Now that you have gently massaged the muscles along the jaw, it is time to stretch them out. The motion is very similar to the motion you did along the maxillary sinuses.

Take your thumbs and place them on the chin. Rest your fingers along each side of your face. Your fingers should basically be touching your ears, or somewhere near there. And although your palms will not be touching the face, they are faced towards the nose and cheeks. In this position, your elbows are likely to stick out a bit so be aware of your seatmates.

From the chin you gently push the thumbs in and drag them slowly along the skin, up the jaw line until you reach the joint (TMJ, or temporomandibular joint). As you pull your thumbs upward, your hands will move away from each other. It is almost the sensation of a smile pulling your muscles upward.
