In this episode of ASAP Pathway: The Podcast, Dr. Stacy Becker welcomes airway-focused physical therapist Dr. Jenny Hobson for an eye-opening discussion about the powerful relationship between posture, breathing, TMJ, craniofacial development, and airway health. Dr. Hobson shares her unique journey training under legendary TMJ expert Dr. Mariano Rocabado and explains why successful airway treatment often requires much more than orthodontics, surgery, or oral appliances alone. Together they explore how mouth breathing, forward head posture, dysfunctional swallowing, poor body mechanics, and altered breathing patterns can influence everything from chronic pain and TMJ disorders to sleep quality and long-term health. Topics include: Why dentists and physical therapists need to collaborate How posture changes occlusion and jaw function Why some patients still can't breathe through their nose after surgery The role of breathing retraining and functional rehabilitation Mouth breathing, CO₂ tolerance, and Buteyko breathing Why tongue posture and negative pressure matter Pediatric airway development and parent involvement The importance of gait, movement, diaphragm function, and whole-body alignment Practical strategies clinicians can immediately apply with patients If you've ever wondered why some patients continue to struggle despite excellent dental treatment or why airway medicine requires a whole-body approach—this episode is a must-listen.
