Get Back to Life Without Headaches or Jaw Pain Holding You Back
Headaches and jaw pain can affect your ability to work, sleep, eat, exercise, and enjoy everyday life. Symptoms may include neck tension, facial pain, jaw clicking, difficulty chewing, or headaches that seem to keep coming back.
At Lonestar Physical Therapy & Sports Performance, we take the time to understand your symptoms and how they are affecting you. Your Doctor of Physical Therapy will evaluate your neck, jaw, mobility, strength, and movement to identify factors that may be contributing to your symptoms and create an individualized plan to help you feel and function better.
Understanding Headaches & TMJ Pain
Headaches and jaw pain can have many contributing factors. The muscles and joints of your neck and jaw work closely together, and limitations in mobility, muscle tension, or movement can contribute to symptoms in the head, face, neck, and jaw.
TMJ disorders affect the temporomandibular joint and surrounding muscles that allow you to open and close your mouth, chew, and speak. Your Doctor of Physical Therapy will assess your symptoms, neck and jaw mobility, muscle function, and movement to determine whether physical therapy is appropriate and develop a treatment plan based on your findings.
