Has anyone found a way to get real relief from TMJ pain?

Asked by xenializ (327points) March 29th, 2009

I have had TMJ pain for 15 – 20 years that intensifies with stress. I have worn a splint, but that seems to do nothing for the pain, apparently just keeps my teeth from getting worn down. My pain is not as bad as some I’ve read about—I can eat, talk, etc. fine. I just have lots of achiness and soreness. Has anyone tried massage or self-massage? What works for you?
