Is there a diet and supplements beneficial for maintaining ones skeletal health ? Thanks and all the best from an old guy who practices walking meditation .

[@janelled349]

Maybe some safe stretches for lower back during pregnancy if that is possible. Gaining extra weight put so much discomfort on my lower back due to major injury about 4 years ago and there were so few things i could find to help PROPERLY and safely stretch... ❤

[@DrRowe]

@@QuantumPyrite_88.9 I believe that common sense things (like healthy foods, cutting out sugars, etc.) make the biggest difference. That does sound like a great video suggestion though, I'll look into it. Thanks!

Yeeeesss!!! This is exactly what I need! Suddenly found myself forming this on my back and I'm like what no no no this cannot even happen! Took some wrong turns these last couple years after that... medical condition we can't discuss after being healthy my whole life and never thought my body would be in this shape so I have a ton of work to do. Thanks so much for your help. You have no idea how much you mean to all of us out here.

My chiropractor, who I’ve seen for 15 years, told me mine is just from me gaining weight (I’m over weight now). But after my 3rd child who I breast fed (with horrid posture) is when this came about. I swore it was posture and even feel my muscles being strained there. But no, I’m told it’s because of my weight gain. Thank you so much for this video!

[@DrRowe]

Hope the exercises help, and please give us an update soon.

It’s probably a little bit of both if you’re over weight. Mine personally has fat but it’s also posture. I’m trying to work on both. Good luck! )

The back pod creator says that your body protects overused joints etc by accumulating fat around them, ie, the hump.

Proof or it didn’t happened

[@OhPleaseMary]

Omg, thank you! This has been the most helpful demonstration EVER. Listen, I've got scoliosis rods on either side of my spine - but where the rods end at the top, forget it - I think it's called kyphosis (sp?), but I just pitch forward. I was a big fall risk, so, after my surgery 7 yrs ago, I walked with my head down watching my feet, so as not to trip - coupled with my large breasts and just the regular, modern day stuff that causes neck humps - and at 59, I'm like, not looking too cute in the posture department! 🥴 I'm determined to be standing up straight, walking into 60 - head held high - and you're gonna help me! Don't think I haven't watched a million of these types of videos and havent gone for lots of PT - Oh, I have!! YOUR video pinpointed the problem areas - and I FINALLY, after 7 yrs., actually, FELT, specifically, where my problems are 🤯 Such a game changer, THANK YOU!

Thank you for the information! Im curious if getting rid of the buffalo hump can also help with the appearance of a shallow chin? My thought is, if Im leaning my neck forward and all the muscles involved are all misaligned or tense, this can exaggerate the appearance of a shallow chin? I definitely have a bit of a buffalo hump - so once I work that out, Ill see if it improves my profile.

can you show us how to do trigger point therapy with the muscles on the side of the neck towards the front. There seems to be many layers of them. Mine have horrible knots in them and I try to release but don't think I'm doing it right. I feel the referral pain in the back of my neck and the release is amazing but it doesnt last and I never seem to get the knot to go away. I tried percussion massager drill thing and broke it. I also tire my fingers out doing it. I tried devices but they are usually too short to get all the way to the point to release. My doc said I have the biggest hump he has ever seen. I have spondylolisthesis at L5 S1 at 50% and two vertebrae above that at about 20 so logic tells me that's why my kiphosis is so bad. Stupid me had surgery and made it so much worse, broke the hardware (Titanium screw!!). Thanks for any help you can give. Just found you and trying to go through all your videos.
