TMJ Dysfunction, and TMJ pain can be debilitating, and depending who you consult with, a wide range of treatments are available. Dr. Tyler Holt began to notice a strong correlation between TMJ pain and neurological disorders, which led him to explore the possibilities that the two were related.
He developed an assessment method that allows him to accurately determine if the cranial bones (bones of the skull) and upper neck are properly aligned and a method for realigning them as well. It is painless, highly effective, and has many positive benefits such as improved neurological functioning and decreased pain symptoms.
He draws much of his understanding from the works of the Sacral Occipital Technique (SOT). The TMJ, “Temporomandibular Joint dysfunction“, is usually where we feel the pain, however it is rarely the problem unless it has been going on so long that the joint itself has degenerated.
