TMJ (Jaw Pain) Massage

Показать описание
Our two temporomandibular (TMJ) joints connect the mandible and the temporal bones together and allow a complex combination of hinge and gliding movements. The joints are composed of synovial fluid, cartilage and a joint capsule, like other synovial joints, but also contains a fibrocartilaginous disc.
Many people seek out care related to temporomandibular dysfunction (TMD) each year. These issues can result from direct injury, inflammation of the joints and/or overuse of the region. Furthermore, sleep issues related to the jaw (grinding, clenching, etc) and painful neck problems can also contribute to jaw dysfunction.
Manual therapy for TMD typically involves massage of the muscles that move and control the jaw. While this is best accomplished by seeing a practitioner who specializes in this area, performing massage on yourself can help alleviate pain.
Make sure to checkout my new pain & injury rehab book (link in bio). It includes comprehensive programs for the 50 most common orthopedic issues, including a program for TMJ pain.
Shown in this video are three areas that you can massage to help reduce pain and improve jaw function.
1. External Masseter Muscle Massage
2. Temporalis Muscle Massage
3. Internal Masseter Massage
