Remedial jaw
Exercises.
Give both jaw joints preliminary warmth with a
protected hot water bottle applied first to one joint then to the other for five
minutes on each side before starting the exercises.
1. Reflex opening exercise. Partly open your mouth against hand pressure
on the chin for 20 to 30 seconds. Swallow to relax and then open smoothly and
widely without sideways deviation supporting both jaw joints with light finger
pressure.
2. Lateral opening movement. Support first the
left jaw joint with the fingers of the left hand and place the right hand
against the side of the right jaw. Open with a sideways swing to the right
against firm pressure from the right hand.
3. Do the lateral opening exercise on the opposite side.
Do each exercise in turn and repeat the whole series six times, three
times a day to begin with reducing gradually to twice a day three times a week
or until free of pain.
REMEMBER: MUSCLES CAN BE COAXED BUT NOT DRIVEN!
