Step | Details |
---|---|
1 | Treatment of all underlying muscular, fascial, osseous and visceral dysfunctions in the body that impair the function of the jaw joint and the postural patterns. |
2 | Treatment of the occipital bone and temporal bone. |
3 | Treatment of the masticatory muscles. |
4 | Treatment of the hyoid muscles. |
5 | Treatment of the neck muscles. |
6 | Treatment of the craniocervical fascias. |
7 | Treatment of the condyles and disks. A reduction in the intensity of pain in the facilitated segment should normally be achieved before the alignment of the TMJ is normalized. |
8 | Treatment of the mandibular ligaments. |
9 | Treatment of sphenopetrosal ligament at the sphenopetrosalsynchondrosis. |
10 | Improvement of nasal breathing: treatment of the paranasal sinuses and tonsils. |
