Holistic Chiropractor
Dr Neel Bulchandani
Dr. Neel Bulchandani’s Floor Four — How to Free Floor of Mouth Tension By Working with Four Key Areas in the Body
Dr. Neel Bulchandani is an intra- and inter-disciplinary healer specializing in complex problems related to sleep, airway, feeding, and mobility. He uses systems thinking and a kaleidoscopic approach (nod to Thomas Edison) in order to help all ages -- babies to adults. He began as a chiropractor 17 years ago, and then 9 years ago, when his daughter was born with a tongue tie, he went down the rabbit hole of tethered oral tissues and airway/feeding
centered health. Already curious and delving into fascia and visceral work (organs), Neel dove even deeper in order to help figure out the surrounding issues related to his daughter's feeding issues.
He developed a Floor of the Mouth Protocol, and has online courses for both practitioners and patients where he aids them in freeing tongue and mouth tension. He has created an Airway Map comprised of 70 areas in the body that are often restricted when there are issues with the mouth, like tongue tie, narrow palates, etc, and has distilled this map into 4 main areas of the body. With the Floor Four, his goal is to make it easier for practitioners and patients to access healing and find relief from tension and nervous system stress. He interviews healers on his podcast, called Compromised to Alchemized.
He's married to Dawn, and dad to 3 (Serenity, Cypress, and Zephyr). He does in-person and virtual appointments, and is based in Santa Barbara. He also sees patients in Agoura Hills, Woodland Hills, Los Angeles, and the Bay Area.
