Jaw Muscle Exercises and Physiotherapy

for Facial Pain

Specific jaw muscle exercises and physiotherapy targeting the masticatory muscles and cervical spine reduce TMD pain and improve jaw mobility.

How it works

Jaw exercises reduce masseter and temporalis muscle tension, normalise condylar movement, and improve neuromuscular control of the temporomandibular joint. Cervical treatment addresses the cervicogenic headache component.

What to watch for

Physiotherapy for TMD requires a therapist experienced in craniomandibular conditions. Not all physiotherapists are trained in this area. Most effective as part of a multidisciplinary TMD programme.
