ssss1 Neutral position for the registered dental hygienist.

How a dental practitioner stands, walks, and uses their feet can lock patterns into the feet, ankles, knees, and hips. The key is movement – this is the goal of the practitioner. We must keep the body in motion as much as we can during our daily dental work. The neutral position is key and encompasses a deeper journey for the practitioner, in that the sides of the body are released (ssss1), thus freeing the “stuck ribs” that ultimately shorten the body, resulting in the ribcage and head becoming “weighed down” on the lower body. The abdominal muscles must be strong, as they play such an important role in connection to the health of the back and spine. Strong gluteal muscles are important as well to help the individual attain this personal neutral position.
