Thank you Dr.Todd that was great I'm going to try that.
Ps. Do mean also for people who grind their teeth not just at night but also during the day?
How often should they do it?

[@SportsChiropractic]

Sarah A. - Thanks for the comment! It's helpful to do it once to twice per day. For the daytime grinders, becoming aware of when they are doing it and trying to retrain that habit is most effective. Mouth guards are also good to prevent damage but the issue is to stop/limit the grinding.

Hi, Isle of Skye bake,s sorry to hear your problems. Please see exercises for fibromyalgia and diet for it. But the chiropractor can't show you the solution for your problems.
