Jaw pain, like any other pain, isn’t easily pinned on a single root cause.

A large portion of TMJ pain is myofascial, driven by sustained tension patterns in the jaw, neck, and face. This often responds well to manual therapy, soft tissue techniques, and modalities like laser. Botox injections are sometimes effective for stubborn myofascial pain patterns.

The harder part isn’t calming the tissue — it’s addressing the drivers of that tension. Clenching, grinding, and occlusion issues commonly contribute. And sometimes one pattern reinforces the other. That’s why it’s great to work collaboratively with your dentist.

Joint mechanics matter too. True joint-based TMJ issues are often related to how the disc sits relative to the condyle. The disc is fibrocartilage and can remodel over time in response to mechanical stress.
When this happens, each side of the jaw may open slightly differently — leading to catching, deviation, or joint noise.

Here’s a big positive:
Even when disc position or joint mechanics aren’t ideal, the TMJ is remarkably resilient. These issues do NOT cause the jaw to “wear out,” and people do NOT end up needing jaw surgery because of common TMJ disorders. Conservative care is effective for the vast majority of cases, and there are certain types of pain injections available when it isn’t.

Not all jaw pain is mechanical. Occasionally, jaw pain is neurogenic — involving sensitization of the trigeminal nerve. These cases behave differently and don’t respond like muscle or joint pain.

What’s normal vs not:

✅ Clicking or popping without pain is extremely common — especially in hypermobile individuals.

❌ Locking, painful clicking, significant asymmetry, pain with chewing, or loss of opening range are not considered normal and are worth assessing.

Many people put way too much pressure on the idea of “good posture.” Most of our thoughts about posture and alignment are aesthetic, and not connected to pain or performance. In fact, actively working towards an unnatural version of “good posture” can actually create a lot of discomfort.

When people ask me what posture they should be aiming for, I usually say “Put your head on top of your shoulders and breathe.”

There isn’t one perfect position to hold all day. Bodies like variety, movement, and strength more than they like rigid rules. Posture isn’t something to fix — it’s just one of the many shapes your body takes throughout the day.

Move often. Be comfortable. Don’t overthink it.

With Roxy on a wedding sabbatical, we’ve been so lucky to have kinesiology services provided by Robyn in the interim. She’s been such a pleasure to work with and fit in seamlessly with the staff and clients alike.

Jordyn’s first mat Pilates class starting right now with some extra special guests 💜

Pilates equipment makes a return to the gym! Pilates is just one lens for exploring mobility — strength and control of our movement workspace. Systems and methods can be helpful guides, but our bodies aren’t tidy frameworks. They’re biological, adaptable, and sometimes contradictory.

There’s no single “right” way to train. What matters is expanding your capacity across a wide range of challenges, in ways that support the season you’re in.

We’re excited to be bringing back mat classes and individual sessions in the coming months, so stay tuned!

Honestly one of the things that makes me the happiest is seeing our team hanging out together in their free time. Sometimes they take “hanging” quite literally 🤷‍♂️

I’ve been sitting with this for a few years, chatting with colleagues and patients about a chronic pain scenario I see with surprising frequency that deserves more attention. Here’s the profile:

You come to the clinic grasping at another straw in your struggle with chronic joint and muscle pain. You don’t quite feel at home in your body — sometimes it feels like you’re disconnected from it. Your joints ache, click, and sometimes feel like they might slip out of place.

You’ve always known you were double jointed. Yet despite having the flexibility to put your palms on the floor, your back has always hurt; even as a kid you struggled with what everyone called “growing pains.”

Now that you’re older, your body tires easily, and even gentle exercise can leave you sore for days. And then there are the other symptoms that make everything harder: migraines that knock you flat, dizzy spells when you sit up too fast, and chronic fatigue that doesn’t seem to make sense.

You feel weighed down by labels like fibromyalgia, POTS, and “degenerative disc disease.” Maybe as an adult you’ve been diagnosed with ADHD or anxiety, making sense of years of restlessness or overwhelm, but (much like your TMJ problems and overcrowding) it hasn’t felt connected to a bigger picture.

⸻

I don’t know what it feels like to live with hypermobile Ehlers–Danlos syndrome (hEDS) or Hypermobility Spectrum Disorders (HSD), but I have heard these stories again and again.

This isn’t a checklist or diagnostic tool. Some symptoms are well documented in hEDS/HSD, others are still under study, and the role of a physician is critical. It’s a clinical diagnosis without conclusive lab tests — but reframing these seemingly unrelated problems as part of a systemic experience can be deeply meaningful.

If this hits home, I’m sorry it’s been so hard to feel validated. You are not alone. More clinicians are recognizing the nuance and complexity of it; let your story be heard, and assemble a healthcare alliance to help navigate this relatively unseen condition.

Great day out with a friend I haven’t seen in too long!
