The VR glasses which were the source of visual and auditory feedback, were connected by Bluetooth to a mobile phone and all the videos of selected tasks (tasks of Active mobility exercises and isometric contraction exercises, massage exercises) were turned on. Active mobility exercises (jaw opening 6 times of 30 s; lateralization 10 times of 5 s; protrusion 10 times Of 5 s).
