Do you feel prolonged pain in your jaw? Trouble chewing or closing your mouth? Frequent headaches? A TMJ disorder could be the cause of your symptoms. With the help of our specialized physiotherapists, you can now get relief from pain and jaw immobility caused by TMJ.

The temporomandibular joint combines a hinge action with a sliding motion, a complex joint consisting of the two bones and a disc. In order to function correctly the joints on both sides of your jaw must be able to open in two phases. Problems with the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) can be frustrating, causing symptoms such as pain in the neck, shoulders or back, headaches or restrictive jaw movement. The cause of TMJ disorders are often unknown. It could be an injury, excessive dental work, teeth grinding, jaw clenching, stress causing muscle tension, or poor posture.
