Most people wouldn’t have guessed but jaw pain is the second most commonly occurring musculoskeletal condition (after chronic low back pain). And It results in pain and disability in approximately 12% of the US population.

TMJ stands for “temporomandibular joint”, otherwise known as a jaw joint. We have 2 TMJ’s -one on each side located just in front of our ears. Because the mandible (jaw)bone and a disc of fibrous tissue inside the joint influence each other’s movement, any problem here can create painful biting/chewing, popping and headaches.

EmPower Physical Therapy specializes in headache/TMD pain. Call today and let’s get you on the road to recovery!
