TMJ Disorder Relief in Little Rock, AR

Jaw pain, clicking, or headaches from TMJ? We treat the root cause — not just the symptoms.

Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder affects the joint that connects your jaw to your skull. When it's inflamed, misaligned, or overworked, it can trigger jaw pain, facial tension, ear ringing, headaches, and neck stiffness — often all at once.

At Faulkenberry Chiropractic — Little Rock, we take a whole-person approach to TMJ. Because the jaw, upper neck, and cranial alignment are deeply connected, real relief starts with looking at the full picture.


Common Symptoms of TMJ Disorder

  • Jaw pain, tightness, or clicking when you open or close your mouth
  • Facial or temple pain
  • Frequent tension headaches or migraines
  • Ear pain, ringing, or a "full" feeling in the ears
  • Neck stiffness and upper back tension
  • Difficulty chewing or opening your mouth fully

How We Treat TMJ Disorder at Faulkenberry Chiropractic

🔹 Upper Cervical & Jaw Alignment
Gentle, precise adjustments to the upper neck and jaw restore proper joint mechanics and take pressure off the TMJ.

🔹 Soft Tissue & Trigger Point Therapy
Hands-on release of the masseter, temporalis, and neck muscles that clench and pull the jaw out of alignment.

🔹 Class IV Laser Therapy
Reduces inflammation in the joint capsule and speeds tissue healing — drug-free and painless.

🔹 Posture & Stress Correction
Forward-head posture and clenching are two of the biggest TMJ triggers. We correct the mechanics and teach you how to unload the jaw.
