@dr.dan_dpt: Huge shout out to @Melanie for sharing her story. While sometimes Botox is needed, I’ve also had a lot of success treating TMJ pain in PT. I’ve also had quite a few patients that see me and also receive Botox injections, but because they see me, they don’t need as many. All in all it’s always best to try all of the conservative options before diving into something more aggressive. #physicaltherapy #TMJD
Physical therapy made a HUGE difference for me. My jaw was locking and super painful when I finally forced myself to go. Haven’t had issues in the 6 years since

You can also find a dentist who specializes in Tmj and makes specialized night guards with slights adjustments over time.

Love your videos! My knees aren’t too good. I torn my meniscus and mcl before and have just gotten jumpers knee. Can you give a training routine to ‘bulletproof’ my knees?

What if it’s Bruxism? Like, it doesn’t actually hurt except for when I bite either my cheeks or my tongue, but it does damage my teeth and tmj

Another option, trigger point injections that numb the muscle for several hours, can help any muscle de-spasm and provide short term to permanent relief...

I wish we could just go to physical therapists when something starts hurting instead of having to go to a PCP or a specialist first. PTs seem to diagnose better and they actually HELP
