TMJ alignment with Dr Amir

[EJC]

I've just updated Emma's treatment thread as she finished treatment with Dr Amir today.

We figured out towards the end of last year that years of living with "MS" had changed Emma's gait and muscle capability to such a degree that she needed rehabilitation to deal with the mobility issues. Since we passed this information to Dr Amir two more of his patients have started down this route one of whom has had a remarkable level of physical improvement.

This is not normal physiotherapy, it is rehabilitation much like you see in injured servicemen returning from serious trauma. In Emma's case 17 years of "MS" was a serious trauma.

As word has spread of Amirs treatment he's had a handful of newly diagnosed patients visit him rather than those that after years or decades have run out of options and gone to see Amir on the grounds of "what have you got to lose". Those newly diagnosed patients he has seen have overcome their physical problems in a much shorter timescale, sometimes weeks.

It's hard to understand how a TMJ problem can cause all the physical issues that it does, but it's even harder to comprehend how aligning the jaw correctly could allow you to walk again. Well it can and it can't.

The TMJ work removes the cause of the physical mobility problem, how quickly mobility is recovered is then directly related to how severe and how long the TMJ misalignment has been afflicting the patient. It may be a case (such as Emma's) that simply realigning the jaw has removed the cause, but so much damage was done over years of being immobile that recovery without specialist physical rehab was never going to happen.

Emma is now effectively learning how to walk again. The TMJ realignment has allowed this to happen.

So on the whole, Amir was having little luck with physical movement issues, particularly patients legs because his patients tended to be those that have been chair bound or severely restricted for years. This only became apparent when a couple of newly diagnosed patients visited Amir and we're helped in a matter of weeks rather than years.

Think of like this, imagine medicine discovered a way of reversing paralysis in spinal injuries. One patient was injured 10 years ago a second 10 days ago. Both get there spinal columns repaired. The patient injured 10 days ago can get up walk out, the one injured 10 years probably had 2-3 years of physical rehab. This TMJ issue is no different.
