Hi Hanna, we're so glad to hear about your positive results! Keep up the great work. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. All the best, Felix
It is not an app but instead a website.
The exercises seem great but i have only done the first few days, mainly as this in not an app, it doesn't work well on my iphone and i have to go to my desktop PC to get the videos of the exercises to play well. I don't want to go on my computer at bedtime to listen to the meditation or do the exercises , and when i try to access on phone it keeps failing. After a few times of trying i gave up and have not got round to trying it again. In fairness i have not contacted the company to see if they can help as have been too busy but will try soon. However i am very disappointed that they describe it as an app when it isnt at an app. If i had known that i probably would not have purchased it.

Update:
Following our reply below, we have carefully re-tested the training on several iPhone devices and have not been able to reproduce the issue described here. While this suggests the problem may be device- or setup-specific, we take all feedback seriously.
We have reached out to the reviewer directly and hope to connect soon so we can better understand what happened and offer support - whether that means helping them access the training smoothly or finding an alternative solution that feels right for them. Our support team is always happy to hear from you.

Hi Afshan,
Thank you for sharing this so openly - user experience and honest feedback really matter to us. That’s how we all grow. We’re genuinely sorry for the frustration you’ve experienced.
You’re absolutely right to name this: Kieferfreund is currently a browser-based app, rather than a native App Store download, and we completely understand how disappointing that can feel - especially when you’re trying to relax at bedtime and don’t want to go near a computer.
To offer a bit of context (not as an excuse):
For over 8 years, Kieferfreund was a native app, built from scratch. We made the decision to move to a browser-based version because it allows people to use the program across multiple devices and enables us to improve and update content much more quickly. For the vast majority of users this works well - but your experience clearly shows that this isn’t true for everyone.
The issues you describe with videos failing to play on mobile aren’t something we hear often, but they are also not something you should have to push through or troubleshoot alone. It makes complete sense that after a few attempts - especially while busy - you stepped away.
If you’re open to it, we’d love to help. If you get in touch with support - we can send you a few ideas that may help make your training experience smoother on mobile. We would really like to support you to achieve great results as well.
And if it still doesn’t feel right, we can of course explore a refund, if the format simply isn’t suitable for you.
Either way, your feedback is valid - we hear you - and we’re grateful you took the time to share it. It genuinely helps us improve both the platform and how clearly we communicate.
All the best,
Felix, Julia & the Kieferfreund Team
Overall great service
Overall great service. Had a problem with my digital access following the order. I got a quick, helpful response to my enquiry from Felix. He also kindly arranged for the physical products I'd ordered to be sent more quickly.
The lessons are good although the site design could be better and the written instructions have a couple of errors or aren't as clear as they could be.
I've had a good reduction in the impact of teeth grinding since starting the jaw yoga 19 days ago. It hasn't stopped though.
I think the jaw roller is good and use it daily. I personally didn't find the tongue position tool that helpful - but I suspect that's a me thing and it will work for some people.
I rate the meditations as average. To be fair, I do have very high expectations and very specific preferences on guided meditations (I use Insight Timer and only like a small number of the teachers). So please don't let my preference influence you - give it a try.
Overall, I think the jaw yoga is worth the money I paid for it if I continue to do as well as I am currently. Considering what I've previously spent on other products or chiropracty to try and reduce or relieve the symptons, this is very good value.

Hi Marie,
Thank you for taking the time to share this wonderful and honest review with us and our community!
What stands out to me is the great progress you’ve made in just 19 days. That shows you’ve likely been consistent and embraced the training fully. We celebrate you for that! Keep it up and do feel free to check-in at any time 😊
Some people do 2-3 cycles of the training until they are ‘free from’ grinding, this greatly depends on what a person needs for their system to come back into balance. As you mentioned you don’t get on with the tongue trainer that well, it could be worth to dropping into Julia’s weekly Open Office (if you aren’t already joining). She will be able to show you how to get the most out of it and also provide guidance on what your system may benefit from the most.
Hurray to you enjoying and using the jaw roller daily – it’s a great tool to have in your toolkit!
Thank you for your feedback regarding the descriptions and jaw meditations. Both will get a fresh make-over this year, so if you have any specific feedback, you are welcome let us know via e-mail - this will help make them better for others 😊
I’m not sure if you’ve taken a look at our jaw meditation add-on? There we have a broader choice and possibly some tracks that resonate with you. I totally understand having a specific preference. Thank you for phrasing your review with such care and nuance.
Ahh we’re so happy to hear about you feeling you received great value from Kieferfreund & Jaw Yoga. When we learn the skills to give ourselves a good chance to keep our jaw healthy for life, it’s a gift that keeps giving!
From all of us at Kieferfreund: Wishing you continued success & thanks again for your thoughtfulness. Happy New Year, Marie!

