At MetabolicSports we use Jaw tracking technology which can determine where the muscle fibres are at their optimal position which in turn translates into better strength, balance and Flexibility.
Maximise your abilities
The concept of a Neuromuscular Mouth Guard/Splint that allows athlete’s to maximize efficiency throughout the body with the perfect alignment of the lower jaw isn’t new! But, the Technology and Production of them is. Professional Athletes from various sporting body’s including NBA, Soccer, mixed Martial Arts, Boxing, Cycling, Rowing, Golf, Weight lifting, swimming and Major League Baseball have worn Neuromuscular Mouth Guards/Splints because they believe they can maximize their natural abilities such as endurance, recovery, O2 intake, reduction in Lactic acid build up, strength & flexibility. But the benefits are far more than just this.
Immediate Changes
We at MetabolicSports use several muscle testing techniques such as Muscle testing & Kinesiology and other similar type tests to show the immediate changes with and without the Neuromuscular mouth guards. HRV Monitors are also used by MetabolicSports to help show how the splints are effecting or rather controlling Hormones, Cortisol levels, adrenalin, Stress, recovery, Adaptability, Core Stability and Balance. HRV Monitors also show us Fitness levels, Parasympathetic and Sympathetic abilities as well as showing structural issues such as feet & pelvis. HRV also tells us Nutritional issues. The use of Acculiner Articulators to produce such splints help simulate the real movement of the jaw joint and is a very important part of the production technology.
Improve balancing issues
Metabolic Sport uses Chirodontics to help Balance ascending and descending issues and to help Stabilise the joint so that we capture the optimum position to get the most out of the Bite recorded.
Release tension & stress
Loss of VD ( Vertical Dimension ) is a major factor in the decompression of the joint or TMD ( Temporomandibular Dysfunction ) Grinding, Clenching and everyday wear of our natural dentition adds to the loss of VD which in turn also creates tightness of muscles. VD is restored using Neuromuscular mouth guards or splints which in turn puts the muscles in their ideal position by also using the latest in CBCT X-Ray showing Jaw Joint and at the same time AirWay in 3D. The NM mouthguard or splint not only replaces VD by capturing a NM bite and restores muscles to their original position, it also results in the jaw joint socket position that is more down and forward. This in turn opens the Airway and automatically releases tension/stress (Cortisol) in the joints and creating more space to let more oxygen into the lungs.
Increase CO2 Intake
By aligning the Lower jaw with the Neuromuscular Mouth Guard/Splint over the C1 & C2 vertebrae, which sit atop of the spinal column to connect the skull to the Spine, a clear path is created for O2 intake in turn reducing stress (cortisol), Inflammation in the gut and the Central nervous system and more to the point, the Neuromuscular system.
25 years Experience
There are many different ways to establish the right bite position and at MetabolicSport we have encapsulated 25 years experience in TMJ/TMD and Oral facial Orthopaedics/Orthodontics and Chirodontics, along with the latest technology and expertise to develop the optimum Power Bite position, in turn producing most outstanding, Professional Neuromuscular Sports guard in this country.
