You start with your dentist, because it’s your mouth. They find nothing wrong with your teeth and mention stress. You see your doctor, who suggests it’s tension and offers pain relief. Somebody says ENT, because of the ear symptoms. Somebody else says it’s your neck. Eventually a friend mentions bodywork.
