How Chiropractic Care Can Help Relieve TMJ Dysfunction in Lutz FL

Do you suffer from jaw pain, clicking, or headaches that start near your temples? You may be experiencing TMJ dysfunction in Lutz FL — a condition that affects the temporomandibular joint, which connects your jaw to your skull.

At Full Life Chiropractic, Dr. Enrico Dolcecore and Dr. Allie Winters use natural, non-invasive chiropractic techniques to help restore balance to your jaw, neck, and spine for lasting relief.


What Is TMJ Dysfunction?

TMJ (temporomandibular joint) dysfunction occurs when the joint that allows your jaw to move becomes irritated, inflamed, or misaligned.

Common symptoms include:

  • Jaw pain or stiffness
  • Clicking or popping when opening your mouth
  • Headaches or migraines
  • Ear pain or ringing
  • Neck or shoulder tension

While TMJ dysfunction can stem from dental issues, stress, or trauma, spinal misalignments and muscle tension in the neck and upper back often play a major role in aggravating this condition.


How Chiropractic Care Helps with TMJ Dysfunction

At Full Life Chiropractic, Dr. Enrico Dolcecore and Dr. Allie Winters focus on identifying and correcting the root causes of TMJ pain. Chiropractic care for TMJ dysfunction may include:

1. Spinal and Jaw Adjustments

  • Gentle chiropractic adjustments help improve alignment in the neck, upper spine, and jaw, reducing pressure on nerves that influence jaw movement.

2. Muscle and Soft Tissue Therapy

  • Targeted muscle release techniques help relax tight jaw and neck muscles, relieving strain that contributes to TMJ tension.

3. Posture and Bite Alignment Support

  • Poor posture — especially forward head posture — can worsen TMJ dysfunction. Chiropractic care restores natural alignment, helping your jaw function properly.

4. Lifestyle and Stress Management Guidance

  • Chronic clenching or grinding due to stress can intensify TMJ pain. Our chiropractors provide personalized recommendations to reduce stress and support healing naturally.
