TMJ Dysfuntion

Suffering from:

  • clicking or popping of jaw
  • intermittent or constant jaw pain
  • muscle tightness
  • impaired jaw mobility
  • headaches

TMJ dysfunction is usually caused by:

  • muscular imbalances
  • joint dysfunctions in your jaw, neck, back or shoulders

How do we treat TMJ?

We conduct a thorough examination to identify the exact cause or your TMJ dysfunction and then go over the cause with you, so you can better understand your condition.  We then use Active Release Technique to address any soft tissue restrictions and then correct any joint dysfunctions with Chiropractic adjustments.  After we have corrected the soft tissue and joint dysfunctions, we put you on a comprehensive in office and at home re-hab program to make sure that the condition does not come back.

Why does Soft Tissue pain linger?

Doesn't your body have the ability to heal itself? When you cut yourself, or break a bone, the body will mend it. So what about the injured area that is affecting you now? Why hasn't it healed and why does your pain still linger? Read more about the most common reasons.

Active Release

ART has been developed, refined, and patented by P. Michael Leahy, DC, CCSP. Dr. Leahy noticed that his patients' symptoms seemed to be related to changes in their soft tissue that could be felt by hand. By observing how muscles, fascia, tendons, ligaments and nerves responded to different types of work, Dr. Leahy was able to consistently resolve over 90% of his patients' problems. He now teaches and certifies health care providers all over the world to use ART. See the ART page for more details.
