TMJ issues rarely exist in isolation. Your care considers the jaw along with the neck, shoulders, breathing patterns, and the daily habits that load the joint and surrounding muscles.
Your plan is built around what actually sets your symptoms off, such as long computer days, frequent phone use, stress clenching, or chewing on one side.
The goal is to help you move and function with more comfort, not just chase symptoms.
TMJ rehab can help if your jaw symptoms are affecting your comfort, function, or focus day to day, including:
Your first visit starts with a detailed conversation about your symptoms, habits, and triggers. We look at how your jaw is moving, what motions provoke pain, and how your neck and upper body may be contributing. From there, your physiotherapist builds a plan that may include gentle hands-on treatment, movement retraining, and specific exercises to improve control and reduce irritation. You will also get clear strategies for day-to-day habits like chewing, posture, sleep positions, and managing clenching.
To make things easy, we will walk you through what to do between appointments, with realistic home exercises that fit your schedule. Follow-up visits focus on progress, adjusting the plan, and building tolerance for normal activities like eating a wider variety of foods or talking longer without flare-ups. If you have relevant notes, imaging reports, or a dental appliance, bring them along.
