I am an expert in the subjects being covered.A PhD. in the field and 61 years of experience working with people who suffer,as I do. The book is a waste of hope,time and money..thus bringing on more depression in my patients.So sad. Dr.Daniels

I am 53 yr old female who has suffered with TMJ/whiplash, since I was 21. This book helped me more than any PT or splint (I've gone thru 4). I would also recommend finding a dentist who makes the NTI-tss it blocks the temporalis muscles and the trigeminal nerve. Good Luck.

TMJ Self healing, October 22, 2009

I bought this book to do research on my limited mouth opening after brain surgery. I am in the process of reading the book and am looking forward to trying the things suggested. No doctors have helped me so I decided to look for my own cure. I would recommend this book to anyone who suspects they have a TMJ issue.

An Absolute must for TMJD Sufferers., September 20, 2009

After suffering for at least 13 years with constant vertigo and phantom ear problems, I found the answer behind the symptoms. I had indepth testing of my ears and brain. No tumors and not even hearing loss even though my hearing was muffled. I was diagnosed with TMJD about 13 years ago but when I was told I had TMJD all that was said was I have a jaw disorder. I took it upon myself to read blogs of other TMJD sufferers and low and behold, there it was, the demand that people with this disorder must read this amazing book. It pin points trigger points and muscles and what they cause if they are in disstress. It gives exercises to help too. I love how it shows diagrams of muscles and explains the details of fascia and the workings of it all. It was short book packed with answers to long sot after questions of pain and medical issues that cannot be solved or founded. The author is a doctor who does not want surgery and pain killers and tries to help in the most common sensical way. Great book and I feel empowered and educated. It is nice to understand the workings of the amazing machine called our bodies but even more so when there is a problem. God Bless you Dr. Uppgaard for this wonderful book and those of you who suffer. There is hope!

It will solve the problem., September 17, 2009

This book helped me in short order. I had a terrible case of TMJ and didn't know how in the world it developed. I read only a tiny bit and immediately recognized myself: I was overworked during that period and would fall asleep late at night sitting up at my computer, which caused my lower jaw to jut forward (not a pretty sight). I immediately stopped that and the TMJ went completely away, never to return. There are many other causes of TMJ covered in the book. I feel certain you'll discover the cause of yours.
