How Do I Know That I'm Suffering From TMJ Disorder?

TMJ manifests with symptoms such as...

I was referred to Branden Glackin after being diagnosed with TMJ, which was causing sharp pain in my ear along with a feeling of fluid and dizziness. Once Brendan evaluated my symptoms, he determined the some of the issues were caused by spasms in my neck and shoulders related to the TMJ. Through his recommended treatment plan including dry needling and exercises, all my symptoms have been resolved. Thank you again! Great Job!

Started going to Dr. Glackin for my TMJ and I feel extremely confident that he will be able to help. He is very knowledgeable about all the muscles involved in TMJ and uses multiple methods to treat it. He explains everything in advance and constantly checks to make sure you’re comfortable. I already feel some relief and am excited to continue PT with him!

I've seen Brendan about 4 times now since I started experiencing TMJ, and at least two of those times I've had tears of joy in my eyes after our session. I mean, going from jaw popping and pain to none of that in less than an hour that is pretty emotional to me. Brendan is great! he is friendly, super patient, and professional. He takes his time to listen to everything I have to say, and has a very calming energy. He even helped me get comfortable about needles. What I love the most about my sessions with Brendan is that every time I leave with homework. He always teaches me something new I can do to work on my own and that has helped me tremendously. If you are considering seeing Brendan, I totally recommend you do!
