TMJ and Vertigo

Jacobo physical therapy clinics treat a variety of conditions related to TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disorders and vertigo. Here are some common ones:

TMJ Conditions:

  1. Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction (TMJD): Pain and dysfunction in the jaw joint and muscles controlling jaw movement.
  2. Bruxism: Teeth grinding or clenching that can lead to TMJ pain.
  3. Jaw Dislocation: Displacement of the jaw joint, causing pain and difficulty in movement.
  4. Arthritis: Inflammation of the TMJ, leading to pain and stiffness.
  5. Myofascial Pain Syndrome: Chronic pain in the muscles around the TMJ.

Vertigo Conditions:

  1. Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV): Brief episodes of dizziness related to changes in head position.
  2. Vestibular Neuritis: Inflammation of the vestibular nerve, leading to dizziness and balance issues.
  3. Labyrinthitis: Inflammation of the inner ear, causing vertigo and hearing loss.
  4. Meniere’s Disease: A disorder of the inner ear causing severe dizziness, ringing in the ears, and hearing loss.
  5. Vestibular Migraine: Migraines that cause dizziness and balance problems.
  6. Post-Concussion Syndrome: Persistent dizziness and balance issues following a concussion.
  7. Unilateral or Bilateral Vestibular Hypofunction: Reduced function of the vestibular system on one or both sides, leading to balance problems.

These conditions are often treated with specialized exercises and techniques to improve jaw function, reduce dizziness, and enhance overall vestibular function.
