      @@user-js8nf5zo4d This video is for TMJ disorder which is different from Cervical Dystonia or Spasmodic Torticollis. However these two disorders are related and one may cause the other or make the other worse. So you may find these exercises helpful for TMJ disorder if you have that too on top of Cervical Dystonia, but you should also try to find good exercises specifically for Cervical Dystonia. There are other RUclips videos and websites specifically for that too.

    I've had TMJ for about 10 consecutive years, and not a single treatment/exercise video has EVER helped me, not a single one, so i just adapted to suffering with a jaw problem continually getting worse.This is the ONLY video that I felt actually work. I watched it first two days ago, and my jaw had felt a lot less clenched, and then two days later I tried the exercises again. I felt and heard the pop that had straightened my jaw out and i yelled "Holy shit" immediately after in disbelief, then looked at a bathroom to see my bottom teeth were actually properly aligned with the top. The left side of my jaw had been clenched for 10+ years. That mixed with a 2-year relationship going down the drain this past 2 weeks threw me into a major depression. This video actually feels like it was a life changing fresh start with all the bad luck I've been having lately. I cannot emphasize how thankful I am for this video. The rolling eyes to the opposite side of the cheek my tongue was pressed against was what finally did it for me, on the third day of using this video's exercises.

    For the past two years I have had pain in my jaw that makes it difficult to eat at times. Once a year it randomly lets off for a month or so, but the rest of the time it hurts all day, every day.
    Lately it's been hurting me to smile and it's even been keeping me up at night, much worse than it's ever been. Yesterday, in desperation (before booking a dentist appointment for it), I hopped on youtube to try to learn about what was happening.
    I found your video. I did your exercises. I have now been 100% pain-free since I first did them 3 days ago- this, to me, is a kind of miracle. I've not had control over this pain for over two years. I had assumed I would feel that pain for the rest of my life. I have never found ANYTHING that helps.
    I can not thank you enough for posting this video. You have no idea what you've done for my quality of life by helping me to get rid of this persistent, increasingly-debilitating pain :) I'll be doing these exercises every day from now on!

      Its better than the gym in this regard.

    Ok so I want to share my successtory here. What I had: more than 10 years of neck pain, back pain, nerve numbness all over my body, jaw pain, ear pain, headaches, an uneven looking face, never could keep my head straight, had bad sleep, ... I also have bruxism since I was a child. I couldn't keep my arms in the air for more than 10 seconds, I had bad posture etc... Nobody was able to tell me where I should start to fix all that. Physical therapy sessions only helped a bit. But I decided to do my research and be my own physical therapist, because I knew something was causing an imbalance in my body. Last week I found that imbalance, even if it was there already the whole time in front of me: my jaw. I saw this video and did all those exercises, and they helped quite a lot. I did so many chin tucks and it really helped a LOT for my neck. But a few days ago I found the number one thing that fixed everything: releasing the pterygoid muscles in my mouth. A few times a day, I palpate and squeeze the pterygoids for a minute. I only do it on the side where I lacked mobility in my jaw. It's crazy, my teeth/jaw are now aligned correctly, I feel the stress coming of the jaw and I feel it through whole my body. It's really weird because for the first time in many years I keep my head and teeth straight, which feels weird. I feel more balanced, flexible and I have good posture now. Just by doing one simple muscle release.

    Bless you! Bless you! Bless you! My TMJ has been getting worse these last few months, and today I finally broke down and posted a plea for wisdom/guidance on my Facebook from any friends in dentistry or those with TMJ. A friend linked this video and said that your exercises have completely changed the way she feels and how she self-heals. I definitely felt some severe pain doing these exercises (even without putting much pressure) and that's proof that I am working the exact areas that need help. My friend said I need to be patient with myself, but to do one every day. You are helping so many people with these videos. I am your newest virtual patient and I could not be more grateful for you.

    I didn’t do these exercises cus I was in any pain. I did them cus my jaw was completely different on both sides of my face. After just the first day my face already looks better. I’ve struggled with my insecurity about my appearance, and I can happily say it’s slowly disappearing. Thank you Doctor.

