Sir,
It has been three years since I have been suffering from various ailments (severe fatigue, muscle and tendon pain; abdominal pain, permanent sciatica, sensitivity to cold, nervousness...) whose medical etiology remains unknown.
I have consulted an impressive number of specialists and tried numerous treatments that have remained totally ineffective so far; I even consulted a masseur, someone who is a healthcare professional!
It turns out that I have prognathism (inverted jaw articulation) and that I underwent orthodontic treatment in my childhood to try to correct it, but to no avail. About a year ago, I consulted a dentist who, after filing some of my teeth, really changed my posture and gait. While he did not cure me, I then realized the importance of dentition and occlusion in the overall physiology of the human body.
I had nothing concrete to "put under my teeth" to advance my research until I stumbled upon the Dentosophy website.
Reading your book (non-stop the same day!) that I then ordered confirmed my persistent intuition that my painful symptoms were not "all in my head," as some practitioners who did not know what to say had told me.
By the way, it is rare to find a healthcare professional who can say: "I don't know."
For myself and my professional practice, your book, Mr. Montaud, finally opens up concrete avenues for me.
I found a topic that is very little addressed in medical literature and which I believe is crucial: that of oral breathing and primary swallowing, for which the real success of classical rehabilitation often leaves me at least doubtful...
I am therefore looking forward to (starting next week!) this new approach, fully aware that it is not limited to a passive technique but requires my full and active involvement.
I sincerely hope that my next message on this site will encourage those who doubt and those who suffer.
Thank you for writing this book!
Best regards.
