TMJ Dysfunction
Expert Relief for TMJ and Jaw Pain
We use targeted manual therapy and muscle retraining to calm the jaw joint and fix the mechanical flaws causing the strain, getting you back to pain-free movement, like eating and speaking without constant discomfort. Our goal is to balance the structures of your head and neck to provide long-term relief from tension.
Symptoms of TMJ Dysfunction
TMJ issues can manifest in several ways, often affecting your ability to perform simple daily tasks. We evaluate the movement of your jaw to find the exact cause of your symptoms.
Clicking or Popping: Addressing the disc displacement within the jaw joint.
Jaw Locking: Restoring the full range of motion so you can open and close your mouth easily.
Facial Pain: Reducing the muscle tension in the cheeks and temples that causes soreness.
Ear Pressure: Managing the inflammation that can lead to feelings of ear fullness or ringing.
Specialized Manual Therapy
We utilize advanced manual therapy techniques to release tension in the masseter and temporal muscles. These hands-on methods help improve joint mobilization and reduce the frequency of painful jaw clicking or locking. Specifically, you will experience improved blood flow and decreased inflammation around the temporomandibular joint.
Neuromuscular Re-education
Effective TMJ recovery involves retraining the muscles of the jaw and neck to work in proper coordination. We guide you through targeted exercises designed to stabilize the joint and correct posture-related strain. This structured approach ensures that your jaw remains properly aligned during essential activities like speaking and chewing
