How Does It Work?
The function of these rings is to distort bones permanently. The bones are fragile in the initial years of the human being, and it is effortless to modify the malleable bones. Constant and thorough pressure can twist the skeleton in the desired shape. The Kayan Padaung natives know this and start their daughters at age five.
These neck bands compress ribs and collar bones, resulting in the seeming elongation of the neck. The twisting of bones at the angle of 45 degrees is more than the usual slant. The neck looks expanded since the bones are set much lower than their actual placement. It increases the space between every vertebra.
