When to get help and how acupuncture may support TMJ issues
If your TMJ symptoms meet any of these conditions, it’s worth getting a professional assessment:
• Pain lasting more than a week
• Jaw opening becomes very limited (like only one finger wide)
• Jaw suddenly locks open or closed
• Pain radiates to the head, neck, or shoulders
• Difficulty eating or speaking
TMJ treatment typically includes lifestyle modification, physical therapy, dental assessment, and sometimes medical management.
Acupuncture is also commonly used to help:
• relax overactive jaw and facial muscles
• reduce tension around the TMJ
• improve local blood flow
• support better jaw movement
At TWO HEALTH ACUPUNCTURE, TMJ care is one of our clinical focuses.
If you’ve been experiencing persistent jaw discomfort, you’re welcome to book a session with Tina for an assessment and treatment plan tailored to you.
