How TMJ Leads to Face and Neck Tension

Saturday, September 26, 2026 · 9:00 AM PDT · 60 minutes, live

You wake with your teeth already together and no memory of putting them there. By mid-morning it has spread — a band across the temples, pressure behind the eyes, one side of the neck tighter than the other.

The jaw isn't a hinge working alone. Clench it, and the tension travels through the same fascial sheet into the temples, the base of the skull and the front of the throat. This class works it from the other direction.

What you'll get:

  • 60 minutes live with Jules — guided fascia release for the masseter, temporalis, pterygoids, the floor of the mouth, the suboccipitals and the throat
  • The full sequence taught step by step — where to find each structure and how much pressure is enough. No experience needed.
  • A two-minute daily practice you can do in the car, at your desk, or in bed

Somatic movement education, not treatment for a medical or dental condition. If you have a diagnosed TMJ disorder or ongoing jaw pain, this works alongside your dentist's or physician's care, not in place of it.
