The key to Frenzel lies in the precise control of your throat and oral cavity muscles. 
If you still don't understand where your glottis and soft palate are, how can you train muscles you can't even locate? 

Let us show you the simplest way to find them!

This video teaches you, in a very simple and intuitive way, three control exercises: closing the glottis, controlling the soft palate, and pushing air with your oral cavity and throat.

When you can consciously perform these three actions, you won't need to collect seven Dragon Balls – we guarantee you'll be able to summon the Frenzel Master anytime, anywhere!

Why, during equalization (whether scuba diving or freediving), does one ear pop easily while the other feels blocked and takes a long time to equalize?

This can happen for two reasons:

Physiological Structure: 
You may have naturally asymmetrical Eustachian tubes (one wider than the other) and insufficient equalization force, resulting in only one ear clearing easily.

Inflammation or Mucus Blockage: 
We recommend avoiding dairy products and tobacco before diving, as these can increase mucus production in the respiratory tract. Proper equalization techniques can significantly improve issues caused by both of these factors.

For those who only know the Valsalva maneuver, make sure both of the following are correct:

❶ Your lungs are completely full of air before you attempt Valsalva. 
❷ During Valsalva, your diaphragm should be pushing forcefully, while all other muscles remain relaxed. You can gently release the hand pinching your nose to confirm that air is flowing smoothly and consistently from your nostrils.

For those who use the Frenzel technique, use the following two checks to confirm the completeness of your technique:

❶ During Frenzel, is your throat or oral cavity filled with air? 
❷ During Frenzel, is the compression force in your oral cavity or throat sufficient?

You can pinch your nostrils to feel the pressure and ensure there is enough compression force.

During equalization, intentionally release your pinched nostrils to let the air in your throat escape, then confirm whether you can equalize again.
 

Note: Swallowing, moving your jaw, and other similar actions can only help adjust the Eustachian tube to a more suitable position for pressure balancing; they cannot replace proper equalization techniques.
