This isn’t a real tmj “exercise” per se, but it’s a pain relief technique that you might find helpful.

1. Use a small dixie cup or some other smaller paper cup.
2. Fill it about 1/4 of the way with water and stick in the freezer.
3. One frozen, take the bottom of the cup and rub in a circular motion around your tmj joint. Try moving clockwise, or counter clockwise, whatever works best for you.

That’s it! This is just a quick, easy way to reduce the inflamation of your TMJ joint when a flare up happens. For more permanent solutions, check out the book that saved my life!
