TMJ dysfunction can cause jaw pain, clicking, and difficulty opening or closing the mouth. Our physiotherapists in Bradford use manual therapy, exercises, and relaxation strategies to improve jaw movement and reduce discomfort.
TMD (temporomandibular disorder) or TMJ dysfunction describes pain, stiffness, or clicking in the jaw joint, often making it hard to chew, yawn, or even talk comfortably. People in Bradford may notice headaches, ear pain, or neck pain that all trace back to jaw problems. Causes include injury, clenching or grinding teeth, stress, arthritis, or even posture issues. At Recharge Physiotherapy, we carefully assess your jaw, neck, and related muscles, and design a plan to reduce pain, restore movement, and support comfortable daily activity.
Tightness in the muscles around the jaw from clenching, grinding, or stress is a leading cause of TMD. We use manual therapy, gentle exercises, and relaxation strategies to ease tension and reduce pain.
An injury, arthritis, or uneven joint surfaces can make the jaw click, lock, or feel stiff. Our team helps restore proper joint movement and function using gentle mobilizations and education about safe jaw habits.
Poor posture and neck tension can worsen jaw pain and limit recovery. We address the entire region, teaching you how to improve your posture, relieve neck strain, and prevent recurrence.
If you are not sure why your jaw hurts, our physiotherapists complete a thorough assessment and explain your diagnosis and next steps clearly.
Leaving TMD untreated can lead to chronic pain, headaches, or limited jaw movement. At Recharge Physiotherapy, your plan combines hands-on therapy, guided exercise, and education to restore comfort and improve jaw control, no matter your daily needs.
