- 106 - Episode 99 ft. Dr. Neel Bulchandani, DC
In today's episode, Brittny chats with Dr. Neel Bulchandani, DC, a holistic chiropractor, bodyworker, movement teacher, podcaster, and philosopher. He utilizes systems thinking in a field he developed called Integrative Airway & Feeding Chiropractic. He launched an intuitive movement practice in 2017 called Movintuit. He began teaching other bodyworkers and birth workers his holistic approach to aiding in the freeing of tethered oral tissues in 2021, and in 2022, he launched a technique called Stomatognathic Oscillatory Fascial Touch Technique (S.o.f.t. Technique). He's often a go-to provider for pre- and post-op bodywork for patients undergoing frenectomies and frenuloplasties. He has helped many moms breastfeed with more ease, less pain, and more success by utilizing his knowledge of freeing tension associated with oral ties. Dr. Neel also sees many children and adults who suffer from issues related to tethered oral tissues: feeding, airway, digestion, sleep, and TMJ issues.
In addition to his patient care, Dr. Neel offers virtual healing map sessions as well as consults for practices and teams. He has begun helping practices establish a solid infrastructure for guided releases, or for those more involved in palate expansion and/or jaw surgeries, he offers guidance on how to implement a broad range of bodywork modalities and advises on syntax and appropriateness of the overall gameplan. He also has recently launched a podcast on the topic of embodied embryology called Embryoloji.

In today's episode, Brittny chats with her colleague, Annmarie DeMarco OTR/L. This is an episode you do NOT want to miss! So many nuggets of valuable information. Annmarie shares with us her specialty which is retained primitive reflexes. Annmarie and Brittny discuss the crossover they see between their client population and how working collaboratively can truly transform their clients lives. Annmarie shares her own research she has done with her own clients suspecting that almost 80% of the children in her clinic also have an underlying airway/sleep issue or is suspected to have an airway/sleep issue. Retained primitive reflexes are not just seen in children. They can also present in adults. Traumatic live events or illnesses can also cause primitive reflexes to become unintegrated throughout the lifespan.

**Multiple courses availableThu, 28 Jul 2022 - 71 - Episode 71 ft. Dr. Brett Christensen, DDS, MS
Why is it hard for most orthodontists to accept starting treatment as early as 3 or 4 years old? In today's episode we have the brilliant orthodontist, Dr. Brett Christensen to give us some insight on this matter.
Dr. Brett Christensen has been treating Sleep Disorder Breathing since becoming an orthodontist in 1999. For children, being trained in bio-progressive orthodontics and dentofacial orthopedics, he has been able to treat breathing disorders through growth and development. It is a matter of knowing what is causing the airway obstruction. Having the right tools is crucial in diagnosing and treatment planning for the patient. Dr. Christensen has invested in the most advanced CT scan (CBCT) machine in the industry and the Eccovision Pharyngometer and Rhinometer use sonar (sound waves) to map the area of the nasal airway and throat (oropharynx) to pinpoint the area of constriction or obstruction of the airway. These tools help determine with more accuracy the effects of maxillary expansion on the nasal airway and oral volume.Website:

Wed, 15 Apr 2020 - 7 - Episode 6 ft. Dr. Liz Turner, DMD
Brittny discusses with Liz Turner, DMD the depth of how attached the mouth and body are. Dr. Turner reveals it wasn't until the birth of her son a few years ago that her world changed. He was born tongue tied and it was impacting his feeding. Since she wasn't having pain and her son was gaining weight, she was told... "It's just a mild tie, it will stretch, it's no big deal." A mom knows her baby, and after five weeks she was able to get his lip and tongue tie treated with a laser (by a dentist). Three days later her father-in-law, with untreated sleep apnea and tongue-tie, had a heart attack. He was in a medically induced coma for six days. Dr. Turner realized that dentists are not just "teeth doctors," but really have incredible insight into how healthy someone is (or has the potential to be!). Dr. Turner believes, as dentists, she and her colleagues have the responsibility to screen their patients for airway dysfunction.
