My name is Dr. Kate. I am a movement educator, chiropractor, yoga instructor, and anatomy nerd. I want to bring more balance to people's lives and make it possible for them to continue to do their physical hobbies while staying injury free for the long term. I have a heavy focus in post partum, pelvic floor work, diastasis recti, c section work, and core function. I follow a lot of the principles of Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization. I feel that you can fix so much with addressing core imbalances and breath work. This is for the person wanting to learn MORE about their bodies and take ownership of keeping themselves functioning at their best and for the movement professional (yoga instructor, chiropractor, PT, pilates instructor, etc) that wants to learn more on how to help curate a better experience/fix for their patient or client. I am a continuing ed JUNKIE. Take advantage of all of the courses I have taken and continue to take along with clinical practice and distilled down into a more palatable experience.

In today’s episode, we’re diving into everything you need to know about TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disorders. Drawing from years of experience and the latest advancements in therapy, I’ll discuss how TMJ affects the muscles we use for chewing, why clenching and grinding can worsen the problem, and how a multifaceted approach—using therapies like shockwave and laser—can provide long-lasting relief. Whether you’re dealing with jaw pain, headaches, or tension from stress, this episode will guide you through effective solutions. Key Highlights: Traditional TMJ Treatments: Muscle work, adjustments, and at-home exercises remain foundational. Advancements in Therapy: Shockwave therapy for targeted muscle relief. Laser therapy to reduce inflammation in areas like the temporalis muscle. Muscle Focus: Masseter (jaw) and temporalis (above the ear) muscles are primary targets for treatment. Sternocleidomastoid muscle (neck to collarbone) is often overlooked but closely linked to TMJ pain and headaches. Clenching Awareness: Many people are unaware of daytime clenching until pointed out, making it easier to address. Nighttime clenching, often stress-related, requires additional interventions. Stress Management: Downregulating the nervous system before bed helps reduce nighttime grinding and clenching. Comprehensive Approach: A combination of manual therapies, advanced technology, and stress reduction techniques ensures the best long-term results. Conclusion: TMJ is a complex issue that affects multiple areas of the body, but with a well-rounded treatment plan, relief is possible. By addressing both the physical and stress-related components, we can provide comprehensive care for lasting results. If you have questions or are dealing with TMJ symptoms, don’t hesitate to reach out—we’re here to help!…
