There are many muscles in the jaw, face and head.  Poor posture, gum chewing, tooth decay, grinding your teeth or long hours of dental work can strain the jaw muscles.  Pain here can cause sensitive teeth and restrict opening of the jaw or even cause pain around the face. 

When pain symptoms become worse trigger points in these muscles can create temporomandibular joint pain or TMJ which is felt in the jaw, temples and face.  This condition is more common than you think, and millions of people suffer needlessly with pain and dysfunction.  Until you have this corrected, I recommend that you wear a mouth guard if you are grinding your teeth during the night or day.

I teach my clients how to use the spiky massage ball on specific muscle groups to treat this condition and find relief.  There is no reason to suffer any longer. You can practice these techniques using my video or photos below. More detailed information can be found in my book, How To Heal Your Body.
