TMJ

Temporomandibular Joint Disorder Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is characterized by pain caused by the joints between the upper and lower jaws, often manipulating itself in pain all throughout the head, from headaches, ear problems, jaw problems, and neck pain to throat, teeth, mouth, and eye discomfort. Chiropractic treatment has proven extremely effective for this painful condition, especially when traditional methods of pain management prove ineffective, such as hot and cold packs, anti-inflammatory drugs, or wearing a mouth guard at night. A chiropractor can help your TMJ pain and even avoid surgery by correcting the misalignment of your spine and nervous system; this is a great option alone or in conjunction with other treatments to reduce pain and prevent future pain as well.
