Resumo

Temporomandibular disorder (TMD) is a complex and multifactorial disorder commonly associated with other conditions such as cervical spine disorders (ARMIJO-OLIVO et al., 2010). Although there is evidence of a correlation between TMD and neck disorders, treatment proposals include a local and direct approach. Since the etiology of TMD is multidimensional (MIETTINEN et al., 2017), the present study hypothesizes that a cervical and thoracic approach could reduce the signs and symptoms of TMD. Therefore, the objective of the present study is to evaluate the effects of a manual therapy protocol applied on the cervical and thoracic region on the signs and symptoms of TMD.
