Completion of Somatic Experiencing Training
October 23, 2024Patient Story: Therapy for the Mouth and Jaw Pain
“I just finished an hour session of CranioSacral Therapy. I came to Dr. Feldman to work on my jaw because of arthritis in my jaw joint; I have difficulty opening my mouth and I have terrible muscular tension throughout my face. Cheeks and mouth tension adds to terrible discomfort throughout my face everyday.
After today’s session, here are the dramatic changes that I am listing below:
- The shape of my face externally reflects how Dr. Feldman’s work is able to shift the alignment of the jaw, and the alignment of the gums as well.
- My teeth come together differently. The jaw (bottom) has descended; opening up the interior space.
- My teeth are not clenched.
- The inner “chamber” of my mouth feels spacious, like the inside dome of a cathedral. There is space between the upper and lower jaws. They are relaxed.
- I feel gravity acting on my lower jaw and my tongue is relaxed.
- My windpipe has opened, and I feel a spaciousness in the back of my throat and a subtle flow of air.
- There is space within my nostrils and breathing is open up there too.
- There is space between my nose and my mouth.
- My face is relaxed, cheek tension is released and my eyes feel like the sockets are more at ease.
- My whole head feels lifted to the crown; and my breathing is better.
- My head sits lighter and floats off of my neck-free from my shoulders.
- My shoulders are dropped down away from my ears.
I encourage any practitioner within the field of dentistry, especially endodontists and periodontists to please work with Dr. Feldman.”
