TMJ Jaw Pain

TMJ Jaw Pain is usually caused by a trauma, dislocation of the jaw joint, dislocation of the cushioning disc in the joint or a chronic muscle tension in the vicinity. It is disorder in the joint of the jaw joint, called the TemporoMmandibular Joint. Frequently individuals experiencing excessive popping and clicking in their jaw, will get pain from time to time as well. This can be exacerbated by clenching or grinding at night.

We work with alleviating this jaw pain primarily through muscle work, and assisting our client in finding postural patterns that are making the tension patterns worse. The many muscles which attach to the jaw can be softened through massage, hydrotherapy and stretching. To see the postural help and some of the techniques, please see our Pain Relief for TMJ Page.
