Doc, props on the high quality videos. How about something on pelvic floor? I've had bad back problems for a while and don't sit as long as I used to. I'm guessing those muscles weakened since my perineum region/sitting bones feels sore and tender when I do sit for a bit (something that I didn't feel before when my back was in decent shape). I'm not quite sure how to approach this as I'm a guy and don't know how I'd try explaining this at a spa when getting a massage. Thanks in advance.

I've subscribed. A local PT recommended the chin tuck and, you're right, it doesn't work. How do I get ahold of the pdf mentioned?

hi! I just wanted to leave a comment to let you know that your advices completely fixed my hunched posture! I was beginning to really feel desperate about it. I have a scoliosis and I thought that would be a huge obstacle but not at all! I first tried your exercises against the wall but what really healed me was sleeping on the back with a flat pillow placed under my shoulders and head. What a monstrous first night. I hated it but I forced myself and it became easier then natural. Now my body truly knows what stranding straight means and I can easily correct my posture during the day if I catch myself being a bit hunched. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!

Amazing, thanks for sharing!

Something that I’d highly highly highly recommend is that if you have a hard time doing chin tucks is to do it when you drive. Super easy to hold your self accountable and I go to work/school 6/7 days of the week and I’ve used all the time I drive to get a good stretch and it’s helped so much

Hi, Dr. Saunders, your mobility pre-Fwd head postures helped finally do away with my neck crepitus. Thank you so much for that. Can you please make a video on how to get rid of Ankle and Knee crepitus? My ankles and knees are constantly cracking and popping (w/o pain or numbness) whenever I squat or get up from bed. Thanks. I am super worried this is an upcoming sign of a future problem. I'm 52 years old, by the way and 5 feet 9 inches tall, 180 lbs in weight. Please? I'd be grateful if you could. Thanks.

Some doctors frown upon this "neck lateral flexion" you are teaching in the video at 1:40, because this movement pinches the lower cervical vertebras in an unnatural physiology. According to them, it can cause serious damage to C4 up to C7 disks in the long run, because the natural movement of the lower cervical is downward. They would advise modifying the "Lateral Flexion" to a "Lateral Downward Flexion". What's your view on that? I'm doing this everyday and I'm seriously concerned about the long-term effect of this stretching.

@drjonsaunders

Ай бұрын

I would disagree with that...the movement should be focused on "moving your ear towards the ceiling" rather than a lateral flexion movement of the whole neck. As far as flexion of the neck with lateral flexion, that would place more stress on the cervical discs. Best wishes.

@EddyTheLion

Ай бұрын

Sir I am a 20 year old boy. Sir I have forward head posture from past 6-7 years. Although I don't have any pain but it looks ugly. Sir is it possible to fix it? How much time will it take approximately like 6-9 months or more? I am ready to do anything to fix it for any amount of time. I am from small city of Bihar India so can you tell me which doctor should I go to fix it ? Like physiotherapist or chiropractor or posture fix experts etc. Because i don't know which doctor deals with it.
