The temporomandibular joint connects the temporal bone (the bone that forms the sides of the scull) with the mandible (the jaw bone). Every time we talk, chew, bite down, or swallow we put the TMJ to work. This condition produces pain in the muscles and joints of the jaw that can radiate to the face, neck, and head and even the shoulders. There also may be difficulty opening the mouth all the way, or clicking and popping noises when chewing, yawning, kissing or moving the joint.

Temporomandibular joint disorder, or TMJ, often begins as minor discomfort in the jaw muscles and can lead to more sever pain, headaches, hearing problems, and even pain while chewing and/or speaking. Some estimates claim that over 30 million people in the United States suffer from some type of TMJ pain, making it the second most common pain-causing muscular and skeletal condition, behind low-back pain.

TMJ massage in Dallas Texas is a very specialized form of massage therapy that can help TMJ sufferers by facilitating relaxation of the muscles associated with the jaw, while also easing total body tension and stress that might be increasing TMJ pain.
