Details

First apply the optional aloe gel to really make this process frictionless. Next bring out your TMJ Pen, and set both the heat and vibration to your desired levels. While it heats up, use your thumb of your opposite hand to reach far back into your cheek. Gently bite to feel the muscle contract, and locate a tender spot. Using the heated metal tip, meet your thumb at the tender spot, and apply pressure while slowly massaging the area. Hold for around 60 seconds, and repeat for every tender spot. Wash your hands before trying this exercises, and remember to remain within your comfort level. Follow for more!

Do this exercise 1-2x a Day

WARNING: Do not use the heat setting on one spot for more than 5 minutes at risk of skin irritation 

Remember we CANNOT prescribe specific exercises. So try them all but proceed with caution. If something doesn't feel right don't continue with the exercise.
