Abstract
It is well known that when the stomatognathic system is not in balance with the rest of the body, it interferes continuously with the static posture. This is actually the reason why most rehabilitation therapies’ results do not have lasting effects, ending up in what we all know as back-treatment. Therapists that work in the field of rehabilitation (physiotherapists, osteopaths, chiropractors, etc.) find themselves confronted with this problem day after day and often cannot reach conclusive lasting results. In the specific cases where the masticatory system hinders therapy, it is essential to counteract its negative effect. This is where B.E.D. (Body Equilibrium Device) comes into play. It is an oral device specifically designed to override the negative effect of the masticatory system on the static posture of the body. B.E.D. is a unique heat moldable, night-time use device that can be easily individualized by rehabilitation therapists themselves, according to the needs of each patient and is used to achieve an optimal and lasting global equilibrium. It is the only oral device, designed specifically for rehabilitation therapists, that allows obtaining definitive results that last over time, by allowing therapists to rebalance the muscle chains without negative interferences, reducing muscle tension and restoring neuromuscular balance.
