TMJ Massage

Relieve Tension and Discover Jaw Comfort

This specialized therapy is designed to address the discomfort and tension often associated with the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). Our skilled massage therapists offer a soothing and targeted approach to help you find relief from TMJ-related issues. Let's explore what TMJ massage entails, its remarkable advantages, and why you should consider incorporating this gentle healing technique into your wellness journey.

What is a TMJ Massage?

TMJ massage is a therapeutic technique that focuses on the temporomandibular joint, which connects the jawbone to the skull. This joint is vital for chewing, talking, and various jaw movements. However, stress, teeth grinding, misalignment, or other factors can lead to TMJ-related issues, causing pain and discomfort in the jaw, face, neck, and even headaches. TMJ massage focuses on treating the jaw and releasing the surrounding muscles/fascia in the mouth and jaw. Treatment will include intraoral massage of the chewing muscles and focus on the neck, shoulders, head, and face to alleviate tension and promote relaxation in the area.

What are the Benefits of a TMJ Massage?

  • Pain Relief: Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction often leads to jaw pain, clicking in the jaw, facial pain around the ears and forehead, and headaches. TMJ massage can effectively reduce muscle tension and ease pain in the affected areas, providing much-needed relief.
  • ​Stress Reduction: The jaw muscles can hold a significant amount of stress and tension. TMJ massage helps release this tension, promoting overall relaxation and reducing stress levels.
  • Improved Jaw Function: By addressing muscle tightness and imbalances around the TMJ, this massage technique can enhance jaw mobility and improve functional movements like chewing and talking.
  • Alleviates Teeth Grinding: Bruxism, or teeth grinding, is a common cause of TMJ disorders. TMJ massage can help relax the jaw muscles, potentially reducing teeth grinding-related symptoms.
  • Reduces Headaches: Tension in the jaw area can lead to tension headaches. TMJ massage can alleviate this tension, leading to a decrease in headache frequency and intensity.
