TMJ massage
TMJD (Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction) can present in a number of different ways, including headaches, neck tension, ear pain, clicking/tension/pain/tiredness in and around the joint connecting the jaw, cheekbone, and skull. Clenching, grinding, one-sided chewing, constant mask-use, physical trauma, etc can all contribute to increased tension in the muscles and connective tissue acting on the jaw.
A TMJ massage can effectively treat many forms of TMJD and will typically include intra- and extra-oral massage of the muscles of the jaw, head, and neck, followed by after care that you can do at home. All COVID protocols are very carefully followed during this service.
