Oh thanks glen!
THAT is very good to know. Purely For What it's worth the students I click
with as much as possible avoid using vague langauge with helping manage the
TMJ and cautionend me that chinese medicine his a little hit and mis for
sniffing out the root what's causing TMJ. Basically the person I am pretty
lucky to try is also studying to be a GP I simply don't know if that's a
new thing to the SouthWest school or not he's the 3rd person their be into
nutriction, health etc.


Sufficed to say I was under the mis-impression that Chriopracties might be
able to help.  thank Buddha for the caitonary tale.


If Chriopracty(SP) is not a good idea after all.  Any idea where or to get
help with from it? Just to keep the cards on the table: I tried PT several
months ago for the TechNeck and some of the TMJ. It helped some but with
only 5-6 essions it's hard to make solid progress.

What might be the next step then? BoddyWork specialist maybe? If their is
such a thing?


As to Acupucnture and weird medicine. Totally agree it can get pretty iffy.
The student I'm (temporatily) assigned down to earth he avoids vague iffy
language.  I can see that'd be rare. If  I undserstand right Heard right
he's also studying to be a GP.
