Practice Update: Patient Availability
Thank you for your continued interest in our services. At this time, our caseload is fully booked, and we are experiencing an exceptionally high demand for care.
Due to the length of our current waitlist—which extends several months—we have reached capacity and are no longer able to accept additional individuals onto the waitlist at this time.
We understand this may be disappointing and appreciate your patience and understanding. We encourage you to check back periodically for updates on availability.
Thank you again for your interest and support.
Overcome your Jaw pain
Return to living the life you love
with the people you love
We are often taught that as we get older, we are expected to feel these things and life stressors and physical challenges generally get more difficult. While physically, our body does not get “younger”, our ability to thrive should last throughout the lifespan.
Body wide chronic fatigue, feeling unrested despite a full night’s sleep, symptoms of neck and jaw pain are all NOT normal and a sign of an underlying problem brewing. You may be experiencing temporomandibular joint dysfunction, sleep disordered breathing, or other orofacial myofunctional disorders.
An initial assessment can help pin point the root cause of these issues and guide you down the right path to improving your health and addressing the problem.
It can be really difficulty to know what is “normal” when it comes to pain, fatigue, and exhaustion.