Thank you for your feedback and for pointing this out.
We're really sorry to hear about the impact this seemed to have had on you. Please rest assured, that is never our intention.
We had to move the exercises to a different hosting platform for technical reasons, and as a temporary solution, the link redirected to our similar 2-day Kickstart program.
The original exercise videos mentioned in the book are now available again. If you would like early access before the public link is restored, you’re very welcome to contact us via email. Your message will be received with appreciation — there’s absolutely no judgment. We’ll be glad to help you :)
As a small company, reviews have a big impact on us. This single review dropped our overall rating from 4.7 to 4.4. Now that the exercises are back, we’d be grateful if you might consider updating your review — it would help reflect the current situation and support us in continuing to create helpful resources for our community.
All the best,
Felix & Team

Hi Suzanne - thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us
Discipline does play a role, but more than anything it’s about gentle consistency — those small daily actions that slowly build lasting change.
If you’d like some extra support to keep the momentum going, you’re always welcome to drop into our open office sessions. They’re a great way to fuel your practice and stay on course.
We’re delighted you enjoy the exercises and look forward to seeing your continued progress!
All the best,

The exercises are subtle
The exercises are subtle, but I definitely felt a difference over time, and using the meditations app helped me get through the underlying causes of my jaw pain. Definitely worth the price, especially since what I learn from it can still be applied even after my subscription ends.

Hi Richard, thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We're so thrilled to hear about your progress. Keep up the great work! You're right - the exercises are subtly 'unwinding' the tension many of us build up (subtly) over the years. With the jaw roller and the meditations we can then do more targeted work on top of that. It's great to hear you are embracing it all and are reaping the benefits. Fully agree - we're all about helping you find the tools you need to go on your path independently. Thanks again & do feel free to stay in touch. - Felix & Team
Improves other areas of pain besides TMJ
I started the Kieferfreund exercises almost two years ago and they have helped me tremendously to lower my jaw pain and muscle tension dysphonia. I always do the 3 week program, take a break for a month or two and then do the 3 weeks again. I love the fascia roller which I use a lot and even take with me for travelling. I also attended some of the live classes which I found very helpful. Overall a great program that I highly recommend!

It’s wonderful to hear how the program and the fascia roller have supported you with jaw pain and muscle tension dysphonia over the past two years. We’re also delighted that the live classes were helpful for you and that the fascia roller even travels with you! ✈️
We truly appreciate your time and kind words - and wish you continued ease and success on your journey. 💙

After only the first day of the course my jaw clenching and grinding was greatly diminished. I'm feeling so much better and only wish that someone had taught me these tools sooner...neither my dentist nor my orofacial pain doctor taught me what I learned from the Kieferfreund training. I'm so glad that I found this!

Completed 21 day Jaw yoga
I was able to switch from the German to the English version and am very satisfied with the support I have had to date from the Kieferfreund Team.
January 6, 2025
If you have any kind of jaw pain..
If you have any kind of jaw pain or tension I would highly recommend kieferfreund. I just finished my 21 day program and I feel like a different person. I am more calm, more clear headed and I have more energy which is crazy because I'm already an energetic person. I'm sleeping better, I don't need my night guard anymore, so I feel well rested in the morning. I've tried many things including botox in my jaw to try and relax it, and this is by far the best way to go.
I love the holistic approach, the app is super easy to follow, and the videos are fantastic, from the instructional ones to the meditations, and they are very responsive when I email with questions.
It all makes so much sense once you learn about jaw health. I really can't say enough how transforming this has been for me.

Hi Lisa - Wow! Thank you so much for sharing your experience with Kieferfreund. It’s amazing to hear how much the 21-day program has improved not only your jaw health but also your overall well-being. We celebrate you for putting in the work and getting your head around the training. Well done :)!
We're glad that you connected with the holistic approach and found the app, videos, and meditations easy to follow and supportive. And it’s wonderful to hear that you no longer need your night guard! (Yay!)
Your journey is truly inspiring, and we’re so grateful to be part of it. Wishing you continued relaxation and clarity 💙
- Take care of your smile.

