TMJ Pain also known as Jaw pain or most commonly known as 'temporomandibular joint' pain is a disorder of the jaw joint which can lead to facial pain, inflammation, sinus issues, pain and compromised movement of the jaw joint and the surrounding muscles.

The temporomandibular joint or TMJ acts like a sliding hinge, connecting your jawbone to your skull. Dysfunction can lead to pain and discomfort, headaches and even migraines!

Jaw pain may cause difficulty chewing, clicking and locking of the jaw joint are some of the symptoms.

Common treatments include massage, myotherapy, physiotherapy and osteopathy.

How MyoActive can help TMJ?

When muscles become tight, they go into spasm which can lead into TMJ pain. Tight muscles in the jaw can refer into the neck and sometimes even the ear and surrounding muscles, also known as “referred pain".

MyoActive focuses on detecting and deactivating trigger points in the muscular system, which eliminates muscle tension and painful referral of pain in other areas of the body.

MyoActive therapists aim to prevent musculoskeletal pain from coming back through the following methods:

  • Manual Therapy techniques - soft tissue and deep tissue massages to improve blood flow and circulation

  • Stretching and Strengthening exercises to support the jaw, neck and postural muscles.

  • Functional cupping to improve blood flow and circulation through different layers of tissue.

  • Dry needling the TMJ and surrounding muscles to alleviate pain.

  • Internal pterygoid release, going in through the mouth with a glove relieving deep muscular pain.

  • Exercise Videos to Future-Proof Your Body.
