Try sticking your thumb in your mouth and holding it against the muscle that slackens as you close your mouth. Press against the masseter with your thumb and forfinger (pointer outside of your mouth) and feel around for two spots that are really tender towards the bottom and top of the muscle. Pinch behind the spot and pull towards the front of your mouth. It should hurt like a motherfucker (I don't have ringing and it just hurt like a motherfucker to give you an idea.) Work that in one direction for about sixty seconds with pressure at a pain level of like 7 on the scale 1-10. Do it like six times a day If your jaw relaxes after a few days then buy the book and get educated | ||
