Suppose you’re dealing with jaw pain, popping or clicking when you chew, facial tightness, or tension headaches. In that case, you might be experiencing dysfunction of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) or related craniofacial structures. At Dosher Physical Therapy, we offer targeted therapy to address the root causes of TMJ pain and craniofacial discomfort, helping you regain normal function and feel better quickly.
Craniofacial therapy focuses on treating pain and dysfunction in the face, jaw, head, and upper neck. It is especially effective for addressing chronic tension, nerve irritation, and muscular imbalances that contribute to TMJ problems, migraines, or postural issues.
Our specialized approach at Dosher PT combines manual techniques with therapeutic exercises to reduce pain, improve joint mobility, and restore balance to the muscles around your jaw and face.
We use gentle, hands-on techniques to release tight muscles, mobilize the jaw joint, and reduce tension in the surrounding areas, including the neck and upper back.
Because posture and jaw alignment are closely linked, we assess and improve posture while teaching better breathing habits that reduce clenching and facial tension.
Customized exercises help improve jaw control, stability, and strength while preventing overuse or future strain.
We provide education and tools you can use at home to reduce flare-ups, manage symptoms, and protect your jaw during daily activities.
