Shoulder Pain and Jaw: What If They’re Connected? 🤔

Do you suffer from shoulder pain that just won’t go away? Do you suffer from shoulder pain and jaw discomfort that just won’t go away? What if these two symptoms were actually connected? This is exactly what happened to Alex.


When the Jaw Triggers Shoulder Pain 😱

After getting a dental implant, Alex began feeling persistent pain in his left shoulder. He assumed it was a shoulder issue — but traditional physical therapy didn’t help.

Using stabilometric tests, we discovered the real problem: his jaw was out of alignment, creating a postural imbalance. His body was compensating — and the pain showed up in the shoulder.

This is a classic example of how shoulder pain and jaw alignment can be deeply connected through the body’s compensation mechanisms.


The Neuromeningeal Axis: A Missing Piece in Many Diagnoses

To address the problem, we focused on the neuromeningeal axis — a critical structure that links the jaw, spine, and brain.

By relieving tension in this axis, we were able to rebalance the body and significantly reduce Alex’s pain — without directly treating the shoulder. 💥


Manual Informational Therapy: Understanding Before Treating

Our approach starts with a method called manual informational therapy, done in three precise steps:

  1. Diagnostic testing: Gentle assessments to reveal the origin of the dysfunction.
  2. Neural saturation: Small, targeted stimulations (“neural flicks”) to reset the body’s perception.
  3. Verification: We check if the pain has decreased — if so, the diagnosis is confirmed.

Long-Term Correction: Insoles and Brain Reprogramming

To stabilize the result and prevent recurrence, we used a pure postural insole with a sub-pulp support under the big toe, along with a RCB (Retro Capital Barre).

These tools help correct the false signals in the brain and cerebellum that often maintain postural dysfunctions related to the jaw.


Don’t Just Treat the Symptom — Fix the System 🔑

At AJ Posture, we don’t just mask pain — we treat the body as a whole.
Our goal is to reduce compensation patterns, restore optimal function, and bring your body back into balance.

If you’re struggling with shoulder pain and jaw tension, it’s time to consider a postural and neurological approach instead of just treating symptoms.
