Since CST uses a whole body approach, evaluating the body from their head to their feet no matter what the symptom is. Susan also stated that sometimes emotional stress is involved in TMJD, and emotional releases often present themselves during a CST session. This is a bonus of the therapy, something that cannot be addressed by a typical allopathic treatment of TMJD.
