Understanding Migraines & TMJ
Migraines and temporomandibular joint disorder (TMJ) often go hand-in-hand. TMJ creates tension and inflammation in the jaw joint, which can radiate pain into the head, neck, and face. Migraines, meanwhile, are severe headaches often triggered by stress, inflammation, or muscle tightness.
Both conditions can disrupt daily life—causing pain, fatigue, and sleep difficulties. At LaserLab, our focus is not only on easing the discomfort, but also on helping your body reset and restore balance naturally.
How We Help with Migraines & TMJ
Migraines and jaw pain can make it hard to work, rest, or even enjoy simple daily activities. Traditional approaches often involve medication to dull the symptoms. At LaserLab, we offer therapies designed to address the underlying issues: inflammation, circulation, and muscle tension.
1. Class IV Laser Therapy (Summus Laser)
Our Summus Class IV Laser therapy uses photobiomodulation (PBM) to deliver targeted red and near-infrared light to tissues in the jaw, temples, and neck. At the cellular level, PBM improves mitochondrial function, reduces inflammation, and helps calm irritated nerves. Clinical research supports PBM for conditions like TMJ and headaches, showing reductions in pain intensity and frequency.
By easing inflammation in jaw muscles and nerves, many clients notice less clenching, reduced jaw soreness, and fewer headache triggers.
2. Whole-Body Light Therapy (Systemic Support)
Migraines aren’t just local—they affect the entire system. Whole-body light therapy delivers red and near-infrared wavelengths across the body, helping to regulate inflammation and promote relaxation. For many clients, it also supports deeper, more restorative sleep—an important factor in managing migraine frequency.
3. A Holistic, Personalized Approach
No two people experience migraines or TMJ the same way. For some, jaw tension is the main trigger. For others, systemic inflammation or sleep disruptions play the larger role. That’s why we build individualized plans that may combine targeted Class IV laser sessions, whole-body therapy, and complementary approaches for full-body balance.
