What's the Most Effective Way to Treat Headaches Caused by Painful Spreading Trigger Points ? 🤕 Part 1

👉🏻Let's understand what they are and why they become chronic long-term issues, so we best see how to treat them.

This is so important because once we understand this these myofascial pain issues are vascular/chemical issues, we realize that they can't be treated effectively by "stretching" or "massaging" them away.

Deep within tiny areas of muscle, it's become acidic. And this begins to signal to neighboring areas and eventually even the whole body that it's in a state of crisis. The whole body is primed to experience more pain as a "safety measure". We need to short circuit this chemical/vascular issue as soon as possible for full recovery.

What are the Essentials to Successful TMJ Treatment⁉️🤨

TENSION is the sole cause of TMJ and TMJ-related pain and symptoms- headaches, tinnitus, etc.

It has 2 sources that must be thoroughly addressed/eliminated throughout the neck, face, jaw and shoulders-

👉🏻Muscles & Joints.

Massage, exercises, stretches, and even night guards/splints are ineffective ways to address this tension.

Once tension is addressed, then empowering behaviors and stable positioning must be reinforced to ensure that the all the initial causes of that tension are released. Only then can we ensure the tension leading to your pain is gone 🎉 AND resolved so it will not return🙌🏻

Having a Supportive Partner was this Patient's Key to TMJ Success

I want to share with you a story from a patient that just finished treatment with me.

There are so many important points to dive into with this story- but what I found most helpful to share involves the ultimate reason why this patient got better-

Because his partner went out of her way to encourage him and support him

And he acknowledged that he wouldn't have moved forward and gotten better without his supportive partner's encouragement.

And here's how she did that-

She recognized that ultimately he had to decide whether he wanted to live his life in pain moving forward and taking daily pain-relieving medications.

Or-

Was he willing to make the decision to finally get back to normal again and return to living his best life!

I get it. I've heard the story from my patients many many times. So many TMJ treatments out there are really expensive and... they really don't work.

Or are really quite inexpensive and... those really don't do much either. Maybe some temporary relief at best, but more than anything- just time-consuming.

And the worst thing is that when you have enough treatments that don't work... you often start to believe- NOTHING will work.

And that's what this patient was believing when he came to see me. He'd been referred to me by an incredible nationally-renowned dentist/endodontist. And he'd read my many highly positive reviews. He saw all my advanced certification and credentials. But... he still was hesitant to move forward.

Unfortunately, that's the one thing that will never get you where you want to go in life.

So many patients that I see in my office are "givers". They give to everyone else in their life that they love. But they so rarely give lovingly to themselves.

Thankfully, as he told me, his partner loves him dearly and recognized this. And she generously explained to him that to solve his daily pain it was well worth it financially. To finally get the help he needed and to see him get past his TMJ, tooth pain, headaches and root canals- once and for all!

And lastly, I appreciate his forthright willingness to help others and offer to do this video and share his story. The hope is that it will help others that are feeling stuck and hesitant.

As his wife reminded him-

Life's too short to live it in pain everyday.

Isn't all TMJ treatment roughly the same?

Hmm. Well, can't we expect all professional cooks/restaurants to at least be pretty good?

Or is there really much of difference between singers like Taylor Swift and Ashlee Simpson?

Yep, you get it now. Unfortunately, health care is the same. All TMJ treatment is NOT created equal😢
