The McKenzie Chin Tuck (Rosie Mew's version): How Body Posture Affects the Face | Exercise

[@Orthotropics]

There has been some debat that excessive chin tucking can lead to vertebral impingment. Howeer we think it's a terminology issue more than anything. In some ways this is not a classic chin tuck, possibly we should just Rebrand the exercise that we describe, as a Cervical wall extensions done in conjunction with 5 Mewing pulses and a Mewing suction hold."

This actually works. I found out mewing, i started mew, then i read i should fix my forward head posture first. So i started doing this exercise plus mewing for about two months and ive seen result. My head moved back and it looks normal now. I didnt have much forward head posture, but i had. Guys dont give up if you start feel pain on your neck. The neck receives a lot of tension and it is going to Hurt, but that means it works. Hope to start seeing better results with mewing now.. Lets see!

[@stefanj3601]

Do you have Instagram. May I see your progress?

[@kiriakoskkk8477]

@@stefanj3601 I dont have much progress my friend. Just my neck moved a little bit back. My jawline didnt improved to be honest, or i cant see results due to my cheeks. I lost some weigh and some fat because it was the only thing that improved my facial appearance. Now trying to loose more fat from my face. I mew and do some chisell exercises at the same time, if you know what chisell is. Im 34 so i guess my age plays its role. All i can say so far is that mewing works, but the most important thing is to have a thin face with not much fat percentage in order to see results.

What's the benefit of chin tucks

[@Meritenn]

It’s amazing. I had a headache for two days. I tried this exercise and now it’s gone

[@liamsp544]

As soon as I did this I felt an immediate "good strech" feeling that really gave some good neck tension relief! Great point at the beginning calling out not flattening your shoulders fully to the wall - I have seen variations of this exercise before and never was told that, and just as you said found they felt like they strained my muscles.

[@02mb]

I love how real and unpolished that was. It's legit. Been doing chin tucks like this for a while now but never thought to associate and coordinate it with mealtime. What an amazingly simple but profound idea, and a great way to get your head back! This is truly an example of real multitasking, too. Do it while you swallow. Nice tip.

[@97mph]

I never noticed how recessive my chin was for like 20 years. I’m disgusted but I’m glad mewing fixed it. It’s crazy I used to have a round flat face & now I have defined facial features which I never had. Tucking my chin also made my chest & collarbones nice. It’s the little things. You basically wanna stand against an invisible wall 24/7

I practice Ballet and have struggled with getting my back to be straight and elongating the neck as my day job is mostly sitting at a desk for 8+hours a day. Long neck and straight back are not just for the visual aesthetic but help with balance and turns in Ballet. I just tried the McKenzie Chin tuck with the tongue posture and was struck by how similar it is to Ballet posture. Had no idea it was also important for all these other reasons, so definitely will be incorporating this into my daily routine. Also on a side note, my son had really bad crowding and underbite starting around 8 years old. He had orthodontic treatment including appliances and the extraction of teeth over the course of 10 years and now uses a retainer at night which he hates. All in all cost was around $10K out of pocket, insurance covered about 50% of the costs so not cheap. I always thought it was odd that I never needed any braces, had straight teeth while he needed extensive work though his father did have crooked teeth and an underbite, still I just wonder now how much could have been prevented with this information had I known 20 years ago. I've been trying to find ways to maintain the results of all that orthodontic treatment and I'm thrilled to find this information, so thank you for posting this Dr Mew!

[@imfine8224]

I asked poe (A.I) because its literally every single time so for anyone else with this issue... "The chin tuck exercise, where you gently pull your chin back while standing against a wall, can sometimes cause dizziness or discomfort for certain individuals. There are a few potential reasons this may be happening: 1. Neck Tension: If you have tight or strained neck muscles, the chin tuck movement can put additional pressure on them, leading to dizziness. This could be exacerbated by doing the exercise against a wall. 2. Postural Changes: The chin tuck position can alter your body's alignment and blood flow, which may trigger a dizzy sensation, especially if you hold the position for too long. 3. Vestibular Issues: For some people, the subtle head movement involved in the chin tuck can disrupt the inner ear's vestibular system, which controls balance and spatial orientation, leading to dizziness. I would suggest the following: - Start by doing the chin tuck exercise without the wall, focusing on a gentle, controlled movement. - Limit the hold time to 5-10 seconds to begin with, and gradually increase as you build tolerance. - Make sure you are breathing normally throughout the exercise. - If the dizziness persists, consider consulting a physical therapist or your healthcare provider. They can evaluate your specific condition and provide personalized recommendations. The key is to listen to your body and make adjustments as needed. Going slow and being mindful of any discomfort can help you find a way to perform the chin tuck exercise safely and effectively"
