Common questions

Do physiotherapists treat jaw pain?

Yes. Jaw (TMJ) pain is often linked to tight muscles in the jaw and neck, and we treat both together.

Is the treatment uncomfortable?

We work gently around the jaw and neck and check in with you throughout. You can ask us to stop at any time.

Should I also see my dentist?

If you grind your teeth or have tooth pain, it's worth seeing your dentist too. We're happy to work alongside them.
