Muscle lifting the lower jaw (posterior group)
Chewing muscles (m. masseter) starts from the bottom edge and the inner surface of the zygomatic arch, the anterior slope of the articular tubercle of temporal bone, temporal fascia. It is attached to the chewing surface of the outer branches of lumpy jaw below the notch. From the lower jaw muscle bundles directed upward, forward and outward. Masticatory muscle raises the lower jaw, its surface layer makes the jaw forward, with unilateral reduction – it shifts downward. 

Temporalis muscle (m.temporalis) has fan-shaped form and consists of 3 layers: superficial, medium and deep. It starts from the inner layer of the temporal fascia in the temporal line, temporal bone, the temporal surface of the large wing and infratemporal crest of the sphenoid bone, parietal, frontal scales, the temporal surface of zygomatic bone. Hangs onto the top and the outer surface of the coronoid process, the branches of the mandible in its cutting and oblique lines, the inner surface of the branches of the mandible. From the lower jaw muscle bundles directed upward, outward and somewhat backward. The front and middle beams lift the lower jaw, rear – an advanced jaw pulled back. 

Medial muscle webbed (m.pterygoideus medialis) is rectangular in shape. It starts from the walls of the holes pterygium pterygium sprouts sphenoid bone, the outer surface of the pyramidal sprouts palatine bone. Hangs onto pterygium tuberosity on the inner surface of the angle of the mandible (symmetrically with chewing muscle). From the lower jaw muscle bundles directed upwards, inwards and anteriorly at an angle of 37-48 °. At the bilateral muscle contraction raises the lower jaw and brings it forward, with one-sided – moves the lower jaw to the opposite side and upwards. 

Lateral webbed muscle (m.pterygoideus lateralis) has a triangular shape and lies in the infratemporal fossa. It starts with two heads (upper and lower). Upper head originates from the infratemporal surface and infratemporal crest of a large wing of sphenoid bone and the tendon of the deep layer of temporalis muscle. Lower head departs from the outer surface of the pterygium sprouts sphenoid bone. The upper head is attached to the articular bag and fibroplate temporomandibular joint, the lower head – to pterygium fossa condylar sprouts mandible. From the lower jaw muscle fibers are directed forward and inward. At the bilateral muscle contraction raises the lower jaw forward, with one-sided – shifts in the opposite direction [SS Mikhailov, 1973].

(Health and Beauty) I can not stress this oneugh, read the label and all ingredients before using a product like this. NO Xplode uses some very dangerously high levels of some ingredients, and lots of ingredients that aren’t even needed and may actually stop you from reaching your work out goals. I used NO Xplode for almost a year, cycling it as suggested (3 months on, 1 month off). From the first time I took it I could feel it doing what it stated it would. At the gym I was very pumped up and found myself not getting tired like I would without it. It helped me stay focused. I have been working out religiously for the past year while on NO Xplode, going nearly every single day. I eventually had to kick up the dosage to 3 scoops to get the same effect as 1 scoop did when I first started. I know this is normal, so it didn’t bother me. But after a year, I felt like I was getting the results I expected. I was gaining a lot of muscle mass of course, and saw the weight I could lift getting much higher. But there was fat around my stomach that I just couldn’t get rid of. Not a lot, mind you, but enoguh so that my six pack was not visible, and there was still a little grab of fat on my sides. That’s when I started looking deeper into the supplements I was taking to try and figure out why. What I found out shocked me. Maltodextrin. This has no use in this product except being used as filler. In fact, this is the single product responsible for me not being able to lose my extra fat. Look at the label, it is listed under Other ingredients . It has NO use in this product. It is used as filler and STORES FAT. The amount of magnesium in this product is unbelieveable. 150mg per scoop. That is 450mg if you use 3 scoops. This is way higher than what a normal adult should intake in A DAY. After taking NO Xplode for about 6 months, I found myself having to run to the bathroom every time I went to the gym, about 15 minutes after I got there. The reason? Magnesium is used by doctors to be a laxative. Does this product work? Yes. Do I recommend it at all? No way. The maltodextrin and magnesium in the product alone should be oneugh to keep people away. It can be very dagerous. This review along with the review stating his liver enzymes were through the roof from this product should hopefully be oneugh warning for people. Oh, and their post workout product, Cellmass, is also packed full of maltodextrin. So if you are working out like crazy and not getting the results you are expecting, it could be because of the supplements you are taking. There are plenty of alternative supplements out there that do not contain dangerously high levels of ingredients like maltodextrin and magnesium. Make sure you do your research before you purchase!

