JAW EXERCISE: 6x6 method
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 сер 2024
- 🚨 ATTN: Jaw poppers, clickers and lockers...
Usually I recommend muscle massages or releases, but if you're experiencing jaw clicking, popping, locking or a limited range of motion, you need to try this!
💥The 6x6 💥 Do this 6 times, 6 times a day for a total of 36 times/day.
*It's ok if your midline doesn't match up and if your popping and clicking increases after trying this, that's actually a good sign.
If you try this and get some relief, please let me know in the comments! 🙌

Welcome!
I had forgotten about the 6x6!
It’s a good one!
Didn’t click at all first 2 times even though it’s definitely limited ROM, but then started clicking more each time
Great!
When i open my mouth like this it feels like my jaw is levering up on one side, i think i have a ganglion cist in the joint or something because sometimes i can also feels a small hard lump on thr edge of the joint too (although this comes and goes). Is it still safe to do this as it aches when i open that much?
It’s hard for me to say over the internet and without examining you
Will this not just further stretch your tendons?
it really depends. If you're hypermobile (can open more than most people), it could stretch the ligaments a little.
My jaw seems to only pop when I yawn - not when I actively try to open my mouth that wide. Will this still help?
It could, yes.
Ma'am can tmj cause stomach cramps/ bloating?
No it cannot
Thank you for your reply. I often get fever, cough, nausea, Sinus area pain. Can tmj cause this?
Nausea and sinus pain, yes. Fever and cough - no.
do I go to max range?
Close to max but not all the way
