What is TMJ Therapy?
TMJ (Temporomandibular Joint) therapy is a specialized area of physiotherapy that focuses on the assessment and treatment of disorders affecting the jaw joint and surrounding muscles. At Haas Physical Therapy, our skilled physiotherapist has extensive experience in helping individuals who suffer from TMJ-related pain and discomfort. Haas Physical Therapy is proud to now offer TMJ (TMD) Therapy to the Regina area.
How Does TMJ
Dysfuction Present?
TMJ disorders can manifest in various ways, including jaw pain, difficulty in opening or closing the mouth, clicking or popping sounds when moving the jaw, headaches, and even neck and shoulder pain. Our approach to TMJ therapy begins with a thorough evaluation to pinpoint the underlying causes of these symptoms. We consider factors such as posture, muscle imbalances, joint function, and the patient's overall health to develop a personalized treatment plan.
What To Expect
Treatment typically includes a combination of manual therapy techniques, exercises to improve jaw and neck muscle strength and flexibility, and education on lifestyle modifications. Our physiotherapist works closely with patients to alleviate pain, restore normal jaw function, and prevent recurrence. By addressing the root causes of TMJ disorders and tailoring treatments to individual needs, we aim to improve the quality of life for those struggling with jaw pain and related issues. If you're seeking effective TMJ therapy, Haas Physical Therapy is here to provide expert care and support.
