Did you know we’re in the middle of a jaw epidemic?
50% of adults aren’t breathing correctly, and it all connects to an underdeveloped jaw.
In this episode of Grounded Wellness, Bethany sat down with Katrina Fahey, a craniofacial health coach and author of “Beauty is Bone Deep.” They explore the deep-seated issues and causes of our shrinking jaws.
From chronic pain and premature aging to digestive issues and even sleep and mood disorders, Katrina will show you why facial structure has a surprising domino effect on your health.
From kids to adults, this conversation will open your eyes to the far-reaching effects of jaw development and how proper facial structure massively improves your health. Explore the fascinating connection between an underdeveloped jaw and overall wellness.
As Katrina says, we were born to look good AND feel good.
Let’s dig in.
