Jaw R.E.S.E.T
The large intestine, small intestine, triple heater, gall bladder, stomach, and bladder meridians (energy pathways throughout the body) all run through the jaw. When we hold a trauma in our jaw, these meridians become imbalanced. A Jaw R.E.S.E.T session is an effective treatment for issues that may be relating to these meridians eg: digestive and bladder issues.
The session involves the placement of the practitioner's hands around particular points around the Jaw, Mouth and Face. The energetic vibration from the practitioner's hands relaxes the muscles and ligaments in the TMJ and the meridians so the whole body is in a state of relaxation and self healing and energetic imbalances become balanced.
