In-Depth Jaw Therapy
In jaw therapy, we treat functional disorders of the masticatory system, also known as Craniomandibular Dysfunction (CMD). Typical symptoms include jaw pain, headaches, limited mouth opening, or clicking noises when chewing. At our practice in Zurich Altstetten, we first thoroughly analyze the ailments. The treatment includes manual techniques to mobilize the jaw joint, relax the masticatory muscles, and normalize movement patterns. We often combine jaw therapy with osteopathy or physiotherapy for optimal results. We create personalized exercise programs so you can actively contribute to your recovery at home. Schedule an appointment at our BodyLab and free yourself from jaw discomfort.
