see your Chiropractic....

When you say ‘Ahh’ your uvula should stay in the middle of the throat.

If it deviates to one side, then your vagus nerve could have low tone on one side.

Increasing your vagal tone activates the parasympathetic nervous system, and having higher vagal tone means that your body can relax faster after stress.

Other symptoms of low vagal tone could be:
• Dizziness
• Vertigo
• Swallowing difficulties
• Hearing is off
• Migraines
• Clicking popping in the neck
• Neck stiffness
• Vision issues.

Then look in the mirror and say ‘Ah’.

Why would the Uvula deviate?

The Vagus nerve is a critical cranial nerve that provides movement functions for the muscles in the neck responsible for swallowing and speech.

If the levati veli palatini muscle is not elevating the uvula on one side. It means it has less vagus tone on the left side.

So what to do? We need to start looking for the cause. In severe cases vagus nerve dysfunction can be due to a lesion in the nerve.

The causes can be upper cervical instability related to:

1) Forward head posture can compress the vagus nerve, blocking nerve impulses to one side.
2) If you have postural rotation of the C2 then the nerve can be blocked on one side.
3) Stretching or compressing the nerve through traumatic injury.

Ancient techniques used chanting to activate this important nerve.

"Om” is the simplest and arguably the most profound and powerful mantra, according to Hindu mythology.

How to activate the vagus nerve with chanting 'Om''

• The first syllable is A, pronounced as a prolonged "awe." The sound starts at the back of your throat and you stretch it out. You will start feeling your solar plexus and chest vibrating.
• The second syllable is U, pronounced as a prolonged "oo," with the sound gradually rolling forward along your upper palate. You'll feel your throat vibrate.
• The third syllable is M, pronounced as a prolonged "mmmm" with your front teeth gently touching. You will now start to feel the top of your mouth vibrate.

Did you notice movement in the uvula with this exercise?
