Intervention: Occlusal Splint (OS).
Description: OS will be made of heat-cured acrylic by the same specialized dentist. These intraoral devices will be flate, rigid, will cover the entire dental arch, and will have the lowest possible height. The perimeter of the splint will have at least 11 dental contacts, light, symmetrical and pinpoint as possible. The patients will be instructed to use the splint every night during the study Two supervisions will be carried out 30 and 60 days after the use of the OS, in order to stabilize the contact points.

Intervention: Motor Imagery (MI).
Description: The participants will have to judge the laterality of different cervical images presented on the screen of a cell phone. The laterality task will be executed using an application called Recognize Neck, developed by the NOI group. The procedure will begin with a familiarization test with the Basic level followed by a laterality discrimination task. It will be performed using 20 images, with 5 seconds for each image, beginning with the Vanilla program and progressively increasing the difficulty using the Context and Abstract programs. The estimated time to complete the task will be about 10 minutes per session.
