Serena Arora Details 6-Step Yoga Routine for Jaw and Sacrum Tension

Summary
A six-step sequence from yoga therapist Serena Arora targets jaw and sacrum tension with floor-based movements, breathwork, and self-massage using a tennis ball and mat.
Arora says stress often drives jaw clenching and that the jaw and sacrum “mirror each other,” making both areas worth treating together even though research on the link remains limited.
The routine moves from side lengthening and spinal undulation to sacral release, TMJ massage, neck release, and a short savasana, with most exercises repeated 4-5 times per side.
One small study cited in the report found people with chronic temporomandibular disorders had significantly different sacral positions from healthy individuals, pointing to a possible biomechanical connection.
