TMJ Therapy in Rochester Hills

If you’re dealing with jaw pain, daily headaches, or persistent ear and neck tension, your temporomandibular joint (TMJ) might be the underlying cause.

Located just in front of your ear, the TMJ connects your jaw to your skull. When it’s irritated, it can affect far more than just chewing.

Dr. Adeela Peer provides targeted chiropractic care for this dysfunction using gentle, low-force methods that put your comfort first.

Why Choose Care with a Rochester Hills Chiropractor

With more than 20 years of clinical experience, Dr. Peer takes a thoughtful, whole-body approach to care. Each visit begins with a detailed assessment of the jaw, head, neck, and posture. She looks at symptoms in context—whether from clenching, stress, alignment issues, or injury—and creates a care plan tailored to you. Often overlooked as a root cause of recurring headaches, facial pain, or neck stiffness, seeing a chiropractor trained in TMJ care helps ensure you’re not missing a key piece of the puzzle.
