Do you find that you carry a lot of tension in your jaw? You may be experiencing TMJ dysfunction.
The temporomandibular joint acts like a sliding hinge and connects your jawbone to your skull on each side. When there is excessive strain on the TMJ, you may experience:
pain or tenderness of your jaw
aching pain in and around your ear
difficulty chewing or pain while chewing
aching facial pain
locking of the TMJ, making it difficult to open or close your mouth
headaches
Our RMT, Cyndi offers a treatment designed specifically to treat TMJ dysfunctions and headaches.
Focusing on massaging the upper back, pec’s, neck, face, scalp and TMJ area and sometimes may include massaging the muscles inside your mouth (optional), this treatment helps to reduce jaw pain and headaches while restoring balance in your muscles and increasing circulation.
This treatment will help your bodies posture, jaw pain, bruxism, whiplash and clenching. After addressing all the areas needed, the remaining time will be spend on the rest of your back. This type of treatment can be a game changer for those that carry a lot of tension in their jaw.
