MYOFASCIAL THERAPY
Myofascial Release is the deep tissue work that effects tissues below the skin which includes the fascia that holds the skin to muscle, the fascia that holds the muscle to muscle and muscle to bone. It is a proven method for the relief of deep chronic pain. Many unrelated symptoms can be traced back to myofascial causes, such as the trigger point with its predictable distribution.
Temporo-mandibular Joint Dysfunction
The TMJ is unique because it is a joint with movable padding inside called a disc. TMJ location is in the upper part of the mouth in a facial bone called the maxilla. It is probably the most often used bone in the human body, and there are two of them: one located on either side of the face just in front of the ear. Misalignment of the joints are known to cause a significant pain syndrome.
