TMJ Treatment

Are you suffering from jaw pain, headaches, or discomfort while chewing? These could be signs of a temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder. At Spectrum Physiotherapy, we specialize in effective TMJ treatment to help you regain comfort and function in your jaw.

What is TMJ Disorder?

TMJ disorder affects the joint that connects your jawbone to your skull, leading to pain, stiffness, and limited movement. This condition can be caused by various factors, including stress, teeth grinding, or injury. Without proper treatment, TMJ can significantly impact your quality of life.

Comprehensive TMJ Treatment at Spectrum Physiotherapy

At Spectrum Physiotherapy, we specialize in providing effective and personalized TMJ treatment plans tailored to your specific needs. Our experienced physiotherapists work closely with you to understand the root cause of your TMJ disorder and develop a treatment strategy that focuses on relieving pain, improving joint function, and preventing further issues.

Our Approach to TMJ Treatment

  • Detailed Assessment

    Our first step is a thorough assessment of your TMJ to identify the underlying causes of your symptoms. This includes evaluating your posture, jaw alignment, and any contributing factors like teeth grinding or stress.

  • Manual TherapyTreatment Plans

    Our physiotherapists use hands-on techniques to alleviate muscle tension, improve joint mobility, and reduce pain. This may involve gentle stretching, soft tissue massage, and mobilization of the TMJ.

  • Therapeutic Exercises

    We design a customized exercise program to strengthen the muscles around the TMJ, improve flexibility, and enhance overall jaw function. These exercises help in restoring normal movement and reducing the strain on your jaw.

  • Posture Correction

    Poor posture can contribute to TMJ disorders. We provide guidance on maintaining proper posture and ergonomic adjustments to prevent future issues and support overall spinal health.

  • Patient Education

    Understanding your condition is key to effective treatment. We educate you on self-care techniques, including relaxation exercises and tips for managing stress, which can exacerbate TMJ symptoms.
