Are You Suffering From TMJ In East Islip, NY?

For those suffering from TMJ Pain, which is pain around the jaw, finding effective treatment can be challenging. Many individuals may have already sought help from alternative sources to that of physical therapy due to the less common nature of the condition compared to other issues. Common attempts at relief include visits to the dentist, TMJ specialists, or neurologists, but these efforts often do not provide long-term solutions.

Patients who come in for TMJ pain typically report significant tightness and discomfort along the jaw, especially when opening or closing the mouth or chewing. This discomfort can be so severe that it disrupts sleep, leading to teeth grinding, headaches, or neck pain.

The approach to treating TMJ pain involves a comprehensive, whole-body evaluation to identify the underlying cause of the pain. As a manual therapist, the focus is on addressing the root cause, whether it originates inside or outside the mouth, from the neck, or even the cranium. By targeting these different areas, the treatment has successfully relieved pain for many clients over the years.
