At Body Restoration, we believe that education is principal. Our clinicians will provide you with a thorough understanding of your condition including an explanation of the anatomy of the jaw, contributing factors, and potential triggers of TMD. You may receive manual therapy, hands-on techniques such as myofascial release and joint mobilization to alleviate muscle tension, improve joint mobility, and reduce pain in the jaw and surrounding areas. Therapeutic modalities (heat, ice, electrical stimulation, dry needling, low level laser therapy, Graston Technique) may be used to supplement treatment to manage pain, reduce inflammation, and promote tissue healing. A personalized exercise program will be provided consisting of exercises to improve the strength, flexibility, and coordination of the jaw muscles and adjacent structures. Our therapists may provide guidance on proper posture during daily activities and recommend ergonomic modifications to reduce strain on the jaw and neck muscles. You may receive tips on behavioural strategies and self-care techniques to reinforce the effects of treatment and promote long-term management of TMD. Regular follow-up appointments allow our therapists to monitor your progress, adjust treatment as needed, and provide ongoing support to help you achieve optimal outcomes.
