TMJ Relief with Chiropractic Care | Chiropractor for TMJ in Oviedo, FL
Hi, I’m Dr. Eric Janowitz with Synergy, and I’m thrilled to welcome you to our practice. Thank you for choosing us to address your TMJ issues. We’ve had the privilege of collaborating with some of the top oral healthcare providers in the area to co-manage TMJ disorders effectively.
Our Chiropractic Approach to TMJ
While your oral healthcare provider may focus on treatments like splints or other intraoral therapies, our chiropractic approach complements these treatments by addressing the surrounding tissues. We evaluate and treat the muscles involved in mastication and the joint itself, but we also pay close attention to the spine—an often overlooked factor in TMJ disorders.
The Connection Between the Spine and TMJ
The body functions under the control of the brain, which communicates through the spinal cord and out to the nerves. While these nerves can affect your back and extend to your legs and arms, the nerves in your neck play a crucial role in influencing the jaw muscles. Research indicates that misalignments in the neck can adversely impact TMJ conditions. Therefore, addressing these misalignments is essential to provide comprehensive care for TMJ issues.
Today’s Focused Appointment
Today, we will conduct a focused examination not only on your TMJ but also on your overall spine health to identify any other potential health issues. This holistic approach often leads to additional health benefits that you may not have anticipated. Our goal is to alleviate stress on the spine and the jaw muscles by ensuring proper alignment and working synergistically with your oral healthcare provider.
Again, thank you for entrusting us with your care. Your doctor will be with you shortly to begin your treatment. We are committed to ensuring that your experience with us is both healing and transformative. Welcome to Synergy Oviedo Chiropractic, where we believe in treating the whole person, not just the symptoms.