Hi Flo, there are two separate ieusss at play here:1. Thoracic rotation, and 2. Thoracic side-flexion. I’ll give you the answer but I’ll warn you that its not going to be a simple answer:1. Thoracic rotation: unless there is an organ/nutritional issue directly causing the rotation, you’re going to want to look somewhere else�eg, the pelvis or the arches. Your training focus should be to the activate everything below the thoracic vertebrae (so, tib post, toe flexors, may need to stretch the gastroc or toe extensors to get these working; then any other major pelvic players like gluteus maximus or illio-psoas, one of which will need to be stretched and the other recruited during Gait Cycle; and finally a quick look at Iliocostalis lumborum, the QL and multifidus lumborum to ensure they’re not in spasm on one side and holding the pelvis out of alignment something that may also ultimately be Gait Cycle related). See if those things balance the pelvis. If they do, problem solved. If not, it may be organ-related or it may very well be referring down from the mid-back as is the case with scoliosis. I often see cervical misalignment referring all the way down, and there’s a way of therapy-localizing the cervical vertebrae to see if any of them are out if so its now a question of what is causing what (top-down or bottom-up) and you can chase your tail for quite a while on this one. 2. Thoracic side-flexion. Scoliosis can be tricky. Any time there’s side-flexion, nerves are being pinched and there is decreased innervation to numerous muscles and compensation during stance, gait and lifting. When its fully a skeletal deformity you need to work with it, not against it. Here are two practices I’ve found effective:a) isometrics to activate all the thoracic muscles before each workout: illiocostalis lumborum thoracis, Multifidus lumborum, thoracis and cervicis, QU, Spinalis and Longissimus. You’ve done my courses so you know the isometrics for these: do them. On a more gait-related level, it may be that your client needs to learn to perform more thoracic rotation while walking to ensure these muscles are being activated from Gait, as this will be one of the main causes of inhibition even with scoliosis.b) if there is pronounced rotation in one direction, you may need to do isolating exercises in the opposite direction to unwind the posture neurologically. A simple CNS test will demonstrate whether the unwinding exercise has been effective: test before medial deltoid should be off. Do the unwind test again. If delt is still off, that wasn’t it. Once you find a range of motion that innervates delt you’ll know you’re on the right track.Throughout all of this, the golden rule of Vitruvian Biomechanics applies: don’t put the body under load until everything is firing, or else you’ll just get more pain and exacerbate the existing imbalances. Activate everything first and you should make headway.If you try everything above and it still doesn’t work, you have two final options: look at leg length sometimes a simple heel lift will fix the problem (but it can also make it worse if there is no leg length discrepancy, and don’t confuse leg length with pelvic misalignment�you’ll actually need to measure ASIS to heel); or refer him to a practitioner who knows how to muscle test and see if they’ll let you sit in on the appointment and learn.Hope that helps, let me know how it goes.LC

