Massage for Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction - 7 CE hours (Tuition $165)

According to the NIH: TMJ Dysfunction (TMJD) is the second most commonly occurring musculoskeletal condition resulting in pain and disability preceded only by chronic low back pain. NIH estimates that 5 to 12% of the population suffers from TMJD.

After completing this course each participant will be able to identify the major muscles involved in TM joint movement, better understand the causes of TMJ pain, and apply specific Swedish techniques to help reduce TMJ pain.

This course includes external massage only though we may discuss internal work and do self-care work internal to the mouth.

(Note: This course covers introductory level TMJD work.)
