Dr. Prather says that "almost everybody" needs to have their jaw adjusted at some point and that TMJ is under-diagnosed even among Chiropractors.  Holistic Integration Associate Chiropractor Dr. Dodge joins us for our discussion this week.  In this episode, you'll learn:

—How people can complain about neck pain, headaches, hip pain, or elbow and wrist pain when the real issue is in their jaw.
—The story of how Dr. Prather invented his own TMJ adjusting techniques as a first-year Chiropractic student because his friend tried to commit suicide three times due to TMJ pain.
—Why Holistic Integration has such a high success rate with TMJ.  And why Dr. Prather says you can never get the jaw into place if you don't have the Atlas in place first.
—The natural supplements that Dr. Prather finds helpful for TMJ.
—The connection between emotions and TMJ.  And why TMJ issues are heavily linked to suicide and treatment-resistant depression.
—The symptoms of TMJ, including: jaw pain, headaches, ear ache, neck pain, sore muscles, facial pain, tooth pain, chronic fatigue, depression, sleep disorders, and even decreased libido.  And why TMJ symptoms are a "vicious cycle" that perpetuate the TMJ.
—How Holistic Integration treats people who come from all over the country because they are suffering from Craniocervical Instability.
—The surprising connection between the pelvis and the jaw.  And Dr. Dodge's clinical observation of a potential connection between a woman's monthly cycle and TMJ.
—Why GENTLE, non-force Chiropractic adjusting techniques are necessary for TMJ.  And the helpful corrective exercises patients are given AFTER their jaw is correctly aligned.
—How Rapid Release is "an amazing" device used at Holistic Integration that helps TMJ.  And the effectiveness of the Auriculotherapy (or Ear Acupuncture) treatment used at Holistic Integration for TMJ.
