I think I have a mild tongue tie because it doesn't hurt to rest my tongue to the top of my mouth but I do have the ridges, should I continue to mew as will this correct itself over time I'm only 17

Wow, diving down the rabbit hole and realizing all these issues I never knew I had. Started here to try to fix my posture. Who knew sleep apnea, terrible back/neck posture, tongue posture, tongue tie, receding jawline, etc. all had something in common. I've had low energy and have needed daytime naps since high school. Have spent the last decade trying to figure out why.
@ralhamami5 ай бұрын
You're amazing, man. This has been one of my biggest struggles since I was a kid-texture issues as a child, swallowing issues as a teen, most likely sleep apnea, and posture issues for as long as I can remember. I took the test, and lo and behold, I have a tongue tie. Looking forward to getting your new program.

Thank you for addressing and brining awareness to Tongue Ties. Not many people do even though it's SO important. I just recently found out I had a severe one and got the procedure to get rid of it and it has been LIFE CHANGING for me. The muscles in my neck and shoulders were so tight that it was impossible for me to bring my shoulders and neck back to stand straight and now I can do it so easily and there's no more tension (I even had tightness and tension all the way down to my calves). Exercises and stretches did nothing to help, no matter how long I did them. I HAD to get rid of the tongue tie since that was the cause of the tightness and tension. The only problem is that the muscles are weak and I have to build those muscles up to be able to maintain good posture (which I'm starting to work on which is how I found this video). I still have some tightness in my jaw to work on, but I'm still doing myofunctional therapy for it, and to strengthen my tongue so I can learn what I should have as a baby which is how to chew and swallow the right way and to hold my tongue to the roof of my mouth always. My sleep has improved significantly that I no longer have fatigue throughout the day and feel rested when I wake up in the morning. This alone made life, school, and work so difficult for me over the years. My tongue tie was the source of a lot of my problems and I have been surprised just how much of my body was affected by it and it frustrates me that it took so long for anyone to make me aware of it despite going to the dentist my whole life and having braces (and going to the doctors for some of the issues the tongue tie caused with no real help). I feel like I can be a normal person now. There are so many people suffering from a tongue tie and have no idea, despite it being so easily noticeable. It took a holistic dentist to make me aware of it and I worked with another holistic dentist for the procedure. They seemed to be the only ones really knowledgeable about the topic (in my case anyway). My mom said my pediatrician noticed it after she explained the difficulty I had breast-feeding but was told it was no big deal. Super frustrating. So thank you again for bringing it up.

I have the same issue with you having a tongue tie, weak tongue and my jaw being pulled backwards and restricting my airway. I am also not able to fully relax my neck and shoulder muscles. Did you have to strengthen your tongue before getting the tongue tie removed? What would you recommend doing? Thank you! 🙏💕
@yeahweareawesome24 күн бұрын
@@jackiek4159 Yeah you have to do exercises and stretches for about ten days before getting the procedure. I would suggest contacting a myofunctional therapist first because they will help you find the best person to do the procedure and I would make sure you choose one that's done it on adults before. I don't know if it matters but whoever does the best job and the patients had good experiences with is what counts. And make sure it's with someone who will use a laser. The laser should be the one that's common but some might still do it the old fashioned way which makes for longer healing and probably more pain. With the laser it didn't take as long to heal, even though I was still careful and ate ice cream for two days lol, and it didn't hurt much, more like it felt sore. I would suggest though if they offer you a prescription for pain meds, take it because even though it's not really painful, you will feel the soreness when doing the stretches you're supposed to do during the healing process, and I found the pain meds to make it a lot easier to do them. Also another tip, if the therapist tells you that you can get by with doing just the therapy, I highly suggest getting the procedure anyway. That's what the therapist said to my mom (who also had a tongue tie) because hers didn't look as bad as mine, but she still had trouble sleeping and had a lot of tension and decided to go with the procedure anyway and turns out hers was actually more significant than it appeared and she's glad she went ahead and did it. Also don't let anyone tell you that tongue ties aren't a big deal. If a therapist or dentist tries to, find someone else who will take it seriously. And make sure you get a follow up within a week in case they don't already have that planned. Ask plenty of questions about what to expect and what to look out for. It's honestly not a huge procedure or anything (you still want to be careful like with any procedure obviously), but it's definitely a life changing one in that you will have so much relief you won't believe it. I hope this helps!

This is crazy! When I was a kid I had breathing issues and later on braces for overbite, but before that they put in a device to keep my tongue DOWN. (Because apparently the tongue will push teeth foward & out) About 15 years later I got neck pain which NEVER went away. I'm sure this is all connected. It is so interesting to hear how everything is related. Its like all the pieces are finally coming together. THANK YOU so much for your holistic approach!!

After being in a sling for a while on the right side, I notice I have forward head posture, rounded shoulders, my ribs seem further out, got more of an anterior pelvic tilt and it’s harder to breathe when I draw the pelvis into a neutral position. Particularly on the left my lower traps have become weak, the muscles between the scapula and humerus have become tight, the scalene is very tight, and I can’t breathe so we’ll when turning my head to the left. I will definitely be trying these exercises to help correct my posture so I can return to effective training again.
