Abstract

This case is witten for presenting the effect of the TMJ balancing therapy using the TMJ balancing appliance which normalizes the yin and yang balance of the brain-nervous system including the Meridian system. The balancing appliance was used in patient with cervical dystonia, and clinical outcome measurements were performed through clinical observations in specific movement and actions. The patient displayed positive changes after the treatment and the effect was well-maintained during the treatment period. For the more precise evaluation, clinical and biological studies of temporomandibular balancing therapy (TBT) are needed.

본 증례에서는 턱관절 문제가 시작 된 후 연축성 사경증이 발병한 뒤 다년간의 치료로 호전이 없던 환자에게서 턱관절 음양균형요법(Yin-yang Balancing Therapy of TMJ)을 위주로 침, 추나, 약물요법 등의 한의학적 치료를 통해 유의한 효과를 얻어 보고하는 바이다.
