Craniomandibular Dysfunction (CMD)

Craniomandibular Dysfunction (CMD) specifically deals with the temporomandibular joint, the skull, and the upper cervical joints as a functional unit.

Following orthodontic treatments, occlusal disorders, postural issues, clenching, or grinding, this region may become symptomatic. Targeted relaxation techniques for the muscles and joint mobilizations can be applied. Osteopathic techniques from Craniosacral Therapy are an essential part of CMD treatment.

CRANIOMANDIBULÄRE DYSFUNKTION (CMD)

Against headache, crunching & neck tension

Craniomandibular dysfunction (CMD) refers to problems in the jaw and skull that can lead to pain and dysfunction. CMD can cause a variety of symptoms, including jaw pain, grinding or rubbing of the teeth, restricted mouth opening, headaches, earaches, and neck tension.

Physiotherapy can be an effective treatment for CMD. Through targeted manual techniques and exercises, therapy aims to relax the jaw muscles, mobilise the temporomandibular joints and improve the alignment of the jaw. In addition, relaxation techniques and measures to improve posture can be used to reduce pressure on the temporomandibular joint.

A physiotherapy approach to CMD also includes a comprehensive assessment of the individual's situation and the development of a personalised treatment plan. This may include exercises to strengthen the jaw muscles, stretches to improve mobility and adaptations to the patient's posture and lifestyle.It is important to be aware of the patient's condition.

It is important to note that the treatment of CMD may require a multidisciplinary approach, with physiotherapists working closely with dentists, orthodontists and other professionals to provide comprehensive care. Early diagnosis and treatment of CMD can help relieve symptoms and restore normal jaw function.
