I visited The JawSpine Centre because I experienced chronic neck stiffness that did not improve with routine stretching. They took a different strategy from the start, looking at how everything was connected. The sessions were thorough and not rushed. I enjoyed how well they described each process. After a few visits, my movement felt better, and the stiffness decreased significantly.

I have been dealing with TMJ and neck issues for almost two years, and honestly it takes a huge toll on you physically and mentally. I did not even realize how connected everything was until I started treatment at JawSpine Centre, Toronto. My jaw feels so much better, my neck tension has eased, and what surprised me the most was how much my dizziness dropped as I continued treatment. I had thought it was something else entirely, but once the real issues were identified and corrected, everything finally started to make sense.
The laser treatments and upper back scraping helped release so much built up tension that I had been carrying for years. For the first time in a long while, my body actually felt like it could relax instead of constantly feeling tight and uncomfortable.
Dr Ardavan is incredibly knowledgeable, kind, and genuinely cares about your progress. He takes the time to explain what is going on and makes you feel heard, which means a lot when you have been dealing with something for this long.
A huge thank you to Nikita as well. She is an extremely sweet and welcoming receptionist who always makes you feel comfortable from the moment you walk in.
If you have been struggling with TMJ, jaw pain, neck issues, dizziness, or posture related problems, I truly recommend this place. After two years of dealing with these issues, this has been a game changer for me.

Highly recommended.
I first visited the Y & F dental office because I was experiencing constant, severe, spreading gum pain that wouldn’t go away—even after taking 10 Advil a day. I was convinced I had a serious cavity or an infection in my teeth or gums.
Dr. Amir examined me and diagnosed me with TMJ. For pain management, he recommended that I see a chiropractor and referred me to Jaw Spine. My pain was so intense that I honestly couldn’t believe these treatments would help, but they truly did. I noticed a difference in my pain level even after my very first session with Dr. Ardavan.
Each session continues to make a noticeable improvement, and the home exercises he gives me have been incredibly helpful in breaking the habits that were contributing to my discomfort. I’m currently doing cold laser therapy and pressure therapy, and I highly recommend these treatments to anyone dealing with similar issues.
Besides the successful results I’ve experienced, I also want to highlight how wonderful the entire team is. From the receptionist to the doctors, every staff member is kind, helpful, and professional. I’m genuinely so happy that I walked into their clinic on that first day 🙂

If you want, I can also make it shorter, more formal, or more emotional.

I had an excellent experience with Dr. Ardi. He is a highly skilled and knowledgeable chiropractor, especially in treating TMJ disorders. From the very first visit, he took the time to thoroughly assess my condition and clearly explain the treatment plan, which made me feel comfortable and confident.
Dr. Ardi is professional, caring, and truly attentive to his patients’ needs. I noticed a significant improvement in my jaw pain and overall discomfort after treatment. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for an experienced chiropractor, particularly for TMJ-related issues.

I have been to several dentists and doctors for my jaw pain and numbness and no one was able to figure out what the issue was until I came here to see Dr. Ardi Jafari. He went over a very thorough medical background and did an examination during the initial consult and recommended that I ask my family doctor to send me for a neck ultrasound. I did the ultrasound and they found a lesion in one of my salivary glands for which I'm scheduled to see a specialist now. This was beyond my expectations from a chiropractor. I'll be forever thankful to Dr. Jafari to identify the source of my jaw discomfort. I never had such a calm and thorough experience at a doctors office before.

I have had jaw pain . I clench my teeth and it had taken a toll even with a night guard. I tried many things and was close to getting invasive treatment until i got Dr Ardi from my friend.He was realistic about what the outcomes could be .
I followed the treatment plan including the at home exercises and today was my final appointment.
I didn’t honestly think he would ever be able to massage it without the pain but today there was none, all tension and pain gone .
I highly recommend dr.ardi .I cannot say enough good things. Give him a try before you jump to something invasive .

I am suffering from cervical pain for a long time, I was even not able to comb my hairs. I was in deep pain. I am super impressed with the treatment given by dr Ardi After my first session only I feel much relief in my pain. He has professional approach and knows all the trigger points very well, his knowledge is super abundant. I have never had an experience like this with any of the health practitioner. He is so humble and patient with his patients. After my sessions I can move my neck easily, raise my hand without pain. Thank you Dr Ardi .. recommend this jawspine centre for great experience

I have had jaw pain for years. I clench my teeth and it had taken a toll even with a night guard. I tried many things and was close to getting botox until i got Dr Ardavans name from my dentist. He was realistic about what the outcomes could be and he did let me know the massage would hurt at first (and it does) as any massage when your muscles are tense.
I followed the treatment plan including the at home exercises and today was my final appointment.
I didn’t honestly think he would ever be able to massage it without the pain but today there was none, all tension and pain gone even my tinnitus is better.
I highly recommend. I cannot say enough good things. Give him a try before you jump to something invasive like botox.

After doing Botox for several years and now getting no effects or relief from it I decided to see Dr. Ardi at Jawspine. He not only treats your jaw but he also explains everything in detail and he actually holds a conversation with you. You don't feel rushed and you actually feel valued. This place gave me a hope to deal with my jaw pain. This has impacted me both physically and mentally.
