TMJ
I spent Saturday 27th February 2021 on an update course with the ACPTMD for the TMJ (jaw). It was good to refresh anatomy knowledge and discuss cases with colleagues.
This prompted a reminder post for good habits for TMJ sufferers!
Don’t bite nails or chew gum
Don’t sleep on tummy
Maintain good neck posture
Keep tongue on roof of mouth when you sneeze
Keep mouth relaxed (good position is the last “a” when saying Emma)
Keep tongue on roof of mouth to relax muscles (the “cl” of cluck)
If you want to talk through a jaw issue…please do contact me for an informal chat… Jo x
