The extrapolation of these principles to the possibility of significantly modifying maxillary projection through various techniques is not supported by robust clinical evidence in humans.
Therefore, this theory should be considered a speculative biomechanical hypothesis, useful as a conceptual framework for understanding the interaction between function and structure.
Therefore, this theory should be considered a speculative biomechanical hypothesis, useful as a conceptual framework for understanding the interaction between function and structure.
I´ve been working on this theory to ensure quality and results, there is no clinical evidence in humans, but this should work by biomechanical rules, I invite you to try this by yourself and tell me about your results.

What is the Fascia?
Fasciae are "passive structures that transmit mechanical tension generated by muscular activities or external forces throughout the body."
For instance, if one area of the fascia becomes tighter, it may pull on opposing muscles in the body, producing passive mechanical tension that could potentially lead to asymmetries and imbalances throughout the body and, in some cases, alter the position of a bone.
This is why...
How Fascia has shaped modern bodies
Sedentarism and prolonged postures that our bodies are not designed for can generate different kinds of tension throughout the body, shaping it into less aesthetically pleasing forms and causing uncomfortable passive pain that we often become accustomed to.
How to fix your Fascia
The human body functions as an integrated system where the nervous system, muscles, and fascia work together to adapt to movement patterns and habits. Through physical training, improved motor control, and exposure to appropriate loads, it is possible to modify posture, function, and the distribution of forces in the body. Within this framework, manual therapies can influence the neuromusculoskeletal system, reducing pain and improving mobility through changes in muscle tone and the nervous system's perception.
How your Fascia could lead to CCW rotation
This works through layered connections involving the cranium, sutures, muscles of mastication, and cervical/cranial fascial continuity. Once you correct this, as a consequence, your maxilla may become wider and its position may shift forward. This would be from a tension transmission system that modulates craniocervical posture and orofacial function, which can indirectly influence the mechanical stimuli that guide craniofacial growth in early stages like teenage.
I recommend first analyzing your whole body and fascial system by asking yourself: “What might be influencing the position of my maxilla posteriorly?” You may notice various postural issues, such as duck feet, among others. From there, you could begin addressing these patterns by working on the underlying contributing factors.
One example of what I am talking about is in this video:
Hope this helps you guys. I’ll be looking forward to making more content about this subject and answering your questions.
