TMJ Neck Pain

    For Patients

    TMJ Neck Pain Relief Using Specialized Treatment

    Neck pain can impact your comfort, mobility, and quality of life. Often, it stems from issues like TMJ dysfunction, which causes tension and misalignment in the jaw and surrounding muscles. Specialized therapy can address these root causes, relieving pain and restoring mobility.

    How TMJ Therapy Addresses Neck Pain

    TMJ dysfunction, including jaw misalignment, muscle tension, or teeth grinding, can radiate pain into the neck and shoulders. This strain often triggers chronic discomfort and reduces your range of motion. Poor posture and clenching can further exacerbate neck pain, leading to persistent tension.

    Signs Your Neck Pain May Be TMJ-Related

    Eye pain caused by TMJ can manifest in several ways, such as:

    • Persistent tension or stiffness in the neck
    • Pain radiating from the jaw to the shoulders
    • Limited range of motion
    • Headaches originating at the base of the skull
    • Jaw discomfort or clicking sounds when moving the jaw

    Root Causes of TMJ-Related Neck Pain

    • Jaw Misalignment: Creates strain on neck and shoulder muscles.
    • Muscle Tension: Chronic clenching or grinding tightens jaw and neck muscles.
    • Poor Posture: Forward head posture strains the neck and upper back.
    • Stress and Bruxism: Lead to persistent tension and pain.
