Scottsdale TMJ Treatment for Jaw Pain & Headaches
If your jaw clicks, aches, or locks, or you wake up with headaches from clenching, you may have TMJ dysfunction. Arizona Pain & Posture, LLC at 14555 N Scottsdale Rd, Suite 120 in Scottsdale, AZ offers drug-free TMJ treatment that relaxes the jaw and corrects the posture and nerve tension behind it.
How TMJ Problems Develop
The temporomandibular joints work every time you talk, chew, or swallow. Stress-related clenching, teeth grinding, poor head and neck posture, dental changes, and past injuries such as whiplash can strain these joints and the surrounding muscles. Because the nerves of the jaw, face, and neck are connected, irritation in one area often spreads, leading to facial pain, earaches, and headaches.
Our TMJ Treatment Approach
Treatment starts with an evaluation of your jaw motion, neck alignment, and posture. From there, Dr. Marc Bonacci uses RegenAlign: The Bonacci Method of Regenerative Alignment™, a gentle technique that frees compromised nerves by aligning muscles, connective tissue, nerves, and joints. Our manual therapy team also provides focused TMJ therapy to release tight chewing muscles.
- Gentle release of jaw, neck, and facial muscles
- Alignment of the neck and upper spine
- Nerve tension release
- Jaw and posture exercises for home
- Stress-management and sleep guidance
Most patients need 4 to 12 sessions for lasting stability.
Whole-Body Care for Lasting Relief
TMJ symptoms often improve faster when posture and stress are addressed too. Ask about therapeutic massage, physical therapy, and our chiropractic care. We are happy to coordinate with your dentist when needed.
