Ease Jaw Pain, Improve Function, and Regain Comfort
Do you experience jaw pain, clicking, headaches, or difficulty chewing?
You might be dealing with TMD (Temporomandibular Disorder)—a condition affecting the TMJ (Temporomandibular Joint), the small but powerful joint that connects your jaw to your skull.
At New Age Therapies, we offer specialized physical therapy treatments to help relieve discomfort, improve jaw function, and restore your quality of life.
TMD refers to a group of conditions that cause pain and dysfunction in the jaw joint and surrounding muscles. It can be caused by stress, grinding or clenching teeth (bruxism), poor posture, injury, or joint degeneration.
Common symptoms include:
Jaw pain or tenderness
Clicking, popping, or grinding sounds in the jaw
Difficulty opening or closing the mouth
Locking of the jaw
Headaches or facial pain
Earaches or a sensation of fullness in the ears
Neck and shoulder pain
TMD can affect daily life, from eating and talking to sleeping and working. Fortunately, physical therapy can make a big difference—without the need for medication.
Why These Symptoms Shouldn’t Be Ignored
Ongoing jaw tension may lead to chronic pain, difficulty eating or speaking, poor sleep, and even changes in facial alignment.
Even mild TMD symptoms can worsen over time if left untreated.
Early care helps prevent long-term joint damage and reduces the need for invasive treatment.
Recurring or occasional pain is a sign your jaw is under stress—and needs attention.
How TMD Affects More Than Just Your Jaw
The TMJ is closely linked to the neck, shoulders, and head—so jaw issues often come with headaches, ear pressure, and upper back tension.
Poor posture, especially forward head position, adds strain to the joint.
By understanding these connections, we can treat both the jaw and the related areas causing or worsening your symptoms.
Everyday Habits That Can Make TMD Worse
Many everyday habits can unknowingly contribute to TMJ stress and dysfunction:
Jaw clenching
Poor desk posture
Frequent gum chewing
Favoring one side while eating.
At New Age Therapies, we help you identify and adjust these patterns.
Small changes in posture and daily routines can significantly reduce flare-ups and support long-term relief.
Our therapists take a whole-body, movement-based approach to treating TMJ dysfunction. We don’t just treat the jaw—we look at posture, muscle imbalances, and habits that may be contributing to your symptoms.
Your personalized TMD program may include:
Education on habits that support long-term relief (e.g., sleeping position, diet, posture)
Manual therapy to release tension in the jaw, neck, and facial muscles
Postural training to correct alignment and reduce strain
Jaw mobility exercises to improve function and reduce stiffness
Trigger point therapy for pain relief
Relaxation and breathing techniques to reduce clenching and stress
