Can Chiropractic Care Help with TMJ Pain? Here’s What You Need to Know

If you’ve ever dealt with jaw pain, clicking, or tightness when chewing or talking, you might be familiar with TMJ disorder — short for temporomandibular joint disorder. It can be frustrating, painful, and even affect your sleep or daily routine. But what many people don’t realize is that chiropractic care can actually help.


At Revive Chiropractic in Fitchburg, WI, we see patients all the time who are surprised at how much relief they can get — without relying on medications or invasive treatments.


What Is TMJ Disorder, Exactly?

Your temporomandibular joints connect your jawbone to your skull — and they do a lot of work. You use them to speak, eat, yawn, and even express emotion. TMJ disorder happens when those joints aren’t working the way they should.

Common symptoms include:

  • Jaw pain or stiffness

  • Clicking or popping sounds

  • Headaches

  • Earaches or pressure

  • Pain while chewing

  • Locking of the jaw


How Chiropractic Can Help TMJ

When the alignment of the spine — especially the neck and upper back — is off, it can lead to tension throughout the surrounding muscles, including those that affect your jaw.

At Revive Chiropractic, we take a whole-body approach to treating TMJ pain. That means:

  • Gentle adjustments using our ProAdjuster 360 to reduce tension and improve alignment

  • Manual techniques, when appropriate, to improve joint function

  • Muscle therapy and soft tissue work to release tightness around the jaw and neck

  • Additional treatments like infrared sauna or EMS therapy to support recovery and reduce inflammation

We customize care to your comfort level — especially for jaw-related issues where gentle, precise adjustments make a big difference.
