Jaw Physiotherapy (TMJ Disorders)
Helping You Move, Speak, and Eat with Comfort Again
Jaw pain and dysfunction can affect more than just your mouth — it can impact how you eat, speak, sleep, and go about your daily life. This is often related to the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), which connects the jaw to the skull and plays a vital role in everyday movement.
At PhysioRoots, we offer physiotherapy for a range of TMJ-related issues, helping people reduce pain, improve jaw movement, and manage related symptoms like headaches or neck tension.
Relieving muscle tension
Targeting the jaw, face, neck, and shoulders to ease pain.
Improving joint mobility
Reducing stiffness and restoring smooth jaw movement.
Correcting posture
Addressing posture that contributes to TMJ dysfunction.
Relaxation techniques
Stress management and exercises to reduce clenching or grinding.
Education & self-care
Guidance on habits, jaw use, and home care strategies.
Collaboration with specialists
Working alongside dentists or other healthcare providers.
We treat
Jaw pain, tightness, clicking, locking, chewing pain, bruxism, headaches, ear discomfort, and post-dental trauma.
