TMJ

What we call TMJ, or jaw pain, is caused by the forward position of your head in relation to the rest of your body.  The muscles that should be allowing you to chew and talk are instead working overtime to hold your head up!  To relieve this pain, you must realign your body, re-educate the muscles and bring proper function back to the muscles that are hurting. Contact Pain Free Santa Fe to make an appointment for a free posture assessment so you can see for yourself how your alignment is causing the pain.  You can correct the alignment with posture therapy - simple exercises to retrain your muscles.
