I have had tmj for many years and I have
found huge relief with acupuncture. I
went for acupuncture for sinus problems
and ended up having the acupuncturist
treat me for tmj as well. I have had
relief from pain, I still grind my teeth
but much less now(so my husband says), my
jaw does not hurt in the morning and my
jaw has actually shifted into a normal
position. I use to have to yawn out of
the side of my mouth which I do not have
to do now. I can open my mouth wider
without the clicking and grinding. It
only took 4 treatments. I am going for a
5th treatment and that should be the end
of it for now. I just wanted to give
someone some hope that there is help out
there! It might not owrk for everyone but
it is one of those things that will not
hurt to try.
