Pain Science Education Administered in Full or Fractioned Dosage Modes for Temporomandibular Disorders

Pain Science Education (PSE) will be administered in workshop sessions with interactive presentations, using different resources as metaphors and videos. It will be held in 2 sessions of 45 minutes each, covering 6 topics of Explain Pain and Explain Pain Supercharged books.

Intraoral temporalis release, Intraoral medial and lateral pterygoid (origin) technique and Intraoral sphenopalatine ganglion technique.

"Orofacial Exercises: Mandibular body-condylar cross-pressure chewing technique; Post-isometric relaxation stretches-laterotrusion and opening (10 times/session; 10 seconds).~Neck Motor Control Exercises: Bracing exercises (6 hierarchical levels - HL). Extreme range of motion exercises (stable spine). Cervical isometric exercises (5 HL) directly forward, obliquely, toward right and left, and directly backward (stable spine - elastic resistive bands). Functional training with elastic resistance and exercise balls on unstable surfaces (8 HJ). The progress in each exercise domain will happen when sustaining the contraction for 10 seconds, 10 times."
