102- Is Your Jaw Pain Causing Your Pelvic Pain?// Understanding the Link Between TMJ and Pelvic Floor Dysfunction

Hey Friend! Do you struggle with TMJ or jaw pain? Maybe tension headaches or migraines from grinding your teeth? Or have you been told you grind at night and need to wear a mouth guard? If you have any of these TMJ dysfunction symptoms or any pelvic floor dysfunction symptoms like overactive bladder, pelvic pain, pain with intercourse, urinary urgency and more, then you will want to pay attention to this week’s episode! I have mentioned many times throughout this show that the whole body is connected and I have even mentioned the connection between the TMJ and pelvic floor. However, this is a connection that is way more intimate and common than people may think. So inside this episode I am diving much deeper into how the pelvic floor and TMJ or jaw joint are connected and how they influence each other. From understanding, anatomy, tension, posture and even tongue posture, we can start to connect and heal our body as a whole. This is a connection I dive into inside RESTORE so check out the details for that below if you are interested! RESTORE is my first 12 wk online signature program hosted inside my new platform that will be an APP soon Pelvic Floor, Core & More! Inside that program I walk you through the basics of healing, restoring your breathing, posture, core function and overall strength and return to impact and intensity. All with the guidance of me, a Pelvic Floor PT, in your pocket making sure that you are getting individualized support and feedback through the program during our weekly group coaching calls! This option is great for those that can't afford a one-on-one session for $200-$240, those that don’t have access to a pelvic floor PT in person or those that want to have a structured organized program with support as they are phasing out of acute therapy treatments and working more independently. 👉 APPLY for RESTORE https://zk54zbgub54.typeform.com/to/bkF2AUKm Or Learn more about it here: https://balancedmomtality.com/the-app As always, if you are pregnant, postpartum or just experiencing any pelvic floor/women's health issue like urinary incontinence/leaking, pelvic pain, pain with sex, urgency, heaviness/prolapse or any other back/hip/joint pain and you want a totally individualized approach, then let's get you booked for a virtual one-on-one coaching session or in person physical therapy session for a more individualized plan and one-on-one instructions so you can feel confident in your body and start healing today!!
