Добавлен 30 май 2019
Midwest Movement is an evidence-informed, movement-based chiropractic clinic with a holistic approach to patient care in Elkhorn, Nebraska. We provide biomechanical solutions to biomechanical problems. If your pain is caused by a movement problem or muscle imbalance, medications, injections, and surgeries likely won’t provide the lasting fix you want. However, the conservative chiropractic care and integrated therapies offered at Midwest Movement will address the reason your pain began in the first place. We take a natural, non-invasive, hands-on approach to musculoskeletal care. This includes traditional chiropractic care, as well as rehabilitative exercise, cutting-edge manual therapy, and dry needling techniques. Our bodies respond best to hands-on treatments, and they’re all that’s needed to resolve most muscle and joint complaints.
It’s the perfect solution: non-invasive, low risk, simple, effective.

Assessing TMJ
Our initial focus during an assessment is determining if the issue is related to the joint itself or the surrounding soft tissue. This involves differentiating between intracapsular (joint-related) issues and extracapsular (soft tissue-related) issues.
Checking Jaw Movement and Alignment
We start by asking the patient to open their jaw as wide as possible, observing for any deviation, lateral movement, or clicking and popping sounds. These signs indicate TMD, pointing us toward a potential dysfunction within the TMJ.
Palpating the Joint for Pain
Next, we apply gentle pressure around the TMJ while the patient slightly opens their jaw. We ask if this replicates any regular symptoms. If it does,...

The Jaw: TMJ

TMJ vs. TMD: What’s the Difference? First, let’s clarify a common misconception. The term "TMJ" actually refers to the joint itself-the temporomandibular joint.

The term "TMD" (temporomandibular dysfunction) describes conditions that cause pain, limited movement, and other issu...
