With today being National Spine Day, I figure seeing that the spine has everything to do with communicated alignment, I'd start at the bottom.
----------
Some are pretty looking and some are not so pretty but they all have the same job. What is this job? And what are we talking about? ----------
To some it's called the Big Toe. To others, it's Mr. Hallux. It helps with balance and propulsion.
----------
It is the last bone that leaves the floor when in gait/walking. Without it our body fixes and adapts itself in order for us to have some kind pain-free movement.
----------
Some people have had toes surgically removed and have learned to walk "normally" with great function. This is how resilient our brain and bodies can be. But others lose some balance, strength, and ability to propulse in activity...taking into consideration that they are barefoot.
----------
When wearing appropriate shoes with tailor-made inserts and toe fillers, they act as a whole unit and provide the brain the stimulus it needs to function normally. If this doesn't take place, the body will deviate the ankle left or right (invert or evert) to accommodate for our big toe, creating more possible compensation up the body (tib post, adductors, lower back and possibly into shoulders).
----------
To summarize: .
It's a no go when there's no big toe...doesn't mean you can't function still but just look into structures creating more discomfort/pain.

There's that Sphenoid again...
.
The movement of these bones are significant to the individual that breathes properly, how they take care of their skull, and how well they feed it (rest, less tight headwear on their head, etc.)
----------
With all the cranial bones listed in the picture, taking into consideration that you are looking at a point of view from the top of the head, that we're missing the temporal bone, which the Sphenoid attaches to as well.
----------
Any jostling to these bones can alter function of your body, flow of fluid (CSF - cerebral spinal fluid, blood, and lymph), posture alignment, or even how you sleep.
----------
Just giving you a heads up!

First off, I know, what the heck is a Sphenoid and where is it?
---
The beautiful butterfly of all the cranial bones in your head. It's attached to all the cranial bones, which makes it an important bone if damaged or traumatized. Located behind the eyes, you can imagine any blow to the temples can affect vision, neck control, and much more.
---
They say it takes 70 years for the cranial bones to fuse...70! That means that even though you don't feel it, it's constantly moving as you breathe. We're not even mentioning, if you get hit in the head softly or with hard force, this movement that's supposed to happen constantly can offset other bones in the head and ripple down the body.
---
When trauma is caused to the Sphenoid, a cascading reaction of instability occurs.
. 🔎For example:
⚠️ Have you ever had bad nights of sleep? Tossing and turning, trying to find a comfortable position?
⚠️ Feeling imbalanced between left and right foot when walking
⚠️ Ringing in the ear
⚠️ Vision issues
---
Take good care of yourself and your head
