Pediatric Headache & TMJ Care in Greensboro, NC

When headaches start getting in the way of being a kid.

Headaches and jaw pain can affect much more than how a child feels physically.

They can make school harder.

Sports less enjoyable.

Sleep more difficult.

And social plans harder to keep.

For parents, it can be frustrating to watch your child struggle while trying to figure out where to turn next.

Care should meet kids where they are.

Children and teenagers aren't simply smaller adults.

Their bodies, brains, activity levels, routines, and ways of communicating symptoms are different. Treatment should account for that.

At Gate City Physio, we take time to understand both the child's symptoms and how those symptoms are affecting everyday life.

We may look at:

• Headache and migraine patterns

• Neck and jaw function

• Movement and posture

• Visual and sensory sensitivity

• Balance and vestibular symptoms

• Activity and exercise tolerance

• Sleep and daily routines

Treatment is gentle, practical, and age-appropriate.

Depending on your child's needs, it may include movement, hands-on care, sensory or vestibular exercises, jaw exercises, education, and strategies that can actually fit into a child's day.

The goal is bigger than symptom reduction.

It's getting back to school.

Back to sports.

Back to hanging out with friends.

Back to concentrating in class.

Back to being themselves.

We also believe parents should understand what's happening. You'll leave with a clearer picture of your child's symptoms and practical ways to support them between visits.

When appropriate, we can also communicate with your child's physician, dentist, or other providers as part of a coordinated plan.
