WPP#24 The Quiet Epidemic

Mouth breathing isn’t a habit—it’s a warning sign.In this episode, Dr. Vic Manzo uncovers the hidden neurological and structural issues behind mouth breathing, weak tongue posture, snoring, and poor sleep in children. Learn why these signs point to deeper nervous system stress, how birth trauma and tongue ties play a role, and why the brain will choose mouth breathing as a survival strategy.Dr. Manzo breaks down the neurological cascade linking airway dysfunction to sleep problems, ADHD-like symptoms, sensory processing issues, and immune challenges—and explains how addressing the nervous system can shift kids out of fight-or-flight and into growth mode.If you’re a parent, this episode will change how you see breathing, sleep, and childhood development.Follow us for more:IG: @WellnessPathChiroFB: @WellnessPathChiroYT: @WellnessPathChiroLive in the Knoxville/Maryville/Morristown Area:If you are looking for support for your child and want them to be evaluated, you can:Text us at 865-214-7438Send us a request online: www.WellnessPathChiro.com Hosted on Acast.
