Grinding Teeth

If you suffer from TMJ most likely your symptoms are many.  The importance of proper mechanics of the jaw and how it affects other areas of the body are very important to other body functions.  Many muscles attach to the jaw, throat and other facial bones.

The Jaw also holds emotional stress.  How many times do you find yourself holding back something you want to say and don’t.  Responses to others comments and don’t!  Our emotions are a part of who we are and need to be expressed.  If not our bodies will store our inability to respond.
CST allows our bodies to express and unwind the built up stress in the body, mind and spirit.
When there is improper alignment symptoms arise in the

• teeth/grinding
• bite/alignment of the teeth
• neck
• headaches/migraines
• breathing/asthma
• pain in the shoulders and low back

CST can provide relief of neck pain, headaches, low back pain, and breathing problems.

Headaches/Part 2

Hello All, I would like to share my self care bible with you.  Acupressure is one of the easiest and most flexible treatments for common ailments.  You can stimulate points anywhere, driving in your car, sitting at your desk, talking on the phone,  working points on your lunch break, or  maybe when the kids are taking a nap.  The bottom line is acupressure can easily be  incorporated into our lives.

Pain is increased by fatigue, anxiety,  worry and life stress.

Practiced on a daily basis, acupressure can aid in building the immune system and increasing a sense of relaxation. Acupressure points aid in pain relief by releasing the neurochemical "endorphins".
Endorphins are the natural pain killers, produced by the body.   The only cost to you is stimulating the points. 
The nerveous system is retrainable, so when you take the time to use points on a daily basis, the brain will relearn that new pattern.  If repeated on a regular basis, the body will learn to relax in a shorter amount of time.
Using the points everyday will also affect the people around you.  Can you imagine the people around you happier, our lives rejuvenated instead of bogged down with pain,  healthy appetites, and lower stress levels?  I like smiling, having energy and feeling positive. How about you?
I can't think of an easier, cost effective way to reduce pain and lower our stress levels.  My favorite book for acupressure is Acupressures Potent Points by Michael Reed Gach.  Great beginner book for getting started.  It is now bound by duct tape and loose pages. 


We will address headache points today, but the points also address other ailments.
