What happens at a first chiropractic appointment?

At your first appointment at Chiropractor Norwich, you will be welcomed by Rachel, then seen by Dr Luke for a full consultation covering your health history and current symptoms. A physical examination follows, including spinal palpation, range of motion assessment, and a Zone Technique nervous system evaluation. If safe to proceed, treatment begins on the same visit. You will also receive time on the clinic's spinal massage table, the only one of its kind in Norfolk.

How is the Zone Technique different from standard chiropractic?

Standard chiropractic focuses primarily on spinal alignment and structure. The Zone Technique assesses nervous system function by identifying which of six body systems are under stress, using pressure points on the back of the head. This means treatment addresses the root cause of dysfunction rather than only the location of pain. Dr Luke Jeal is the only practitioner offering the Zone Technique in Norfolk.

Does chiropractic help with sciatica?

Yes. Sciatica is one of the most common conditions treated at Chiropractor Norwich and Chiropractor Yarmouth. Chiropractic adjustments reduce pressure on the sciatic nerve, while the Zone Technique assessment identifies which body systems are contributing to the nerve irritation. Many patients experience significant relief within a few sessions.

Can a chiropractor help with TMJ and jaw pain?

Yes. TMJ dysfunction frequently co-occurs with neck pain and tension headaches because the jaw, cervical spine, and skull form an interconnected unit. Chiropractor Norwich uses the Zone Technique to assess the nerve and muscular systems that control jaw function.

How much does TMJ treatment cost?

The initial consultation and treatment is £65. Follow-up appointments are £42 each. No hidden fees and no contracts.

Can neck problems cause jaw pain?

Yes. The cervical spine, jaw, and skull are mechanically connected. Cervical spine dysfunction can alter jaw mechanics, increase muscular tension in the jaw, and contribute to TMJ symptoms including clicking, locking, and pain.

Understanding TMJ

Why Does Jaw Pain Keep Coming Back?

TMJ (temporomandibular joint) dysfunction occurs when the jaw joint and its surrounding muscles do not work together properly. The jaw, cervical spine, and skull form an interconnected unit. When the cervical spine is restricted, it alters jaw mechanics, increases muscular tension in the jaw, and contributes to TMJ symptoms.

Most TMJ treatments focus only on the jaw: splints, mouth guards, dental work. But if the cervical spine is contributing, these treatments provide incomplete relief. The Zone Technique at Chiropractor Norwich assesses the nerve and muscular systems that control jaw function.

😬

Clicking and Popping Jaw

The disc inside the TMJ becomes displaced, causing clicking or popping when opening or closing the mouth. Often linked to muscular imbalance and cervical dysfunction.

🔒

Jaw Locking

The jaw gets stuck open or closed. Can be caused by disc displacement, muscular spasm, or joint inflammation. Cervical spine treatment often helps restore normal jaw opening.

🧠

TMJ Headaches

Jaw dysfunction frequently causes headaches felt in the temples, behind the eyes, or at the base of the skull. The jaw muscles and cervical spine share nerve pathways.

👂

Ear Pain and Tinnitus

The TMJ sits directly in front of the ear canal. Dysfunction can cause ear pain, fullness, ringing, or muffled hearing without any ear infection being present.

Our Approach

How the Zone Technique Treats TMJ

Assess the Full Connection

Zone Technique evaluates the nerve and muscular systems controlling the jaw. Cervical spine examination identifies dysfunction at C1, C2, and C3 which directly affect jaw mechanics.

Restore Cervical and Jaw Function

Chiropractic adjustments to the upper cervical spine restore proper mechanics. Gentle jaw mobilisation and muscular release address the TMJ directly.

Massage and Soft Tissue Work

Massage therapy with Chloe can release tension in the jaw muscles, temporal muscles, and suboccipital region. IASTM is particularly effective for TMJ muscular tension.

🤝 Our Honest Promise

If your TMJ requires dental or specialist referral, we will tell you honestly and point you in the right direction.
