Even in the cold and deep snowfall, getting outside can do wonders for your body and mind. Fresh air, gentle movement, and especially the quiet that comes with deep snow can help calm the nervous system, reduce stress, and improve mental clarity.

Listening to the subtle sounds of nature — the crunch of snow underfoot, a stream flowing beneath the ice, and the stillness between breaths — allows your body to slow down, lower tension, and reset. You don’t need a long hike… just a few intentional minutes outdoors can make a difference.

Bundle up, take a deep breath, and let nature do its thing. 🤍

Jaw pain, clicking, headaches, or neck tension? It might be more than “just stress.” 💜 Read more on our latest blog post 👇

At Accel Physical Therapy, we treat TMJ dysfunction by looking at the jaw and the neck together. Our approach includes:

✔️ Hands-on techniques to improve jaw and neck mobility
✔️ Targeted exercises to improve posture and jaw resting position
✔️ Stretching to reduce tension in the neck and jaw

The goal: less pain, better movement, and a jaw that actually feels relaxed again. 😌

If TMJ symptoms are holding you back, we’re here to help.

Stretch to Release Neck Tension: SCM Stretch You Can Do Anywhere 👇

If you’re feeling neck tightness or forward-head posture, this stretch targets the sternocleidomastoid (SCM) — a key muscle that contributes to neck pain, headaches, and shoulder tension.

To perform the stretch:
✨ Sit tall and gently look up and away from the side of the neck you want to stretch.
✨ You can support your head in one of two ways:
• Place your hands behind your neck to support the cervical spine as you lean and rotate slightly — this helps control the movement.
• Or place one hand on the clavicle (collarbone) on the side you’re stretching, with the other hand on top — this helps stabilize the shoulder and chest as you lengthen the SCM.

Hold the stretch for 20–30 seconds, breathing deeply. Repeat 2–3 times each side, and remember — no pain, just gentle lengthening. 🙌

Pet of the Week: Earl Grey 🐾

Meet Earl Grey, our cozy domestic shorthair who has clearly mastered the art of winter rest 😴. Another sleeping superstar reminding us all to get our Z’s while the days are still short.

Fun fact: Holding a sleeping cat can actually be good for your health! A cat’s gentle purring has been shown to help lower stress, reduce blood pressure, and promote relaxation—basically built-in therapy. We approve.

Sleep well, stay warm, and take notes from Earl Grey 🐱💤

The Power of Your Jaw 🦷💪

Did you know your jaw is one of the strongest muscle systems in your body for its size?
The main chewing muscle (the masseter) works every time you talk, chew, yawn, or clench.

When jaw muscles get tight or overworked, it can lead to:
• Jaw pain or clicking
• Headaches
• Neck and shoulder tension

Keeping the jaw relaxed and strong supports better posture, breathing, and overall comfort. Physical therapy can help address jaw tension and movement patterns that affect more than just your mouth.

Your jaw does a lot — it deserves some care too.

The Anatomy of the Face & Jaw 💆🏼‍♀️

The muscles of the face and jaw play a major role in how you move, feel, and even hold yourself upright.

🔹 Major muscle groups include:
• Masseter – one of the strongest muscles in the body, responsible for powerful chewing
• Temporalis – stabilizes the jaw and assists with closing the mouth
• Medial & Lateral Pterygoids – guide jaw movement side-to-side and forward
• Suprahyoid & Infrahyoid muscles – connect the jaw, neck, and throat
• Facial expression muscles – influence tension patterns across the face and head

🧍‍♂️ Posture matters.
Forward head posture, rounded shoulders, and neck tension can overload the jaw muscles—while jaw clenching and dysfunction can, in turn, affect neck and upper-body posture. It’s a two-way street.

At Accel Physical Therapy, we look beyond the jaw itself to treat the whole system—because powerful muscles need balanced support to function their best.
