Functioning In The Flint Hills

BREATHING IS A FUNCTION

Expanding the upper jaw and the palate alone is not going to resolve nor correct dysfunction. Breathing is a function, and if it’s dysfunctional, then correct it by addressing the root causes and undergo functional breathing retraining.

If the jaw is narrow and the palate is high, depending on each individual case, expansion can widen them to create structural improvements of the sizes of the jaws and the nasal cavities. However, even though there would be more space for the to sit up in the mouth, and more space in the nose for breathing, it would not mean that they would automatically happen.

Healthy functional breathing does not mean only nose breathing. It also means using the diaphragm correctly, inhaling and exhaling the optimal amount of air, not over-breathing, and being functionally regulated by the nervous system.

There are various factors that may cause breathing dysfunctions, including (but not limited to):
- genetic predisposition
- gestational conditions
- nutrition
- the environment
- allergies
- structural underdevelopment and restrictions

Hence, only focusing on the structure alone is insufficient to treat breathing dysfunctions.

Breathing is not as simple as it sounds. It does take a considerable amount of time and a team of skilled health professionals to manage a breathing dysfunction.

Ahhhh! I’m so stoked! John Mew and Mike Mew,…”Mewing” made it to the Morning Show on NBC today in the states. I think they need to have the originals on now, to actually explain it to the world in a scientific manner.🙌🏼

Love you, Dr. Bobby Ghaheri MD! Keep ‘em coming, you’re spreading the word and getting the attention so desperately needed!🙏
