Show Notes

Professional Grade Supplements for WiseAthletes

About the guest:

Gage Banks's expertise encompasses the complex relationships between airway function, hearing, vision, dental occlusion (how teeth align), and tongue positioning—all of which play crucial roles in regulating body tension and balance. By integrating this specialized knowledge with his foundation in orthopedic care, breathwork, and neurovisceral techniques, Gage helps patients understand how these systems influence their movement patterns and daily function. His comprehensive approach addresses various conditions, including TMJ dysfunction, sleep apnea, breathing disorders, and dental-related pain, working collaboratively with local dentists to provide coordinated care for optimal results.

"Just mobilizing joints, giving patients stretching and strengthening exercises, or having a patient participate in 'core stabilization' is not sufficient to address the complex interrelationship between the available mobility of the human system and the integration of automatic and volitional motor strategies.”

Episode summary:

Gage Banks came recommended to me as a voodoo healer, a bringer of solutions for inscrutable problems. I found Gage to be an intelligent problem solver who opened my eyes to the problems we create for ourselves by living a modern, habitually unbalanced life.

Our physiology is a magnificent thing. Billions of years of trial and error have led to a self repairing and adapting mechanism that is us. Our modern world has changed the game faster than our instinctive mechanisms can change so it is up to our conscious selves to know what can go wrong to take corrective action.
