What is TMJ dysfunction?
If you have ever suffered from TMJ dysfunction, it’s likely you won’t forget the pain and discomfort that goes with it. Symptoms vary from an audible jaw joint – clicking or popping to tinnitus, a painful or tired sensation in the face. Usually headaches, eye discomfort, neck, shoulder & back pain are experienced, sometimes with numbness and tingling in the hands and/ or fingers.
Who would likely be affected with of TMJ Dysfunction?
If you had a trauma, whiplash or blow to the head, clench or grind your teeth (usually under times of stress). Possibly you have a foreward head posture, arthritis or other internal degeneration of the jaw joint. Often sleeping on your stomach can create the jaw to sway to the side overextending the ligaments.
How can I help your TMJ dysfunction?
Using advanced myofacia release, trigger point and massage therapies, specific techniques are applied to the back, neck, feet and head. A small amount of intraoral work with my gloved hand is needed to provide a relaxing, non evasive and long lasting relief to TMJ dysfunction suffers.
It really is an all over body workout, giving a huge release of excessive muscle tension throughout your body. You will feel lighter, more mobile and your jaw pain will begin to diminish. It is such an effective treatment releasing muscle tension throughout, that I would recommend to people with only a few TMJ dysfunction symptoms.
How many TMJ therapy treatments will I need to feel better?
First appointment is 75 minutes long. This includes a detailed consultation, an examination. This enables me to create a bespoke treatment, aimed at alleviating your most severest area of discomfort. A second follow up appointment 2-3 weeks later is advised to achieve the maximum effect. I expect some of the symptoms will have returned, but usually not as bad as at your first appointment.
Stretching and other exercises will be given and this will enhance the TMJ therapy I give to bring about an effective and long lasting result. There maybe other self care ideas advised to supplement the treatment . Most people will find after four or five treatments their symptoms have significantly improved.
With the continuation of stretches & exercises performed at home, I would expect maintenance treatments only be needed once or twice a year.
I may suggest other self care ideas advised to supplement the treatment.
Testimonies for TMJ Therapy.
I would highly recommend Julie.
Originally I went to see Julie to help with regular headaches and Julie identified TMJ treatment as the best option which has been great.
Julie is extremely knowledgeable and genuinely passionate about helping.
Having experienced multiple treatments with Julie, I would highly recommend. Tim. January 2023I found Julie when I was on day 8 of a migraine. All medication was useless, I’d had physiotherapy through the GP for my neck and shoulder pain and I’d spent hundreds on a chiropractor who only gave me a short term fix. I had also seen the consultant about my jaw pain, who told me it wasn’t bad enough for surgery and sent me on my way with two exercises to do. I’d never heard of TMJ and the consultant didn’t suggest it. I was ready to try anything at this point! The day after my appt with Julie, I was free of migraine pain, and occurrences have now decreased dramatically. She also gave me pressure points and exercises I could do myself at home that would relieve pain too which has been amazing when I feel the pain start to come on. Would highly recommend if you suffer with jaw pain that then feeds into neck and shoulder pain, and migraines. Laura. January 2023
Thank you Julie for my TMJ treatments and also the plantar fasciitis advice. The head massages at the end of the massage is my favourite part!I’ve had multiple TMJ treatments with Julie and found them hugely beneficial. I always feel very relaxed and a release in my jaw tension after every treatment.
Julie is really knowledgeable about how pain distributes around the body and the exercises & self-massage she has recommended have helped me manage in between treatments. Katy. November 2022
I would highly recommend Julie to anyone who suffers with jaw/neck pain and headachesI had a TMJ consultation and massage with Julie and I cannot express how grateful I am. She is very thorough in explaining everything and how the whole body links in pain. The whole body massage was really lovely and highlighted some areas of tension. After the appointment I felt instant relief from my symptoms. Julie also gave me some exercises to do at home to help. I highly recommend Julie. Kelly. November 2022
