Amazingly it really helped with the muscle spasms in my jaw. I've also used it for headaches and it works. So I think you should give it a try - it an old technique that's been around for a long time so there must be some merit in it - right? Good luck.

Thanks, lynn.

That's a relief - physio said it didn't hurt, but considering how much regular physio stuff hurts I wasn't sure if I should believe him.

Pretty sure it's reputable, it's related to the place that I go to for regular physio and I like it there. What's TMJ? That's good it helped.
