Always having jaw pain, headaches, and trouble chewing isn’t just about feeling bad physically—it also makes it tough to do normal stuff and takes away from your quality of life. Many of our clients have faced frustration and disappointment after trying various treatments that only provide temporary relief, feeling as though their unique needs and underlying issues are being overlooked.

Jaw and TMJ Disorder

The Struggle with Jaw and TMJ Disorders

Lots of people with TMJ disorders have tried out different treatments, like painkillers, mouthguards, and even surgery, but they usually don’t give long-term relief. They’ve seen many doctors who only deal with one issue, not seeing how everything is connected. This way of treating things in bits and pieces just keeps them stuck in a cycle of pain and makes them doubt they’ll ever find a real fix.

My jaw pain started to really bother me, especially when chewing. It got so bad last week that I could barely open my mouth. I went to my dentist, who told me it was inflammation and suggested stretches and ibuprofen. I decided to visit Stephen at The Oak Practice for more help. When I saw Stephen, I told him about the constant pain in my jaw and my difficulty chewing. He listened carefully and focused on the muscles around my jaw to release the tension. Stephen's help really turned things around for me. After a few appointments, the pain got better, and I could chew my food without any trouble. I also noticed that my overall stability and comfort improved. Thanks to Stephen's expertise at The Oak Practice, my jaw pain is now under control, and I feel much better in my daily life. This experience has been transformative, helping me return to my routine without the constant worry of jaw pain.

I've been struggling with strong jaw pain for weeks now, making my days really uncomfortable. Last week was the worst, and I even felt a weird sensation in my head. I knew I needed help, so I went to see Stephen at The Oak Practice. At my appointment, I explained to Stephen how my jaw pain was affecting my daily life. He listened carefully and focused on relieving the tension in my jaw muscles. Stephen also adjusted my neck to help with the alignment. After the session, I felt a bit tired and had a funny feeling in my head, but my jaw already felt a bit better. Stephen prescribed zinc, which I started taking in the evenings. Over the next few weeks, I noticed a significant improvement. The pain was reducing, and I felt more comfortable overall. Thanks to Stephen's know-how at The Oak Practice, my jaw pain is finally under control. The treatment has changed things a lot, so now I can go about my day without always feeling uncomfortable. I'm really grateful for Stephen's assistance with this issue.

Recently, I’ve been dealing with severe jaw pain that started after a dental procedure left me with an infection. The constant pain made it hard to sleep and affected my daily life. Desperate for relief, I decided to visit Stephen at The Oak Practice. When I met with Stephen, I shared my struggles with the persistent jaw pain and how it was impacting me. He listened and immediately focused on easing the tension in my jaw. Stephen also worked on aligning my neck and gave me exercises to help with the pain. After the first session, I felt some improvement. Stephen recommended taking zinc, which I started immediately. In the following weeks, the pain in my jaw slowly got better. I started sleeping more soundly, and I could manage my day without feeling uncomfortable all the time. Thanks to Stephen's help, my jaw pain has decreased a lot. The treatment has really changed things, letting me go back to my usual routine with a lot less discomfort. I'm so grateful for Stephen's assistance in helping me feel like myself again.

Frequently Asked Questions

At your first session at The Oak Practice, we’ll do a detailed check-up to understand your exact condition and symptoms. We’ll discuss your medical history, lifestyle, and any treatments you’ve tried before. We’ll also do a physical examination of your body to see where you feel tense or not in the right position. After this, we’ll make a plan personalised for you and what you need to feel better.

The time it takes to see improvements can vary from person to person and how serious the condition is. Some folks feel better after a few sessions, but for others, it might take longer. Our approach is all about giving you relief that kicks in fast and keeps getting better by treating the root of your symptoms.

Our treatments are made to be as easy as they can be. Even though some methods might make you feel a little uncomfortable, we make sure they fit what you can handle. We prioritise your comfort and will adjust treatments as needed to ensure you feel at ease throughout the process.

The cost changes based on how many sessions you’ll have and what kind they are. The first appointment costs differently, and we’ll tell you more about the prices for the next ones when you come in for your first visit. Whilst more expensive than average therapists, we don’t expect you to need to come back for repeat visits once your problem is resolved. We strive to make our treatments long lasting yet accessible and can discuss various payment options with you if needed.

Most treatments have minimal side effects, but some clients may experience mild soreness or discomfort after a session. These effects are typically short-lived and should subside within a day or two. We will discuss any potential side effects with you before beginning treatment and provide guidance on how to manage them if they occur.

Before your initial appointment, wear clothes that are comfortable for moving around. Bring any medical papers or details about treatments you’ve had before. It’s also useful to jot down your symptoms and any questions about the treatment process. Doing these things will help us make sure your session is just right for you and gives us all the info we need.
