I treated a very severe TMJ patient with acupuncture, she could not eat anything but liquids. She could not even open her lower jaw one finger wide. She could not even talk properly due to the TMJ decreased the range of motion and pain and after only one treatment she improved noticeably, and after few more acupuncture treatments she could eat solid food and was much better.
