  • Thanks, glad it helped.

  • 30 seconds to one minute, maybe a few times a day to retrain yourself not to clench

  • I don't know the answer. I cannot diagnose over the web. Consult a tmj professional if the pain persists.

  • HI Carrie

    I don't have any special exercises on line for EDS patients right now. Each case can be different and what works for one may be contraindicated for another person, hence I cannot put any definitive exercises up on the web without knowing the persons for which the exercise is intended. I posted this video as general information for those with TMJ issues, I am sure it can help if you keep at it daily.

  • Thank you Dr. Rosenberg! I have TMJ and this has helped very much!

  • You are very welcome. I am glad it helped you. BTW, I don't think I mentioned this in the video, but even if your TMJ feels perfect, continue with a maintenance regimen of exercising/stretching the area. Why? Anybody with a tendency to tighten the jaw muscles, either out of habit or from an old injury or dental work, tends to injure it again, particularly when sleeping (clenching/grinding). So, keeping up with the exercises keeps the issue away (or at least under control)

  • Wow the acupressure point trick worked for me!

  • That pressure point release helped me immediately. I've been looking for something like this for so long...you rock man.

  • Genius. Thank you so much!

  • @howtostretch I cannot describe you how much these excercises have helped me, over the first week the popping was reduced about 90%, and now I have my hopes it can actually remove it. Thank you so much.

  • thanks doc this helped me so so so much!!!!!! what a guy lol

  • how long to hold the stretch and how many times should it be done...the pressure point thing looks a bit difficult....but I will do the first two

  • I had the clicking sounds for few years but it was not painfull yet annoying. And last winter I had a nasty fall hitting my jaw but even after that it was not a big issue after a few days. Now since alst couple of weeks, I have developed pain on right jaw. Is this completely curable??? :-(
