In this episode of The Modern Vital Podcast, host Dr. Ben Reebs interviews Corinne Jarvis, the founder of BreatheWorks and a speech-language pathologist specializing in sleep apnea and orofacial myofunctional disorders. Corinne discusses her career journey and how she became interested in the musculoskeletal approach to improve overall function, including speech, cognition, digestion, and breathing. She explains the concept of oral facial myology, which focuses on the study of oral muscle function and its impact on the shape and maturation of bones. Corinne emphasizes the importance of environmental factors such as allergens and inflammation in sleep apnea and airway dysfunction.

Corinne highlights the underdiagnosis and misdiagnosis of sleep apnea, especially in children, where symptoms may be mistaken for asthma or chronic allergies. She stresses the significance of recognizing signs and symptoms such as mouth breathing, snoring, digestion issues, and difficulty focusing. Corinne shares her experience in treating patients and how addressing environmental factors, such as allergens or food intolerances, can lead to significant improvements in muscle function and overall body posture. She also explains the relationship between the tongue and the diaphragm and the importance of proper breathing patterns in calming the nervous system.

Regarding the impact of environmental exposure, Corinne acknowledges that our modern environment filled with pesticides, pollutants, and electromagnetic fields is playing a fundamental role in compromising our body's ability to tolerate and function optimally. She mentions the challenges of creating a non-toxic environment but highlights the importance of educating oneself about optimal tongue posture, keeping the tongue lightly suctioned to the roof of the mouth, breathing through the nose, and maintaining good overall body posture. Corinne suggests seeking therapy to address these issues, as speech therapy benefits often cover such treatments, which can significantly improve breathing and overall well-being.

Shaun and Bo sat down to talk all things Trigger Points.
It's a huge topic and not one that can be summarised easily. There are however a number of key insights that all therapists need to have to be able to better understand what those little lumps actually represent AND what we can do to help manage them.
Enjoy!!

Cupping Therapy (Myofascial Cupping, Decompression Therapy, etc) is so often misunderstood.
The conversation between Shaun Brewster and Bodine Ledden from ACE, dives deep into the science behind this modality, the mechanisms at play and help clinicians better understand why this technique achieves what it does.
We promise that these 24 minutes will expand your understanding of Cupping Therapy!

6 Tips To Keep Your Body & Mind Healthy With RJO

1. HYDRATE | Before, During & After Tips

Before Training: Mornings 1 L water & 30-60’ b4 workout 1/2-1L minimum (pee test = The darker it is yellow is your dehydration level basically)

*During Training: Smaller amounts more often… best. Super long or hard have fruit with lots of water in it but lower fiber.. oranges, mandarins, bananas, etc.

*After Training: 5-10’ 1/2L dep. on sweat with salt!

2. REFUEL | Post Workout Nutrition

FANTASTIC 4 = ENERGY + MUSCLE + HYDRATION + IMMUNE

KEYS: 30’ WINDOW Stage 1 + 60-120’ window Stage 2

STAGE 1 = 30’ WINDOW after training
Glycogen Stores ("energy reserves") (1.2g/kg of bodyweight of carbs OR carb/protein mix)

*RECOVERY SHAKE EXAMPLE + GUT HEALTH PREP = PRE/PROBIOTICS (greek yogurt higher protein/low fat versions best, miso, kimchi, and kefir) Pre (non = Garlic/banana/Leeks/etc

STAGE 2 = 60-120’ window after training
Protein, Protein Helpers, Fats (Omegas, etc), Antioxidants, Slow Carbs

EXAMPLE:

RECOVERY BOWL = FISH/POULTRY/RED MEAT (Bacon even ok) + FAT (nuts/seeds on salad… avocado.. coconut, hemp seed or walnut oil) + VEGGIES (Dark green Spinach/Kale/Collards etc but also bright colors more color the more vitamins/antioxidants) + SLOW CARBS (20% is probably more than enough here) (Legumes like lentils, black beans.. Quinoa, rolled oats, whole-grain pumpernickel bread, Buckwheat, pearled barley and whole-wheat bread/tortillas for wrap/sandwich)

HELPFUL TIPS:

*Drink water/liquids up to 20’ before meals and 30-60’ after or you will not digest everything from you food

*Fat Burners:
A Shot of pure lemon juice after meal will help digestion and fat loss.
Clove of garlic
Cayenne Peppers
Cinnamon

*Don’t Eat close to bedtime or you will be processing food during sleep...not have consistent sleep quality which will defeat the nutrition you just gave yourself!
