Mr Wollas youtube link:
He was once asymmetrical and now he Isn't so it seems rather legit. But i wanna hear your thoughts.
Here is a transcript overview from the youtube summarizer from one of the videos for simplification.

This video explains that human bodies are naturally asymmetrical due to organ placement and muscle imbalances, which can be exacerbated by poor posture and lifestyle (0:11). The right hemidiaphragm is larger and stronger, shifting the body's center of gravity slightly to the right (2:10).

This leads to a natural adaptation called the Left Anterior Interior Chain (AIC) pattern, where the pelvis rotates forward and to the right, causing an anterior pelvic tilt (4:15). If the Left AIC pattern is over-activated, it can lead to a maladaptation called the Right Temporomandibular Cervical Chain (TMCC) pattern (7:15). This involves the lumbar spine bending to the left and the upper back orienting to the right, affecting the neck and leading to cranial bone adaptations, especially in the sphenoid bone (8:20).

Sphenoid bone issues can cause facial asymmetry, like one eye or cheekbone appearing lower or higher (11:06). Compromised sphenoid bone positioning can also lead to temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMJD), affecting jaw movement and causing pain and muscle imbalances (12:20). The video details exercises to address TMJD, focusing on releasing tension in the temporal mandibular joint and surrounding muscles like the masseter, pterygoid, and temporalis (25:12).

It also covers exercises for neck muscles like the sternocleidomastoid, scalene, and upper trapezius to improve overall facial symmetry and balance (47:32). The creator emphasizes that addressing asymmetry requires a holistic approach, as all parts of the body are interconnected (56:01).


1. Diaphragmatic Breathing (21:05): Goal: To balance the pull on the lumbar spine by activating the left hemidiaphragm more, reversing pelvic tilt and reducing the triggering of the Left AIC and Right TMCC patterns. Method: Utilize diaphragmatic breathing to exert a more balanced pull. While considered a small step, it's foundational. 2. TMJ Exercises (Craniosacral Therapy & Myofascial Releases) (25:12): Assessment (25:38): Slowly open your mouth wide. Look for pain, tension, struggle, or popping sounds. Try fitting an apple or object in one side of your mouth to assess tension. Warm-up (27:12): Press down on your TMJ (located in the middle point of your ears) and open your mouth 5 times. It may be uncomfortable but is normal.

TMJ Release with Tongue on Palate (28:20): Method for Left TMJ issue: Apply pressure on the jaw (e.g., with thumb) and push downwards while opening your mouth. Keep your tongue on your upper palate. Hold for 10 seconds, repeat 5 times. Method for Right TMJ issue: Apply pressure on the jaw and push upwards while opening your mouth. Keep your tongue on your upper palate. Hold for 10 seconds, repeat 5 times.

Sets/Reps: Start with 3 sets, gradually increase to 4-5 sets as the TMJ strengthens (32:37). TMJ Release Below Earlobes (33:22): Method: Place your finger in the small depression just below your earlobes and behind the occiput. As you open your mouth, you'll feel something protuding; press that point.

Pull the joint forward while opening your mouth. Hold for 10 seconds. Benefits: Releases tension from muscles and the TMJ, minor activation of the pterygoid muscle (35:00). Essential for improving facial symmetry by restoring temporal bone alignment (35:50). 3. Muscle Balancing & Neuromuscular Re-education (36:40): Masseter Muscle Releases (37:15): Method: Gently massage the masseter muscles (located in the cheek area, felt when chewing) with circular movements. Knuckle Slides (38:20): With knuckles, slide down the masseter area (straight down, or diagonally) 5-10 times, slowly.

Do 4 sets of 5 repetitions (39:05). Do in both sides, or more on the affected side (38:38). Benefits: Releases tension, prevents fatigue, helps avoid TMJ dysfunction (39:00). Pterygoid Muscle Activation (Lateral Movement) (42:08): Method: Apply gentle isometric pressure on your jaw and try to slide your jaw side-to-side. Keep your tongue on your palate (43:53). Do 5 times per side (44:24). Variation: Place a pen in your mouth and slide it side-to-side with your jaw (45:00). Benefits: Reactivates the pterygoid muscle, solves jaw swinging issues (43:00). Temporalis Muscle Releases (45:48): Method: Gently massage the temporalis muscles (on the sides of the head above the ears) with circular movements.

With Jaw Movement (46:42): Open and close your mouth while massaging for increased difficulty. Benefits: Restores muscle function, alleviates pain from tight masseters (41:00). 4. Neck Muscle Exercises (47:32): Sternocleidomastoid (SCM) Muscle (47:50): Method 1 (49:07): Open your mouth wide and tilt your head upwards. Repeat 5 times, 4 sets daily. Do not overactivate (50:02). Method 2 (50:25): Gently bend your neck to one side until you reach the natural end point.

With the hand on the same side, pull your head further (50:47). Hold for 10-20 seconds (beginner: 10s, intermediate: 15s, advanced: 20s) (50:57). Focus on the tight side, but also do on the other side to prevent further asymmetry (51:19). Benefits: Releases tightness in the SCM, which can worsen facial symmetry (48:16). Scalene Muscle (52:05): Method: Bend your head towards your armpit gently ("armpit smeller" exercise) (52:31).

With the hand on the same side, push your head further towards the armpit (52:58). Hold for 10-20 seconds (53:23). Benefits: Releases tension in the scalene muscles. Upper Trapezius (54:02): Method 1 (SCM/Upper Trapezius combined): Tilt your head up and pull it downwards with your hand (54:26). Hold for 10-15 seconds. Method 2 (Scalene/SCM combined): Place your armpit to your head, pull your head down, and tilt it (55:09). Hold for 10-15 seconds. Benefits: Activates and releases tension in the upper trapezius, scalene, and SCM. The video stresses that these issues are interconnected, and a holistic approach is necessary to fix asymmetry (56:01)
