While I’ve been quite successful for some time in working with cervical spinal dysfunctions, adding the Q-1000 laser system has created a whole new dimension to my success in treating these conditions.

The coracoclavicular ligaments are an often overlooked area in shoulder girdle and thoracic outlet dysfunction. Their anatomical position places them in a crucial junction between the coracoid process and lateral clavicle and they are often short and tight with a history of trauma or postural issues.

A key structure in TMJ dysfunction, the lateral pterygoid muscle is a primary muscle of mastication and is often restricted and tight. It is frequently associated with upper cervical and occipital pain. I find that I can get significant changes in the suboccipital region simply by releasing the lateral pterygoids bilaterally.
