    I have dealt with severe cervical, occipital and shoulde tension most of my adult life (I’m 34) and have tried EVERYYHING to address it. I also have breathing issues and difficulties projecting my voice.
    Recently I noticed my tongue looked different from my fiance and learned about tongue tie. It makes sense that it’s never been addressed as a child because I was not breastfed. I have never heard of this but I failed both tests miserably! I’m looking into being formally evaluated and getting myofascial therapy and a frenectomy and am hoping it brings me some relief.
    What I cannot believe is that with all the specialists/dentists I’ve seen over the years, no one thought to evaluate this!

    I got 3-2 and can barely squeeze in one finger on the last. This has been really enlightening to understand that this is the potential culprit for some of my voice issues amongst other things

    I can fit 4 fingers with my mouth open all the way. Then with my tongue behind my teeth it's a little less than 2, then with the suction/click, I have to force my mouth to be able to open less than 1 finger width. It's usually teeth clenched when I do that. I already have my tongue tie release scheduled though

    About 2 fingers baseline, barely 1 posterior. Definitely talking to my doctor ASAP as I've had chronic jaw and neck pain for years that I've attributed to stress.

    Im tongue tied, and now I think it has a lot to do with how I sound. There's really naslly speech, then there's how I sound. They sound almost the same, but my voice sounds more like Im holding my tongue even tho I can pronounce any word. I don't have any nasal issues of any kind. I didn't pass this test.

    • @OpusMyo
      @OpusMyo  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Yes, that can happen! Many tongue tied singers do not have speech issues or pronunciation issues, but they do feel tension or pain and also the sound or tone quality can sound forced or tight!

    I have had a stuttering-like condition my whole life. It sn't exactly stuttering as much as it is mumbling through sentences unintelligible. It isexacerbated when I am nervous, and I also tend to to take a lot of sporadic breaths while talking.
    I dd this test and it was 3,2,1 for the spaces between the jaws.
    Could the tongue tie explain these conditions?

    I failed the 3rd exercise. 😭 I have been feeling discomfort in the jaw and neck area lately. I also noticed how I can't seem to tame my tongue when I practice singing. Does that mean, I possibly am tongue tie??? 😭😭😭

    • @OpusMyo
      @OpusMyo  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes the chances are very high! Id seek a formal diagnosis! (thats probably why you have so much tongue issues- its not the technique!)

    Can you get your tongue tie released if there is a big vein in it?

    • @OpusMyo
      @OpusMyo  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Yes, that is common and easily avoided. Surgeons can gently move either side of the vein without cutting it. It may make the process slower, adding maybe 5-10 mins, but shouldn't change the quality of the release.

    I want to sing well, and I have been practicing for 5 years. However, I had a tongue-tie, which I had removed 2 years ago because it was causing speech issues. More importantly, my voice has been very dry, raspy, and harsh. Despite improving in singing, my voice hasn't improved. Even 2 years after the tongue-tie removal, my voice is still harsh and dry. I'm begging you, please help me. Singing well is my life's goal, and if this doesn't happen, my life will feel ruined.

      Keep up those exercises I gave you for 2-3 weeks and let me know how it goes! Make sure to watch yourself in the mirror as thats the fastest and the easiest way to change that habit!

      @@OpusMyo I am practicing what you suggested. What I feel is that some of my vowels, specifically 'A' and 'E,' feel tense. Also, when other people speak, their words seem to have a similar tone and sound soft and smooth. But when I speak, some of my words feel strained and harsh, and all words should sound of the same type, but they do not. Why is this happening? Could it be due to tongue tension? But My tongue doesn't go back still i am facing this,,It's been more than two years since my tongue tie release, yet I’m still facing this issue. Pls help me

    • @OpusMyo
      @OpusMyo  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes tongue ties are genetic so he chances are high. Of course, not a guarantee but definitely suspicious. I’d watch and see if he has other symptoms: mouth breathing, nasal congestion, chronic ear infections, poor sleep, food, pickiness