      @@Dracy. I try to do them at least 2 times a day, but I cheat sometimes and just do it once. The asymmetry was where my jaw is connected to the skull, leading to my jaw becoming uneven and my right face looking bigger than my left. This is slowly fixing my uneven jaw, I can see that. And it will probably fix my smaller face, but I'm also doing exercises where I fill my mouth with water and just try to hold it for as long as I can with a pufferfish face.

    I have on and off TMJ pain which I suppose is associated with stressful phases in my life, or in other words, jaw clenching phases. The pain is awful. I also had ear pain from it last year. This video helps me EVERY SINGLE TIME to completely remove the pain and I feel reborn! You just have to be consistent with the excersizes and really plan to take time out of your day to do them. In my most painful times, I would do them as soon as I wake up and before sleep, so twice daily, and it would help me in a matter of days, max up to a week! I love you Adam!!😊

    I have been suffering from TMJ for years. I sleep with a mouthguard (most nights...) and also a CPAP machine. What a combo. Some recent dental work on a molar, with a root canal and a new crown, left me with a change in my bite. This has exacerbated my TMJ over the past few weeks with excruciating pain, making it difficult to bite down to eat on my left side. After some Googling, I came across your RUclips channel yesterday morning. Yesterday I did your TMJ #3 and this morning I did TMJ #1. Wow! My jaw feels sooo much better. Relaxed, do I even dare say.... Thank you!!

      Such a joy to get your feedback, Vani. You are on your way to healing. I would do TMJ1 and TMJ2 daily and start getting your body out of the grinding loop. The open mouth exercises with the curled tongue are so good for you. You can do them throughout the day. Make sure to stop phone at least 1 hour before bed, do things that reduce stress like getting in nature and forgive others. You don't need any extra tension in your body. I hope this leads you to a life of caring for yourself and others.

    My amazing dentist inspected every tooth, x rayed & found no cavities or evidence of abscess. Advised that TMJ issue of grinding & clenching in my sleep has returned.
    I've been given anti-inflam drugs & pain killers as the pain has been so awful.
    Now that I've done each of these exercises, I'm actually yawning... I feel a tremendous sense of 'peace' in the jaw department ;) & relief from the gnawing pain.

I wore an adjusted and fitted mouthpiece that slowly realigned my jaw. After that, I had a flare-up in 2015 then again in July of 2018 and is still there but since doing these exercise it is somewhat under control now unless I do things to flare it up like opening my mouth wide to eat or eating bagels and chewing hard candy even yelling too much aggravates my jaw. I am thankful for these exercises making my TMJ bearable to live with and hope it will ease off as it had before.

Now, I am eating, brushing my teeth, and feeling better everyday in just a matter of 2 weeks. Huge improvement. I will continue doing the videos to better myself. You had saved me a lot of money that I don't have. God bless you tenfolds for sharing this for free.

With the shelter in place order right now I am not able to leave my home or find a chiropractor to visit and this just gave me the best pain relief I’ve had yet.

      Me too! I ended up seeing the dentist on a emergency visit since everything is closed. She told me to get a mouth guard to help ease the jaw from clunching at night.
      I got one at Target for $30 but I had to mold it to my teeth, it really helps the jaw to prevent further damage on the jaw and joints.. and you can have quality sleep :)

The only thing that REALLY made a difference on that is drinking less alcohol and coffee. Now I notice that when I drink and don't use my mouthguard I wake up with pain on my whole face from the clenching.

      @@ShowyGDL You should start mewing. It's decreased my grinding SO much. It will also work to reverse some of the effects over time. It's tough at first but you should stick to it. Once you are able to mew at night, and your tongue is strong enough, it will counter the force of your jaw and prevent it from grinding down your teeth. Check out the orthotropics youtube channel.

    i just wanted to come here and say that this series was the start of my TMJ healing process. I’ve had many false starts in the past where I thought I was making progress and then I’d fall right back into the same jaw pain, headaches, and biting my tongue to try and stop myself from constantly clenching my jaw. When I found this video, I thought it would provide me some short term relief and that’s it. But after keeping a routine by watching these videos weekly and learning the exercises so I can do them whenever I need them, I can say that this gave me way more than short term relief. I have a much more relaxed jaw now and i’m not unconsciously clenching it which was giving me TMJ flare ups, and I feel genuinely like my situation has changed for the better, even my jaw clicking isn’t as bad! Thank you so much Adam, this changed everything for me.
