TMJ Treatment

The temporomandibular joint connects the jaw to the skull and works with the muscles of the jaw, head, and neck. When it is irritated, patients often notice jaw pain, clicking, limited opening, or discomfort that carries into the face, ear, or neck. Our therapists examine the jaw alongside the neck and upper back, because restriction in one commonly involves the others, and treat what the examination finds using the same hands-on techniques used throughout the practice.

What to Expect

One-on-One Care, Built Around You

Your care begins with a one-on-one evaluation. Rather than focusing on the symptoms alone, we establish a cause and effect relationship through accurate palpation and assessment of the body, then build a rehabilitation program customized to your individual needs.
