Your starting plan
6–10 visits • weekly. This is a preliminary care plan, not an average time to heal or a guaranteed result.
What to expect
Possible goals: easier chewing and mouth opening with less jaw tension.
After treatment
Avoid hard chewing; practice gentle jaw relaxation and follow dental advice.
How we track progress
Jaw pain, opening, chewing and headaches.
After 2–4 treatments
We will review your response and daily function, then refine your timeline, visit frequency and next steps.
When to seek medical care
Jaw locking, facial swelling, fever or sudden severe pain needs appropriate evaluation.
Acupuncture is supportive care. It does not replace medical diagnosis, necessary treatment or emergency services.
