Dr. Jenny had the honor of interviewing  a leader in the field of Cranial Osteopathy, Dr. Tasha Turzo.  We will be learning how cranial osteopaths treat craniofacial pain patients.  I will lead this discussion and dive into key treatment areas of the head and neck including the following:

• Osteopathic manual medicine:  Discover how cranial osteopaths diagnose areas of strain or dysfunction using  a highly trained sense of touch to feel subtle changes of tension and tissue quality in the living anatomy of the whole body.
• Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)  Injections to the TMJ:  Learn when to refer for PRP injections to the TMJ and what this type of treatment provides your craniofacial pain patients.
• Prolotherapy:  Find out how dextrose or sugar water injections help reduce inflammation in the joints and how it compares to BOTOX injections.
• ALF treatment:  Learn what the Advanced Lightwire Functionals (ALF) palatal expansion treatment entails from a cranial osteopathic point of view,an integral part of the treatment team.
