Do you feel jaw pain while chewing or talking? Does your jaw click, lock, or feel stiff when opening your mouth? Are headaches or ear discomfort associated with jaw movement? Are you searching for a βphysiotherapist near meβ for persistent jaw pain? These symptoms may indicate TMJ dysfunction.
What Is TMJ Dysfunction?
Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) dysfunction affects the joint connecting the jaw to the skull. Teeth grinding, stress, poor posture, trauma, or muscle imbalance can strain this joint. It may cause jaw pain, clicking sounds, limited mouth opening, facial tension, and even neck discomfort.
How Physiotherapy Helps
Physiotherapy focuses on reducing muscle tension and restoring joint mobility. Treatment focuses on:
Gentle TMJ mobilisation techniques
Jaw muscle relaxation and stretching
Postural correction for head and neck
Strengthening stabilising jaw muscles
Stress management and habit correction guidance
What You Can Try at Home
Avoid excessive chewing or wide mouth opening, apply warm compresses to relax muscles, maintain upright posture, practice gentle jaw mobility exercises, and reduce teeth clenching habits.
For specialised care, Dr. Deepika Bansal β Physiotherapist in Balewadi, Wakad, Aundh, Pimple Saudagar provides personalised physiotherapy for TMJ dysfunction, helping relieve jaw pain and restore comfortable movement.
