Skip to Event Registration Info

About the Event

TMJ disorders affect up to 15% of people, contributing to facial, head, and/or neck pain. Problems include difficulty chewing, talking, yawning, and even ear pain due to mobility impairments of the jaw and cervical spine. In this live interactive webinar, we’ll explore the mechanics of the TMJ and cervical spine complex to identify impairments that can be treated with manual therapy and mobility interventions. Discover what research says on how to apply manual interventions to relieve pain and regain mobility in people who suffer from TMJ dysfunction. Learn effective techniques including myofascial and positional release, craniosacral therapy, joint and soft tissue mobilization, and neuromuscular re-education to restore function. Return to your clinic with new tools to use for managing movement disorders of the TMJ with related head and neck pain for measurable results.

Live Event
This live online event will be held as a Zoom Webinar. Attendees will have the option to interact through features such as the Chat and Q&A, but cameras and microphones will not be enabled.
