Take a moment to look in the mirror. Do you have uneven ears or a crooked nose? Is one eye more open than the other? Does your jaw click when you open and close it? Is one shoulder higher than the other? Are your eyebrows uneven? Are your cheekbones even?.Is your face symmetrical? Does your jaw jut to one side or the other? Open and close your jaw in front of the mirror….what appears uneven? Asymmetry of the face can reveal where you might want to loosen fascia.
