Abstract
This is a report of a case of a patient with symptoms of temporomandibular joint pain (TMJP), trismus, migraine headaches and associated left eye blurred vision daily for years. Previously seen and treated by non-osteopathic providers, this patient reported failed treatments including dental guards, muscle relaxers, over-the-counter analgesics and narcotics. Following a single treatment with osteopathic manipulative medicine (OMM) the patient reported resolution of her symptoms, allowing her to discontinue the use of specially made glasses with a left eye corrective lens.
