Not really, acupressure is quite limited - particularly when you have something that can have much deeper contributing factors (possibly things such as anxiety, cervical disc issues, sinus issues, other structural problems, etc.).
While likely not comprehensive enough in clinical reality our acupuncture for TMJ page has some general pointers. Some of those, particularly LI 4, SI 3 and LV 3 can be used to some affect with acupressure.
