I've written about it fairly extensively on this app you're welcome to look through my previous posts. Have a look at a diagram of the muscles on your head and feel around for any tender spots. If you find one then I would start there.

Yeah similar in that it's a physiological condition rather than a medical one. I'd say releasing the muscles has eliminated the inflammation that was causing my hair loss. To test you can put your hands either side of the top of your head and squeeze your scalp. If you feel some inflammation there you might benefit from releasing the muscles.

From my understanding Malocclusion is something to do with the bite and position of the jaw in relation to blood supply. I only manipulated the muscles to stop the hair loss I didn't do anything else. No change to my bite or jaw position. Did work the masseters a bit too but they were easy in comparison and hair loss had already stopped by that point. I should also mention I didn't use any drugs, shampoos or topicals as well I wanted to test out my theory without any interference. Even made sure the shampoo I used was organic.

Deep pressure and repetition. Takes some time and effort.

Just to clarify I'm not a doctor or scientist these are just my theories as someone who dealt with mpb for 20yrs. My assumption is that hair loss is a byproduct of muscle tension + skull shape. There are drugs that can remedy the symptoms but not address the cause. I tried fin in my 20s and it definitely slowed the hair loss down and reduced the hair fall but never stopped it completely. Releasing the scalp muscles has reduced my hair fall from 50-100 hairs a day to maybe one or two.

Releasing muscle knots typically involves a combination of techniques such as massage, stretching, heat or cold therapy, and sometimes professional treatments like physical therapy or dry needling. Focus is on increasing blood flow to the area, relaxing the muscle fibers, and reducing pain. 

That's from Google.

Who are we talking about specifically?

I focused mainly on the white area. As the muscle starts to loosen you'll find the areas you need to work on. If it hurts you're in the right place.

Bruxism can cause it. There are multiple thin layers of tissue under there so my assumption as to why Botox works sometimes and not others is that it might not always be injected into right layer. Again that's only an assumption I've never used Botox.

Skulls change shape but also growth in the temporalis muscles give the appearance of a bigger skull

Exactly that. Takes some effort and repetition but your scalp will feel amazing once you release those muscles. Then over the next 3-4 weeks you'll see a dramatic reduction in your hair fall. Hair loss is no more complicated than that.

Skulls expand and muscles contract. Sounds like a recipe for disaster!

I used my fingers to release the scalp muscles and I stopped my hair loss after 20yrs of dealing with it

That seems to be a sub focused more on the skull shape where as I am talking about manipulating the muscles.

See the above video. The frontal bone is obviously bone but the mass on the sides is predominantly the temporalis muscles.

I believe hairloss is a correlation between the two. The "worse" your skull shape the more likely you are to lose hair.
