Technique: TMJ Mastery part 2
This is the second part of a three-part series exploring principles and concepts of intra-oral applications for the treatment of TMJ dysfunction. In Part One, it was reported that in March 2007, 73 per cent of 180 people surveyed over one week in London, Ontario, indicated they “clenched their teeth.” 1 Even though TMJ dysfunction cases present with many complex sign and symptom variations, this example market indicates many people over-employ their masticatory muscles, often accumulating two common findings: asymmetrical hypertonicity of masticatory muscles; compression in the TM joints (diminished Articular Disc space).

It is a complex area of the body to understand and is therefore extremely interesting.

Blissful Mobile Massage
Well, I’ve come a long way from the East coast to the West or “Left Coast” as it is called here in San Francisco. Many have left their hearts here, as the Tony Bennett song goes, but as much as I love it, I left my heart in my birthplace, Cape Breton Island.

Practice Management: Spring 2007
Talk to any business manager and they’ll tell you the most stressed individual within the organization is probably them.
