Clenching your jaw? Grinding your teeth? You’re not alone.

Jaw clenching and teeth grinding (often without realizing it) can overload the temporalis and other jaw muscles, leading to headaches, facial pain, TMJ irritation, and neck tension.

One of the biggest steps in treatment is **awareness**.

Try these simple tips:
• Check in during the day — are your teeth touching? They should be slightly apart at rest

• Keep your tongue resting gently on the roof of your mouth

• Relax your shoulders and let your jaw feel heavy

• Avoid chewing gum or clenching during stress

• Practice slow nasal breathing to reduce tension

At Physiohaus, we often combine manual therapy, exercise, education, and acupuncture/dry needling to help calm overactive jaw muscles.

Small changes + the right treatment plan can make a big difference.

Teamwork makes the difference 🙌

This week, we reviewed a video case study of a patient with scapular winging and significant shoulder dysfunction.

By sharing ideas and applying the latest knowledge, we build treatment plans that give our patients the best chance at strong, lasting outcomes.

Proud of the teamwork and learning culture at Physiohaus.

🏃‍♀️ We’re cheering for all the amazing cross country runners across London this month🎉
Running builds strength, confidence, and lifelong health — here’s why science says it’s awesome 👇

📚 Why Running Rocks (Science-Backed!)
- Just 5–10 mins/day of easy running lowers risk of heart disease + early death [Lee et al., J Am Coll Cardiol, 2014].
- Improves heart fitness, body composition, and metabolism [Lee et al., Prog Cardiovasc Dis, 2015].
- Boosts mood + mental health — the “runner’s high” is real! [Raichlen et al., Front Psychol, 2021].

🩺 How Physio Keeps You Running Strong
- Scans run mechanics and efficiency
- Builds hip, core + ankle strength
- Guides safe training progressions
- Helps you recover after tough runs

💡 Quick Tips for Young Runners
- Warm up dynamically (5–10 min jog + drills).
- Increase slowly — 10% per week is plenty.
- Strength train 2–3x/week.
- Listen to your body — small pains matter.

😁 Have fun + cheer each other on! 🎽
