Are you dealing with jaw pain, headaches, or difficulty chewing? These could be symptoms of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction. The TMJ, located on either side of your jaw, is responsible for allowing smooth jaw movement. When it becomes irritated or misaligned, the resulting dysfunction can cause chronic discomfort. At Elevated Chiropractic Solutions in Greenville, SC, I provide effective, gentle care to help relieve TMJ pain using chiropractic techniques and specialized myofascial therapies.
Understanding TMJ Dysfunction
TMJ dysfunction occurs when the joint connecting your jaw to your skull isn't functioning properly. This may happen due to:
Jaw misalignment
Injury or trauma to the jaw
Teeth grinding or clenching (bruxism)
Stress and tension in the surrounding muscles
Symptoms of TMJ dysfunction may include jaw clicking, facial pain, headaches, earaches, and neck pain. Without proper care, these issues can worsen and lead to long-term discomfort or reduced jaw mobility.
Chiropractic Care for TMJ Pain Relief
At Elevated Chiropractic Solutions, I take a holistic approach to TMJ pain, focusing on the relationship between the musculoskeletal system and the jaw. Often, TMJ dysfunction is linked to other issues such as neck or shoulder tension, poor posture, or jaw misalignment. My chiropractic care aims to restore balance in the body by aligning the spine, relieving tension, and reducing strain on the TMJ to provide long-lasting relief.
Graston Technique for TMJ Dysfunction
As a Graston Technique specialist, I use this advanced method of myofascial release to target tight or injured muscles around the TMJ. The Graston Technique is especially effective for individuals experiencing jaw pain due to stress or muscle tension. Using specialized instruments, I gently massage and release adhesions or scar tissue, promoting healing, improving circulation, and reducing inflammation in the affected area.
