The main causes are:<\/p>

  • a blockage of traumatic origin (shock, hard food, chronic grinding or clenching of teeth…) which leads to a spasm of the temporal, masseter, and pterygoid muscles (the muscles of mastication). The correction is made with one hand on the traumatic centre of the ankle, the other hand looks for the blockage on the lateral side of the head, vertically to the tragus.<\/li>
  • over tension of emotional and mental origin (stress…). The blockages of the muscles of mastication have a nervous aetiology. Energetic disturbances mainly concern the Shao Yang level (TW -GB – Yang Wei Mai)<\/li>
  • malocclusion. Blockages of the 1st phalanx of the middle finger and of the TMJ persist after treatment as well as the blockage of the T4-T5 mechanical centre (see picture 3) as seen previously. It requiers recourse to a specialist in occlusodonctis.<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
