Who should I see for my jaw challenges? TMJ conditions are challenging in nature to diagnose, treat and maintain. Often times, the first choice is to see your dentist for an assessment especially if it is affecting your bite or teeth are painful. Since many cases are due to dental issues it is a great place to start. Some solutions may be fillings for cavities, some removal of teeth, a bite guard to prevent extra pressure or much more options. However, for the physical aspect of muscular pains and joint motion challenges there are chiropractors that know how to work with the jaw if they are trained in this treatment as well as some massage therapists, naturopaths and physiotherapists. TMJ work does require some extra training and experience as it is a tender and delicate joint and the most extreme cases may need specialist assessments as well. A starting point is to see your dentist and for further information a knowledgeable chiropractor, physiotherapist, massage therapist or naturopath would likely be your second stop!

Causes of Jaw Pain Jaw pain has many sources and

Causes of Jaw Pain Jaw pain has many sources and it often times comes with ongoing stress on the joint over time. Most cases are repetitive stress based although some can be due to traumatic reasons as well. Here is a list of causes that are not everything that can lead to jaw pain: 😮Sinus Problems 😮 Cavity and Sensitivity in the teeth 😮 Long-term maintaining of an open mouth state (ie: dental surgery or procedures) 😮 Chronic grinding and clenching teeth 😮 Traumatic Injury (sport-specific, car accident, falls, contact sports, etc) 😮 Arthritis in the joint 😮 Heart attack (often accompanied with other symptoms) 😮 Inflammatory conditions (Rheumatoid Arthritis, autoimmune disease, etc) Every person's cause may be different but the most common cases from a Chiropractic office looks to be after dental procedures, chronic stress and teeth grinding or trauma related. By no means, does this article suggest that dental procedures should not be done. Dental procedures are critical for the maintenance of health, however, the ability to hold your mouth open for hours on end will strain and put stress on most of the muscles and ligaments in the mouth and it is advisable to be assessed for TMJ issues when it is safe to do so.

Carrying your little one around is hard work! Musc

Carrying your little one around is hard work! Muscles tighten up, joints get stuck, necks get sore, and posture starts to change. Chiropractic care can help ease the tension of muscles, and put movement back into those stuck joints. Typical complaints after baby comes along is that shoulders and neck become sore and tight, headaches increase due to posture changes and changed sleep patterns, and low back starts to ache from sitting. Dr. Jenine works with so many mom's and dad's to help ease these issues. She works on those tight muscles, adjusts the stuck joints, gives stretches to do at home to manage symptoms, and helps you recognize when more treatment may be needed. Moms and dads: Take some time to take care of you! #chiropractic #chiro #pregnancy #prenatal #postnatal #vancouvermama #healthypregnancy #vancouvermom #vancouverchiropractor #vancouverpregnancy #yvrmom #postnatalfitness #prenatalfitness #yvrchiropractor #pregnancyalignment #prenatalchiropractor #babycarrier #babymilestones #crawling #walking #pregnantmovement #childmilestones #pediatricchiropractor #pediatricmilestones #babydevelopment #crawlingmilestone #healthybaby #healthymom

There are a variety of movements that the TMJ can do but simply put the jaw's major function is to open and close to allow for talking and chewing. However, even to do this function the two joints have to work together and start by rotating to open the jaw and then shift forward (protrusion) in order to open wide enough to chew. On closing, the jaw must shift backwards (retrusion) and the rotate back to close. Any changes in this synchonized movement will cause the jaw to shift from side to side, possibly click, possibly get locked and possibly lead to pain. Here's a video that captures this really well from Functional Anatomy TMJ. https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=1&v=SCS4MiHJ5Xw&feature=emb_logo Click here to see the full blog: https://www.baselinewellness.ca/tmj-conditions-and-jaw-pain/ #rehabilitation #chiropractor #chiropractic #physiotherapy #physicaltherapy #officework #postnatal #prenatal #fitnessmotivation #vancouverchiropractor #physio #health #healthandwellness #wellness #healthy #vancity #vancitybuzz #vancouverhealth #adjustments #jawpain #vancouver #baselinehealthandwellness #TMJ #TMJD #jaw #health #RMT #RegisteredMassageTherapy

One of Dr. Jenine's goals is to help support comfortable baby wearing. If you are making baby wearing a part of your everyday life, it may be beneficially to have someone who understands carriers, the body, and ergonomics to check out the way your carrier is set up, and how your baby is seated within it. Sometimes a second set of eyes can see things that may be missed, that may allow you to have an even more enjoyable experience baby wearing. Dr. Jenine loves to help moms and dads with baby wearing. She understands that the benefits of wearing your child are tremendous, and wants you to have the best experience possible! Last week a client came in using a carrier that she wasn't perfectly happy with. The carrier felt loose to mom, and baby was sitting too low for her comfort. We like for baby to be sitting high enough for mom to kiss the top of the head. With a simple adjustment to the straps and a scoop to baby's hips, the baby ended up in the perfect position and mom was so happy and comfortable! Come in with your carrier to your chiropractic appointment, and Dr. Jenine will assess and make tiny changes to your set up if needed. Sometimes little adjustments go a long way! #chiropractic #chiro #pregnancy #prenatal #postnatal #vancouvermama #healthypregnancy #vancouvermom #vancouverchiropractor #vancouverpregnancy #yvrmom #postnatalfitness #prenatalfitness #yvrchiropractor #pregnancyalignment #prenatalchiropractor #babycarrier #babymilestones #crawling #walking #pregnantmovement #childmilestones #pediatricchiropractor #pediatricmilestones #babydevelopment #crawlingmilestone #healthybaby #healthymom