Extremely Disappointed
After decades of unrelenting pain, I was so excited when I first came across your content that I allowed myself to go beyond my budgetary constraints to purchase the app, having soothed my fears with two justifications: 1. that you included lifetime access to the app, and 2. that my symptoms would improve so much that I could work to make up for the $ difference. Sadly, I was sorely mistaken. Now, not only have I been charged another fee beyond my budget, but my request to cancel before ANOTHER expensive fee is charged has been returned, address unknown. I am at a total loss as to how to handle this overwhelming and growing cost, as well as my jaw's natural reaction to my simmering rage. I have had no room in my mind or body to engage with your content due to the language barrier, my lack of tech expertise and especially my mounting fury. I feel disregarded, disrespected, and frustrated at your lack of integrity with me from the start, at your response when I learned only a few months after my initial investment that I was in fact NOT entitled to lifetime access DESPITE YOUR CLEAR PROMISE in writing on your site before my initial payment. I understand that everything, including apps, evolve over time, but I believed your words on the screen and was heartbroken at your refusal to honor that agreement by allowing me access to the new version.
I never spend more than $20 without doing in-depth research, which I did. I trusted you because of what I read and because of your affiliation with Insight Timer. I would never have signed up with your company without the promise of lifetime access because 1. I know my tech skills would require disproportionate time and assistance from others, and 2. my symptoms are so deeply entrenched that they'll require painstaking repetition over a long period of time.
To say I'm disappointed is a massive understatement. Please please please cancel my automatic payments immediately and I would deeply appreciate a refund if you've already charged me again.
If by any chance you have a change of heart regarding the lifetime access I was so excited about, I'd eagerly learn your content and write another review. I'm aching with need for your ideas, but my experience with your company has left me deflated and disillusioned.

Dear Mary Alice,
I’m truly sorry to hear about your disappointing experience. It sounds like there has been significant miscommunication. I deeply regret the frustration and pain this has caused you.
I’ve already reached out to you via email to address your concerns directly and ensure that your automatic payments are canceled immediately. We’re committed to working with you to resolve this issue and alleviate the stress it’s caused.
Please know that your well-being and journey to holistic jaw health are incredibly important to us. I look forward to working together to resolve this and, hopefully, get you back on track with the support you deserve.
Warm regards,

Effective Program
I really like the roller. The video for the roller did not work at all. I found the tactile points on the tongue trainer too tiny to feel if my tongue were in the right position. It would be nice to have a few different meditations.

Reply from Kieferfreund
Dear Carol, thank you so much for being part of Kieferfreund and your honest review!
We're glad to hear you are finding the program effective, we wish you continued results - keep up the great work.
Regarding the Fascia Roller video, I just checked and it's working in the app. Please message our support team if it's not loading for you, I'm sure we can help.
Regarding the Tongue Trainer: It's great you are developing a sense of your tongue and what you can/can't feel. Yes, for some people the tactical points can be a little difficult to sense at first. The idea is that with training your tongue becomes stronger and more sensitive. You can then better atune to the tongue's resting position and sensations such as the tactile points. We would advise to keep using it and track any changes in your ability to feel the points. You may be surprised :)
Thank you for your feedback regarding the meditation - great news is that we have a new jaw meditation add-on with over 30 different jaw meditations (charged on a monthly basis only for as long as you need it).
If you require any further assistance, feel free to reach out any time and to join our live sessions :)
All the best,
Felix & Team

A Global Reach! I’m now an Australian Jaw Yoga Instructor! Not even a 5 star review could give justice to this amazing company and its holistic approach to lifelong healing and health!
As you will see from my Trust pilot reviews, the Kieferfreund company and model comes highly recommended at every interaction presented to me. Now a qualified Jaw Yoga Instructor, this was just an added bonus as I not only gained the ability to be provided lifelong tools and education to heal my own condition, but I was provided with a deeper understanding as to the inter-connectedness of how stress truly affects our nervous system. Kieferfreund’s approach is top down and their results speak for themselves. Healing lifelong jaw pain, together with providing people the confidence to believe that they have control over their own pain and healing was a miraculous milestone accomplished. Julia is one of the most talented and beautiful human beings I have ever met. She is her authentic self and dedicated to bringing her wisdom globally. Felix’s accompanying products are also essential, as are the movement offerings, in order to bring the whole body journey into its own full health. Thank you to all for instilling in me a lifelong commitment of bringing healing to not only myself but now others too. I’m forever thankful 🙏

Dedication
As someone who has had TMJ for forty years, I can confirm that these exercises and the method really relieve pain and cracking; however, you have to be dedicated and learn to keep your tongue sucked to the roof of your mouth. I purchased the App years ago and am very happy with my progress.
