One-Sided Headache: Is it your TMJ? Tests and Exercises.
A one-sided headache is frequently the result of an irritation of the jaw joint (TMJ)
TMJ stands for Temporo Mandibular Joint and this joint sits just in front of your ears.
Irritation of this joint leads to:
* one-sided headaches
* earaches
* jaw pain
* neck and facial pain
* and could lead to occasional locking of the jaw.
In this video, you will find self-tests you can do at home to help determine if your headache is the result of an irritation of the jaw joint.
In the second part of the video, I will demonstrate very effective home exercises which will provide immediate relief.
In the last part of the video, I share 5 tips on prevention with you as prevention is always better than cure!

I have been sooo depressed for 1 year in and out of the doctors office. I just want to sleep all day, very moody, eye aches, ear aches, lower headaches, temple aches. I’m praying for a miracle. 🙏🏼
I just got my tmj adjusted a couple weeks ago and I cried a ton… I couldn’t control it … I’ve been waiting for years for that release. Some chiropractors won’t adjust jaw. And it was amazing. I can open my jaw super huge and I can turn my neck wayyyyyy more then ever before. I was getting headaches on one side. But I haven’t since 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

So glad to hear that this worked for you!!
I didn't even realise some of my lifelong headaches were caused by this. Thanks.🙂👍
You're a hero for providing information and guidance for those of us who aren't even paying you. Thank you for making these videos!
Really impresssiv to see how your subscriptions increase! This video is really great because I am one of the many people who have that problem! Thank you so much!
It’s as if you can hear me talk about my TMJ. I woke up with it two days ago. I will be applying your techniques. Thanks so much!
This was heaven sent today! Thank-you. I've suffered with headaches for a long time and I knew they were from muscular tension, but the exercises and advice today fits oh so well. Thank you again.
That feels so good I have had TMJ for 10 years now

Thank you for the massage exercises; I tried them and it seemed to help some of my pain this Sunday, May 15, 2022.
Thank you very much for this excellent information and guidance... Invaluable and priceless advice..... May God bless you....
Thanks for this. The exercises you suggest have stopped, at least for now, my tinnitus. If I keep doing them perhaps it will go away permanently.
Thank you! Huge help :)

I'm going to try these exercises as they look like they will really help. I had discovered putting pressure on my tongue to keep from clenching and thought it made sense. Wasn't sure I was on the right track and so only did it once in a while. Now that I realize how important it is, I'll try to employ this each time I catch myself clenching. Thanks so much!
Great as everything that you send.Many thanks 😊😚🤗

So is a mouth guard any protection or help for the TMJ? I've used one for quite a few years. I'm going to give the exercises a try thank you!
I'm wondering if the self massage needs to be done for 5 minutes all at once or add up to 5 minutes by the end of the day? For example doing 2 minutes here and there all day or even 30 seconds? Just whenever I get a chance. Thanks!
God Bless you. ❤️ 🌹 ☘️
Brilliant 👍👍🙏🏻

Thanks for these tips. I found a very painful spot on my left cheek and at the back of my neck on the left, so I'm sure the massages will help. I have a broken jaw (broken for 16yrs) and it clicks quite badly and is often painful. Will these massages help to get rid of the clicking?
Alhamdhulillah ....awesome Thanks

My jaw opens straight down, but while going back to closing it moves slightly to the right. Could you please suggest how and what I can do.
Do you have anything for spontaneous clicking of the jaw when your mouth opens ?
Doc, are you familiar with cervical dystonia? I’ve been diagnosed with this umbrella diagnosis to explain some mild head tremors, neck pains and migraines: I’ve been told all I can do is get Botox injections (near my skull? Yikes!) or DBS (double yikes!) or live with it. But I’ve noticed my mandible is wonky, with a slight overjet and leaning to the right a bit, enough to adjust my lips makeup. Do you reckon there’s a connection with TMJs? My regular dentist never said anything... 🤔🦷 Thank you for the very informative videos!! 🤗🤗
Thank you for doing this video..I've suffered for years with my jaw not aligning properly due to years of being punched & smacked in the face by my ex partner...You have given me hope of actually fixing it & not having a wonky jaw or putting up with the crunchy noise every time I open my mouth..😉🤘🖤🕊🇬🇧

Another habit that causes this problem is 'chewing your nails'!
Rubbing one's hands down the face and down the sides of one's head is extremely impractical, at least for me. Face oil, stretching the face, all the hair in the way. It just doesn't work. I'll try the other stuff.
