Experience report: Tension in the face, jaw and neck

Experience report

Tension in the face, jaw and neck

Tension and pain in the neck, face and jaw, plus snoring, waking at night and a dry mouth; five bite splints without success.

“I have something in my hands with which I can help myself.”

I had tension and pain in my neck, face and jaw area, especially on the left side of my face. I snored and woke up 2–3 times a night. My mouth was dry, so I constantly had to drink something.

As a result, I went through a long odyssey from one doctor to the next. A dentist made me five bite splints without success. All efforts were in vain and my pain kept getting worse. Eventually I came to Dr. Berndsen and to FaceFormer therapy.

After a good year of treatment with FaceFormer therapy, I am very happy to be able to report that I no longer have any pain. Despite heavy strain within my family and circle of friends, I am so stable that I can once again manage my everyday life independently and unburdened, without pain and without support, e.g. help from my husband.

I have something in my hands with which I can help myself.

It is hard to believe that such a small thing – the Facy – has given me back so much quality of life!

The free FaceFormer app guides you through the basic exercises, counts along and reminds you of your sessions. If you wish, a practice from the practitioner directory can support you.

FaceFormer training aims to restore the physiological functioning of the basic functions of breathing, swallowing and head balance, with mouth closure and tongue reference position, thereby creating the conditions under which symptoms can improve. It does not replace a medical assessment. You can find practitioners near you in the practitioner directory.