Hi Richard. There are two levels to your plorbem. The first you’re already aware of, although we’re using different language to describe it: 1. Fascial adhesions (which you call scare tissue). I prefer my term because it emphasizes that these are temporary, and can be worked out with therapy. You can try different methods: trigger point, shockwave, whatever you like; but none of them will work until you answer one important question. What is causing the adhesions in the first place? Sure there was an initial injury but why has it lingered so long, or why does it keep coming back after being massaged out?2. The root cause. Initially, your injury was the root cause of the pain but now there will be a different root cause: continued compensation through gait and movement. The process is simple: when you hurt yourself, you started moving differently to favour the sore spot. The soreness never fully went away because by learning to move in compensation, the area has stayed seized up, creating the impression that no therapy works.By only focusing on the tissue release, and not the compensation through gait, you’re only doing half of what is needed, kind of like shoveling out a sand pit by throwing the sand up-hill so it slides back into the pit. Futile and frustrating.A muscle testing evaluation will ascertain which muscles are in adhesion but may not tell you anything you don’t already know. What you probably need is really, really deep fascial release combined with gait cycle coaching. If your hamstring and glute are tight, that’s a sign of a shortened stride on one side, which is consistent with compensation from an injury. So do both, and that should fix it. My VTS Level 2 students understand how to modify gait to produce muscle activation in the glute hamstring. If you can figure it out of yourself, go for it. If you’d like a referral to one of my students, let me know and I’ll put you in touch.One final note: I suspect every muscle in your upper leg is over-contracted with fascia, so by really deep tissue release, I mean about 6 hours of deep tissue massage, hitting every muscle you have: all 4 quads, all 4 hamstrings, all 3 glutes, the piriformis, gemellus superior, inferior, oburator internis externis, and all 3 adductors. And probably both calf muscles, all 3 peroneals and the politeus. A simple muscle testing exam will reveal which ones aren’t firing and need help, but don’t miss any or your attempts to walk properly will be thwarted by fascial resistance.Okay, good luck. Hope that gets you out of pain once and for all. http://ssndsn.com [url=http://gmachrhvug.com]gmachrhvug[/url] [link=http://blbmjchqmfr.com]blbmjchqmfr[/link]

I’am a thoroughbred teainrr in NY I have been doing a lot of research on rife technology i’am interested to know if there are any veterinarians using your equipment ? The areas that I would be interested in. Would be soft tissue joint related issues and very depilating disease called EPM I would really appreciate hearing from you as I’am seriously considering purchasing this equipment for my horses thanking you in advance Sincerly.

Hi Kip,This is a great question. I don’t bevelie there is a right or wrong answer other than what works best for YOU. Much will depend on Why are you transitioning? Personally, I don’t recommend it. Barefoot running is a totally different form than shod running. Improving form is the best way to prevent long term pain and injury, and lengthen your running life. You cannot train form and conditioning at the same time. I discuss all of this a little bit here:Running in shoes will reinforce your old running form making it harder to develop a new, healthier, bullet-proof form. If you have made the decision to transition, I recommend taking a few months off running for conditioning to focus on form. Anything you lose will be quickly regained.Good luck.Jesse James Retherford

I remember hugh, as a 16 year-old quite kid, and wanhcitg him climb, before an after his tragedy, and walking down the bridle path in the gunks, with his legs on the opposite legs, and i knew right there, he would accomplish great things!!he might not remember me & the philly boys, but we truely had some fun times in NEW PALTZ, listening to the whippets, in those great little bars! HE truely was an inspiration, even as a teen, i remember him soloing P.R. and i was a solid 5-11 climber, but i could only follow it, with numerous falls, he flashed it.well i might have to get one of hugh’s ankle inventions some day soon, got hit on my harley, keep up your brillant work HUGH!! the boy’s from PHILLY. p.s. this was a total rave. http://cfygenfsma.com [url=http://koczjd.com]koczjd[/url] [link=http://xqocgrm.com]xqocgrm[/link]

Janie I love the outfit. You lool great. From a ditsnace you couls probably pass as either. Although I think it will depend on the hairstyle. Tight and in a ponytail probably man androgenous. And yes heels can be a giveaway ) The real question is were you comfortable out and about like that? If you are comfortable.with yourself and your gf is as well does it matter which gender? http://ompvbfna.com [url=http://svixga.com]svixga[/url] [link=http://cokrspel.com]cokrspel[/link]

Lower jaw (mandibula) – mobile unpaired horseshoe-shaped bone. It consists of two symmetrical halves, each of which has a body and branch. The body of the mandible is presented ground and alveolar part. Body height in the jaw incisors more in the third molars – is considerably less. Its thickness is greatest in the area of molars, the lowest – at the level of small teeth. In the anterior region of the outer surface of the body has a chin mound. Accordingly, the tops of the molars are small chin holes are places where mandibular canal.
