physiotherapy
Cranio-sacral therapy is a very gentle treatment that releases the tension in the connective tissue due to trauma, posture, chronic pain, or inflammation. Connective tissues, or fascia, surrounds the muscles, bones, nerves, and organs of the body. For this reason tension in one area of the body can show up as pain in another area. Cranio-sacral therapy is a wonderful therapy for treating concussion, whiplash, chronic pain, and due to its extremely relaxing effects - anxiety.

When it malfunctions, you have problems chewing, talking, yawning and opening your mouth wide or closing it fully. You may also experience frequent pain, tenderness and swelling.
