What is TMJ Therapy?
TMJ therapy, or Temporomandibular Joint therapy, focuses on addressing issues with the jaw joint and surrounding muscles. It can help alleviate jaw pain, discomfort, and improve overall jaw function through targeted treatments and exercises. Common symptoms of TMJ disorders include jaw pain, clicking or popping sounds when opening or closing the mouth, headaches, and difficulty chewing. Our TMJ therapy aims to identify and address these symptoms for effective relief.
