Gentle, Holistic Relief for Jaw Pain, Headaches, and Neck Pain in Minneapolis
Finally, care that works without making things worse.
At Stockheart Whole Health, we help sensitive, complex bodies feel better—with nervous-system aware, trauma-informed care.
You’re Not Alone—and You’re Not “Too Much.”
💬 Frustrated by tightness that never fully goes away?
💬 Worried about side effects from medications or dismissive and invasive care?
💬 Exhausted from trying everything—and still hurting?
You deserve care that listens. Many of our clients have been dismissed, misdiagnosed, or told “just stretch more.”
At Stockheart, we hear you—and we can help.
Why Your Head, Neck & Jaw Pain Are Connected
Most practitioners treat these separately. We see the bigger picture.
Your symptoms might include:
-
Tension headaches that start at your skull base
Morning headaches from nighttime clenching
"Barometric pressure" headaches (often jaw tension)
Migraines with neck and shoulder involvement
-
Clicking, popping, or grinding when you open your mouth
Jaw locking or feeling "stuck"
Pain when chewing, talking, or yawning
Teeth grinding or clenching (especially at night)
Ear fullness without infection
-
"Tech neck" from forward head posture
One-sided stiffness that won't release
Can't find a comfortable pillow position
Morning neck pain that takes hours to loosen
Shoulder blade pain traveling up your neck
These happen together because your head, neck, and jaw form one interconnected system. When one area is in trouble, the others compensate—and eventually break down too.
The Real Reasons Your Pain Persists
It's not just "tight muscles" or "bad posture." Here's what's really happening:
🧠 Nervous System Stress - Chronic fight-or-flight creating protective muscle tension
🔄 Structural Imbalances - Spinal misalignments affecting nerve communication
🔥 Inflammatory Triggers - Food sensitivities, hormones, or toxins increasing pain sensitivity
💔 Emotional Holding - Unexpressed stress manifesting as physical tension
The key? We address ALL of these layers, not just where it hurts.
→ Does this sound like you might also struggle with stress, sleep, or burnout? We help with those connections too.
→ Notice your symptoms get worse with hormonal changes or certain foods? Those patterns matter.
