People with TMJ have a great amounts of discomfort and pain in the neck and jaw area. They may also experience migraines and may even have fibromyalgia eventually. Some "experts" claim TMJ is caused by continued movement of the jaw beyond its normal limits, such as forward or sideways, which may in turn be caused by excessive gum chewing, nail biting, dental neglect, or trauma (accident). Yet despite avoiding all its known causes, many individuals still suffer from TMJ. What could be causing this? Could it be due to a new, exciting cause that would make one take a new look at TMJ? Well, not really. Although not many know about these new causes, they should not surprise anyone because these are what causes TMJ in the first place. The first cause would be due to anxiety. You're probably familiar with this. Your muscles tighten, you tremble, and your jaw stiffens when you feel scared, apprehensive, or anxious. When you deal with anxiety on a regular basis, what do you think happens to you? Remember the times when you feel occasional aches and pains that seem to pop out of nowhere. Did you ever wonder why there never seems to be a physical cause for these pains? Well, the reason is clear now. When you automatically set your jaw everytime you have stress, it may ultimately add up to a TMJ problem. The second cause is wrong body positioning. Our parents have often told us to sit up and walk straight when we were kids. You probably did not listen if you are suffering from back problems now. The same goes for TMJ. Many of us have incorrect jaw positions - it may be too far out or in. And surprisingly, sitting the wrong way (or too much) can do this. On the Discovery Channel, you've probably seen women in third world countries carrying heavy loads directly on top of their heads. Ever wonder how they manage to carry these loads day after day and not suffer from any shoulder, neck, and jaw problems? The simple reason is because they carry the loads directly over their heads. This makes the muscles in their neck and shoulders sustain the weight the way they are naturally designed to do. But as soon as the women tip their heads forward, the weight would instantly cause them to tip forward and lose their balance. See the connection? When your head is straight over the body, it is not heavy. But when you lean forward, it makes it heavier. Your neck and shoulder muscles are not designed to carry the extra load, so your jaw helps out to keep the head level. Over time, the extra strain manifests in a TMJ disorder. In any case, most doctors prescribe painkillers to ease the pain of TMJ, but these medications rarely work in the long term. These medications may ease the pain temporarily, but do nothing to alleviate TMJ's root causes. My TMJ No More program does just that. With simple exercises that relax the muscles around the TMJ and restore the jaw's natural position, it addresses TMJ at its source, effectively ending the misery caused by this disorder. Does it work? Evidently, as hundreds of my customers who have tried it themselves have said so. Check it out and see what brought the smiles back on their faces.
