately surgery by chance is there anyone who uses your techniques here in Italy who can help me?
I don't know of any PRI therapists in Italy. There are two in Germany, however. You can check the PRI website.
Where is the video exercise program on UA-cam for us to follow and correct our own posture?
None which works for everybody, so no
@@schminke89 other channels offer self-care treatments when they allow us to issues we need to address. Does this channel not do that
If you have teeth issues or jaw, exercises won't fix you alone
Are there any practitioners in Australia who could help me with this issue (jaw / body alignment)? There seems to be no PRI practitioners in Australia. I'm in Melbourne. The prospect of flying to the USA for treatment is gradually growing on me. Are there any general terms or other modalities that work in this issue, other than PRI? Should I try and find an informed orthodontist or physio or some other specialist?
Have you found anyone? I'm aldo in melbourne.
@@jackiek4159 No, I tried reaching out to some TMJ places, but no luck so far.
I’m going to see a behavioral optometrist in docklands and lifetime holistic dental in Prahran for Alf appliance hopefully with the pri knowledge can maximize results🙏🏽 as I’m already experiencing so many benefits just habitually hold my breath due to eye/bite pattern I believe. Hope this helps
This is valuable information
I never got any canines, to even it out they removed my teeth beneath..The dentist then gave me braces and later in life all my molars were taken out. And now I learn that I see double too. It's hard to know where to even begin. 🤥
Why you have a Brazilian flag behind you?
Hi neal im 20 from Bulgaria, and have been experiencing back pain for years. I have a jaw shifted to the left and a lateral pelvic tilt, had braces, but it didnt fix the problem. Im going to get an Invisalign soon, and hopefully fix it, but i have a molar that has a flap and is stuck in the mandible , that might not be able to be fixed. Would only recentering help
@user-gd1lp5uz7k have there been improvements in your posture
After 7 years of being wrapped by the dentist, I can say that it has really damaged my posture.
I have has invisalign. Which pushed an overlapping left bottom canine from the outside to the inside.
My teeth look really straight. But now my tooth is really pushing really jaw to the right and I find it hard to close my back left molars due to the new pushing pressure.
I now have started to get an extremely tight right side jaw and SEM.
Is there anything I can do or practice?
Hi Neal. I got my two molars removed 2 years ago and started having braces. But a year ago I started having all the wired symptoms. But before all the wired symptoms I got a y strap and SI joint adjusted by a chiro(which I didn’t ask for it I didn’t have any issues) anyway. I want to ask if it cause by the braces and molars removed. It normally takes that long(a year) for the body to feel wired(twisted pelvic and sympathetic type CS mainly) ? Or likely it was from the chiro you think? Sorry it’s long.
I just don’t know I should take the braces off or continuing having it.
Great video! Here’s a question, do cavity fillings have an impact on natural occlusion? In other words, does it essentially “block” our teeth(particularly molars) from touching correctly? Would love to know your thoughts
Hi Neal I've recently discovered your channel and I appreciate the information you are giving out in those videos but I'm lost at finding a PRI therapist in my country( India ). I have the same asymmetry as you did and posture problems leading to chronic upper back and neck pain and also a l5-s1 bulge (mild discomfort ). I really need help on finding out where to start and which part i need to focus on fixing.
I would genuinely appreciate a response from you.
Hello, if I have a “snaggle” tooth on my right (canine) what do I do if I can’t feel where my teeth should meet for that connection to be made with my brain?
Also, I was born without wisdom teeth. How will this affect me during PRI?
Can someone answer? Should i be worried that my teeth moving bcoz I didnt wear retainer after it broke. Kinda feel it moves a lot more than originally it is. My face face shape also changing bit. It is one of the decision I regret making as I realize it was not that bad actually. Outsiders never commented as I belatedly realize. I dont remember how it looks as it one of the things that traumatize me. I am recovring from trauma.
Do i need to wear clear aligners as braces is not recommended from what I understand?
Does this apply for Invisalign as well?
I have horrible TMJ problems that began during my Invisilign treatment 7 years ago. Top teeth were mostly straight, but the bottoms were very crooked. Used my dentist who was top rated by invisalign. I started feeling like my jaw & teeth were connecting & sliding funny when I'd chew. Then it turned into horrible clenched jaw & grinding 24/7, even while awake. It kept getting worse during treatment. My dentist kept saying it was fine, stick with the process. My teeth looked better.
I had zero grinding or TMJ stuff beforehand. I eventually had to go through several specialists. I have joint erosion & am trying to avoid surgery. I wear very expensive heavy-duty splints day & night, not even like regular splints. It's caused major gum erosion from so much force on the tooth roots.
I know tons of ppl w/ great results, but I've decided that no one should use a dentist for it at all. Not even one that's highly rated by the company.
Do it with an orthodontist. They're trained to take that stuff way more seriously. They know other things to look at & adjust. Plus I know a few ppl that their orthos were able to suggest more things to the invisalign company to adjust before making the aligners. Their orthos were able to get changes for overall better tooth appearance/visual balance than just having straight teeth.
