Temporomandibular joint disorders (TMD) are complex problems related to the jaw joint.

These conditions may be the result of several factors, including trauma (such as a car accident, a blow to the jaw, or a fall on the chin) and overuse (such as persistent clenching of the jaw). Most individuals with TMD also suffer from neck pain, so assessment and treatment of the neck could be an integral part of your treatment.

Treatment can include manual therapy (joint mobilization, massage, soft tissue stretching), intramuscular stimulation (IMS) to the jaw and neck musculature, exercise prescription and pain-reducing modalities
