TONGUE TIE COMPENSATIONS: FASCIAL RESTRICTIONS, TENSION AND PAIN Written By: Dr. Ankita Shah, 11 September 2023

WHAT IS FASCIA?

Fascia is a connective tissue more like a spider web that provides our body a continuous 3-dimensional matrix of structural support surrounding our muscles, bones, nerves and even the internal organs. Forward head posture, cervical neck and shoulder tension, bruxism (teeth grinding/ clenching), jaw discomfort are all compensations of the fascial tissue in the tongue tie.
