OVERVIEW
TMJ pain builds slowly. It starts with tightness when chewing or a small pop near your ear. Then it lingers. Yawning hurts. The jaw locks or clicks. The neck feels tense. Many people in Chandler deal with TMJ from stress, teeth grinding, or long hours at a computer. Our physical therapy helps calm the joint, release tension, and restore normal movement. We track pain levels, jaw opening in millimeters, and side shift to measure change. Clear data guides every step.
BOOKING APPOINTMENTS
Call our office or use the online form to book a visit. Scheduling is simple and flexible. Before you arrive, we’ll explain what to expect during the first session. Wear comfortable clothing and bring a list of any recent dental work, medication, or bite guards. We handle the rest.

TMJ recovery takes steady care and attention. Most start with one to two visits per week. As pain improves and motion returns, sessions space out. A typical plan runs four to eight weeks. Your program depends on how long you’ve had symptoms and how quickly the joint responds. We track progress and adjust each step to match your needs.
DIAGNOSE
EXAM & IMAGING
We start by learning your story. When symptoms began, what triggers them, and how often pain appears. We measure jaw opening in millimeters, note clicks or shifts, and test nearby muscles. The neck and shoulders are part of every screen since they often influence the jaw. Once we gather results, we explain the findings and outline your plan clearly.
TREATMENTS
CUSTOM TREATMENT PROGRAM
Treatment stays calm and specific. We focus on soft tissue work for the masseter, pterygoid, and temporalis muscles. Gentle glides help the joint move smoothly again. Short daily stretches and posture drills keep progress steady. We teach jaw rest position, heat use for tightness, and breathing skills to reduce clenching.
FOLLOW UP
WE CALL TO CHECK IN
Follow ups refine your care. Each visit, we measure pain and motion again to track results. Stretches progress into control and light strength work. Some sessions build mobility, others stability and endurance. We may introduce light chewing practice to prepare for normal activity. As motion improves, pain eases, and confidence returns.

Office was very welcoming from the moment you walked into the office, Marissa and Kelsey were there to greet me. They know all of their patients and treat them like family. Dr. Dault was AMAZING. SHE listened and really searched to find the answers to my pain. Eric was very thorough when doing my ultrasound to diagnose my issue. Their recommendations helped me and in the end my pain decreased! Thank you to the entire team!

I was in a pretty dark place before starting at the Chandler location. My low back pain was completely debilitating and affecting the quality of my life for many years. I saw Phil once a week for 6 weeks and feel stronger and more confident than I have in many, many years. Phil explained the results of my MRI in great detail and answered my questions (as trivial as they might have been) with respect and understanding... I have been to many physical therapists before and the results I got here were the best. I highly recommend the Chandler location and will go back again if I ever need to!

What Are You Experiencing?
You might not know what treatment you need, as most people don’t. What you do know is that something hurts. That’s enough for us to start. Fill out this quick form and just tell us how it feels. We’ll look it over and reach out to talk through what could be going on and what might help.
LOW HIGH
SEVERE PAIN
If your pain feels like too much to handle, please don’t wait around. Call 911 or get to the nearest hospital. Once the emergency part is taken care of, we’ll be here to help you with longer-term support.
MODERATE PAIN / DISCOMFORT
Maybe it’s not stopping you from getting through the day, but it’s always there feeling sharp, dull, or just plain annoying. Let us know what it feels like. We’ll work with you to figure out why it’s happening and how to make things easier.
MINOR PAINS & ACHES
A little soreness or stiffness might not sound like much, but it can still mess with your day. Those small aches are often your body’s way of saying something needs attention. Tell us what you’ve been noticing, and we’ll help keep it from turning into something worse.
