TMJ Headaches

When headaches are caused by TMJ, neuromuscular treatments that address the underlying problem offer the most effective and lasting relief. If you have been dissatisfied with previous headache treatments, Dr. Marzban can evaluate your jaw alignment to determine if TMJ is present and provide you with treatments that produce the long-term relief you deserve.
