Can You Fix My TMJ

When trauma (both physical and mental) occurs, our bodies and minds wall off the effects, so we can continue to function. While this has survival value initially, over time it impales our innate sense of wholeness. These effects can include nervous system hyper-vigilance, rigid somatic patterning and conditioned emotional responses.

Through skillful touch and bodywork we can facilitate clients in releasing these effects, in becoming present in their bodies and learning to reunite with their experience of wholeness.

Treating the Source of Headache Pain

Headaches refer to a broad range of pain experienced in the head and face. They derive from any combination of various structures including nerves, sutures, sinuses, arteries, muscles, and the functional and structural abnormalities. Sources can be both local and remote from the site of pain.

The key to treating headaches is finding the source of pain by asking the right questions during client intake, knowing headache type profiles and having accurate palpatory assessment skills. We can then differentiate among the many sources and types of headache and base our treatments accordingly.

In this workshop you’ll learn to differentiate between facial, sutural, TMJ, neurologic, structural and vestibular causes that result in migraine, tension, sinus, cluster and other headaches; how to assess headache pain and how to treat headaches.
