Facial Pain or Numbness
臉痛或臉麻痺

Blurry or Double Vision
視力模糊或出現重影

Many people with Temporomandibular Joint Disorder (TMJD) experience more than just jaw symptoms but the other parts of your body. In some cases, even after imaging, dental, or orthodontic interventions, these symptoms may not be fully explained or resolved. 
 

Jaw has close connections with the nervous system. When the body remains in a prolonged state of tension or protection (guarding), symptoms may present in more complex and widespread ways.
 

不少患有顳顎關節症的患者,除了出現下顎相關的徵狀外,還可導致身體其他部分出現問題。在某些情況下,即使已接受影像檢查、牙科或矯正治療,這些症狀仍未必能被完全解釋或改善。


事實上,下顎與神經系統之間存在密切聯繫。當身體長期處於緊張或保護狀態時,症狀有時會以較分散、較複雜的方式呈現出來。

From TMJD Referred Pain to
Nervous System Regulation

TMJD-related symptoms such as tinnitus/ear pain, severe/persistent headaches, facial pain/numbness, blurry/double vision are not only about where pain is felt, but how the body is responding overall. When the nervous system stays in a prolonged state of protection, muscle activity, posture, and movement patterns can remain guarded even when there is no immediate threat. Over time, this can place continuous load on the jaw–neck–head system and contribute to symptoms that fluctuate or persist. In this context, supporting nervous system regulation becomes as important as addressing the joint or muscles themselves.
 

與顳顎關節相關的不適,例如:耳嗚/耳痛、嚴重及持續性頭痛、臉痛或臉麻痺及視力模糊或出現重影等等,並不只取決於疼痛出現的位置,而是與整個身體的反應方式有關。當神經系統長時間維持在保護或警戒狀態時,即使沒有即時危險,肌肉活動、姿勢及動作模式仍可能持續處於防禦狀態。久而久之,這會令下顎、頸部及整個系統承受持續負荷,導致症狀反覆或難以完全緩解。在這種情況下,如何協助神經系統回復調節狀態,便成為與處理關節或肌肉同樣重要的一環。

Reflex Integration
神經反射整合

Reflex integration focuses on how the nervous system organizes body movement, muscle tone and protective responses. These reflex patterns develop early in life to support survival, but over time, they are meant to integrate so that the brain can regulate movement more efficiently.
 

When certain reflex patterns remain active, the body may continue to respond as if it needs to protect itself. This can contribute to ongoing muscle guarding, heightened sensitivity, and difficulty fully relaxing, particularly in areas closely linked to the brainstem, including the jaw, neck, and upper body.
 

In TMJD-related cases, reflex integration is explored as a way to support nervous system regulation, reduce unnecessary protective responses, and improve coordination between the jaw and the rest of the body.

神經反射整合著重於神經系統如何組織動作、調節肌肉張力及管理身體的保護反應。這些反射模式在早期發展階段有其重要作用,但隨著成長,理想情況下應逐漸被整合,讓大腦能更有效地調節動作與姿勢。

當某些反射模式未能完全整合,身體可能仍然處於「需要保護自己」的狀態,從而出現持續的肌肉防禦、敏感度提高,以及難以真正放鬆的情況,尤其是在與腦幹密切相關的區域,如下顎、頸部及上半身。


在顎關節節症的患者中,神經反射整合治療是一種支援神經系統調節的方法,目的是減少不必要的保護反應,並改善下顎與全身之間的協調。
