Benefits of intraoral TMJ release🌿
- Reduces pain: Alleviates jaw pain, headaches, and referred pain from trigger points by treating tight, deep jaw muscles.
- Improves mobility: Increases the range of motion in the jaw, making it more comfortable to open and close the mouth.
- Relieves muscle tension: Releases tightness in overworked muscles, such as the masseter, which can be caused by stress, clenching, or teeth grinding.
- Increases circulation: Boosts blood flow to the jaw muscles, which helps deliver oxygen and nutrients while flushing out metabolic waste products that contribute to pain and stiffness.
- Aids relaxation: Activates the parasympathetic nervous system, promoting relaxation and further reducing muscle tension.
- Targets hard-to-reach muscles: Allows therapists to directly access and treat muscles inside the mouth that are inaccessible from the outside.
- Helps with TMJ dysfunction: Addresses issues related to TMJ disorders, including clicking and popping, and is beneficial for those with bruxism.
- Supports recovery: Can be helpful for individuals recovering from dental procedures or jaw injuries.
