Kids Dental Insurance, Relaxation Exercises for TMJ Pain Relief
TMJ pain is often the product of tension-producing stress. Simple relaxation exercises can help.
Here are two relaxation exercises:
* Slowly inhale, allowing your stomach rather than your chest to expand. Exhale slowly while making your exhalation last about as long as your inhalation. Repeat 5-10 times.
* While sitting or lying in a comfortably supported position, tense and release tension from each muscle in your body. Begin with the feet and work upwards to the head.
