Numerous physical therapy treatments are effective for managing headaches and TMD. Symptoms will vary between patients, thus, treatment programs must be individualized to address each patient’s needs. We will work with dentists and doctors to ensure that the patient receives the best care and recovery possible.
Your physical therapist will assess the range and quality of motion at your neck, your upper back, and your jaw (your temporomandibular joint) along with your strength and posture. Goals for treatment include to reduce pain and muscle spasms, improve inflammation, increase range of motion, improve posture, and increase cervical and jaw mobility. Prevention and treatment of headaches and TMD includes therapeutic exercise, postural training, myofascial release, stretching, joint mobilization, and ultrasound.
You guys are awesome! Thanks so much for all you have done. I can tell you really care about what you do by the way you treat people and talk to them like regular people and just a patient. I’ll miss you a lot. It is nice to have my shoulder back. God bless.
