TMJ & Jaw Pain
ABOUT SERVICE
Specialist Care for Jaw Pain, Clicking, Headaches, and More
TMJ (temporomandibular joint) dysfunction is an often-overlooked issue that can cause a wide range of symptoms beyond just jaw pain. At Ratoath Physiotherapy, we offer expert assessment and treatment for TMJ-related conditions, led by Rory, our clinical specialist in this area.
Rory uses a unique, combined approach that blends manual therapy, cranial techniques, acupuncture, and biokinesiology to get to the root cause of your symptoms and provide long-lasting relief.
Common Symptoms of TMJ Dysfunction:
- Jaw pain or tightness
- Clicking, popping, or locking in the jaw
- Headaches or facial pain
- Teeth grinding (bruxism)
- Earache or pressure around the ear
- Neck and upper shoulder tension
- Difficulty chewing or opening the mouth fully
More Than Just a Jaw Problem
- Create imbalances in the head, neck, and spine
- Affect core stability and pelvic alignment
- Trigger recurring headaches and chronic neck pain
- Contribute to widespread tension throughout the muscular system
