The pure "soft tissue inflation" vs "soft tissue + nervous system" approach
I commented this on Ken Lever's (creator of Reviv) newest post, based on how I experience recovery/restructuring/soft tissue inflation/biomechaneering differently, and why it might be. 🔗 Full note here. In my case, every session creates whole-body improvements AND also releases a specific restriction. For example, when I released my lower back a few months ago, that area progressively became less tight over time. Each session built on the previous one, and my spine gradually straightened. But at the same time, I noticed subtle changes everywhere: - jaw releasing forward - slight bite changes - posture improvements - symmetry changes - different natural movement patterns My current hypothesis is that the process I do involves both soft tissue release and nervous system adaptation at the same time. By changing the soft tissue environment and exposing the body to more efficient movement patterns, the body immediately reorganises around the new pattern, improving overall biomechanics. (And also moving the bone instantly). However, if one only focuses on soft tissue release, the possibility of neurological update might be there for a long time before it gets assimilated through sheer tissue pressure. This is only an explanation I came up with recently, curious to hear other takes. Also, please share your experience: do you notice changes as a global unwinding process only, or do you feel specific areas releasing one after another? Or both? 🔗 Full note here

What kind of exercises do you do to achieve this?

@Santiago Figarola where can I learn the exercises you do?
⚠️Flat mouthguard guide⚠️
As requested, I added a more detailed mouthguard purchasing guide on the oral device course. If you have any questions, please put it in the comments. So I can make a FAQs next :) Why I recommend a mouthguard for anyone doing this process.

Is it important to bite down on the mouthguard for it to work? How deep in the grooves must your teeth be for the mouthguard to work?
New accelerator: Reviv × Biomechaneer toe spacers
More information and purchase link here. As many of you know, I've been in the barefoot and feet optimization community for years. Of course, at one point I tried toe spacers with no much results. Nowadays, with my structure supported from the teeth up with Reviv, I'm finally getting considerable results :) On one hand I've found this is one cheap, easy way to accelerate progress, as the toe spacers passively stretch the fascia and soft tissue of the feet. This has a system effect. On the other, I've experienced better alignment, stability and balance. My feet shape has improved. I can tell you it makes it easier to grow the glutes and stay stable when kettlebell swinging or squatting with one leg ;) And yes, like everything in this process it also helps with facial symmetry and attractiveness, posture, breathing and more. All info here :)

How hard is the material?
My doubts about the mouthguard
I know we all know the balloon theory, how they inflate the skull and all that, but does anyone actually know how it works? I mean, what is the body supposed to do inside for this process to happen?

https://www.egkbiomechanics.com/p/the-doorjam-theory-as-to-why-a-mouthguard According to Ken you don’t even need a mouthguard, you can bite on a pencil to achieve a similar effect.
Daytime?
Do you use anything when not wearing the Reviv in the daytime?
