Got jaw pain (TMJ)?
Try this this simple technique to help relieve that pain! 😱✅️

Your masseter muscle is your primary chewing muscle — not the only one, but the main one — and it covers the sides of the jaw just behind the cheeks. It’s also the muscle that clenches your jaw and grinds your teeth, unfortunately, and it’s one of the most common locations for trigger points in the human body. It's a culprit in many cases of bruxism (that’s Latin for “grinding your teeth”) and temporomandibular joint syndrome (jaw joint pain), and probably other unexplained painful problems in the area — it will be either a contributing factor or a complication.

Temporomandibular joint syndrome (TMJS) is a slow-motion failure of jaw joint function, mostly pain and/or limited movement, strongly linked to habitual clenching and grinding (bruxism). TMJS can be minor or awful, and is one of the classic chronic pain syndromes that lacks an obvious cause. The worst cases interfere with eating and sleeping, often involve ear aches and ringing as well.
