The TMJ is responsible for the movement of the jaw, allowing us to chew, speak, and perform various facial expressions. Understanding the anatomy and function of the TMJ can help us maintain proper jaw alignment and prevent issues such as jaw pain, headaches, back pain and difficulty in eating or speaking.

Incorporating massages and stretches for the jaw muscles can promote relaxation, reduce tension, and alleviate symptoms of jaw-related conditions like temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD).
