Jaw tension and pain are among the most common complaints I hear about in my medical practice.
Here’s a simple trick you can do anytime or anywhere that’s been a big help to my patients.
In the past year, nearly every one of my new patients has had an issue with clenching their jaw, grinding their teeth, generally holding tension in that area and sometimes having outright pain.
When this happen, we sometimes think about massaging the outside of our faces, but most people don’t find that very effective.
Pterygoid massage is simple, free and effective, something you can do regularly or anytime you feel things tightening up. All you need are clean hands.
Give it a try and let me know how it works for you.
Salúd!
