Hello Friends! In this video, I review how to release the sternocleidomastoid muscle (aka the SCM). This muscle is a big and important muscle in the neck, especially when it comes to the range of motion and function of the neck. When the SCM is overused and when it becomes dysfunctional, it can lead to neck pain, jaw pain, and headaches.

If you can release the SCM successfully, you can help to release tension and fibrotic areas that have built up within this muscle which will, in turn, help to relieve symptoms of neck pan, jaw pain, and/or headaches. Please watch and enjoy! Feel free to reach out with any questions or comments.

This channel is all about TMJ disorders what they are, how they manifest, what to do about them and how they relate to other issues that may be going unnoticed in the body such as tongue tie, sleep apnea, ADHD, and more! I will also be posting about being a dentist and a working mommy to two wonderful children. Thank you and I hope you enjoy my videos!
