Lots of people ask me if it will help to see a chiropractor for TMJ problems. I say, it be able to. And the reason is this. A chiropractor's work is always to get the spinal joints moving accurately at every level.
When the spinal joints of the neck are in the correct position and moving right, it reduces the chance of irritation on nerves and blood vessels. Some of them nerves and blood vessels feed the muscles of the face and jaw; so if they are functioning correctly, the jaw can profit.
Moreover, you need to think of muscles themselves; they're connected to bones. If neck vertebrae of the spine are stuck and never moving in their conventional joint planes, muscles could possibly get too tight or too slack, both of which can cause spasms, neck pain and affect TMJ role.