@@hk-yc4je dude I developed grinding and clenching as well I guess from the aligners tightening up the cranial system. I'm using a top rated ortho for Invisalign. The clenching has gotten a little better as my bite is getting a little more balanced but still dealing with a tight neck due to the aligners. What made your grinding improve?
@saadimadina1337 After finishing the invisalign, I ended up having to find new dentists that specialized in TMJ. Then I got sent to TMJ-only specialists & bounced to Drs with more & more experience until I got my current guy. We did a 2 1/2 yr multiple step process wearing jaw orthotics that finally stopped the grinding.
A year ago, i was able to switch to maintenance splinting. I still have issues of my jaw wanting to clamp shut (can't open to talk, brush teeth, drink anything). Wearing splints will be permanent, but overall I feel much better. My neck & jaw don't hurt anymore.
@@hk-yc4je did you work with any PRI therapist ?
@@hk-yc4jewhat jaw orthotics are you referring to?
Hey Neil, going to look into on my own, but maybe you have an answer at the ready. If I'm missing a molar, is an implant or dental bridge a good solution? Is implant best or is it a problem because of this fixed spot we are creating in the mouth?
What if you only feel your right canine always. When I close my mouth I have no left or right molar sense. I only sense my right canine. Is this a likely cause for back pain?
Is there a point where the traditional splint (like the MOOO or MMOO) isn’t enough and actual orthodontia like an ALF is require. I guess in other words can the splint not be enough and you need to resort to orthodontia
I had orthodontic treatment as an adult with already some postural issues, I live in helll since.
Can dental implants be a way to replace missing teeth are regaining those necessary senses? If so, would they need to be made in any particular way?
then i lost my molar also on that same side
What about retainer wire, should it be removed if you're experiencing a left aic pattern?
Please comment on utility of ALF appliance kind of options for maxilla expansion
so what he is basically saying is that in order to get any orthodontic treatment the body has to be aligned all together?
I had appointments with him helped me so much!!!! Love Dr.Frank
Great video as always Neal! I've been working with Frank in the Philly area for over a year now, and he has provided life changing results through both dental and visual integration! Can't thank him enough!
My teeth were crocked but the bottom middle two teeth. What postural change would.that be?
Hey Neal, does getting our wisdom teeth removed negatively affect our posture from the PRI perspective? Or is it fine to get them removed?
I saw a forum that mentioned a dude got better mobility after Ron told him to get his wisdom teeth removed
Great video as always Neal. Would you consider doing a video on Neuro Cranial Restructuring?
Your knowledge about human musculature is the only thing that really makes sense!
Can the problem be solved after u had braces?
Thanks for this video
How can I book a consult with you directly?
Is Frank the only pri specialist out there that does this level of dental integration? Can other pri specialists do this?
Yes, others can do the same thing.
PRI explains stuff amazingly but is very poor at treatment. It makes people obsessed with their senses. Most patterns are habitual, and you try to fix them with splints and glasses. Don't buy into this, if you are in pain, there are better ways to fix this!
@@bbb7331 PRI doesn’t treat anything. It inhibits tension due to asymmetry.
@@NealHallinan Yeah, catch me by the word treat. So here you go: in most cases it does not inhibit, or release tension.
BTW, inhibiting a pattern is a form of treating pain and symptoms. So anyone knows that your answer "does not treat" is not helpful.
@bbb7331 what do you recommend instead?
@@jjthomas8171 Your nervous system is adaptable. Before russhing on putting unneeded splints or glasses, try to get in and out of movement patterns dynamically. Search taro iwamoto on youtube. Helps a ton!
Can anyone point me in the direction of someone who specialises in this in the UK?
You can send an email in the pri official website and they will awnser in no time .
Wow thank you 🙌🏽
Makes so much for the logic. Thanks!
had 13 teeth pulled growing up, 4 of them adult teeth, 2 + years of braces and "jaw correction" and 10+ years later have so many imbalances. Been working with a PRI practitioner recently and hopefully getting these terrible "permanent" retainers off soon to hopefully start fixing all these
Did u get the permanent retainers off and did it help?
@@brycetaylor7917 hey! I did! Felt super weird, but not in a bad way. Tension in my temples, eyes and forehead dropped significantly, and I didnt even know how much tension was present until getting them off. Also, feel slightly more “calm” overall.
I really appreciate your response. I had a similar situation. Have had lower back pain. I am just worried that my teeth will shift if I get the retainers removed, leaving me with a worse bite and more pain
@@brycetaylor7917 totally understandable. I was worried in beginning to, however we did the removable retainers that I alternate everynight ( upper, lower, upper etc. ) to mitigate any issue. So far so good! I would see about getting linked up with a PRI practioner and they can help too! Apparently a balanced body shouldnt cause too much teeth shift!
@@brycetaylor7917 you could also look into some hipflexor releases / stretches coupled with glute / core strengthening to see if that helps lower back. Kinda cross it off the list ya know
