TMJ & Jaw Tension Massage

Give the muscles around your jaw thoughtful attention. This focused massage considers the jaw alongside the surrounding face, neck and shoulders, with pressure and pacing adapted for your comfort in these sensitive areas.

A conversation comes first

Before the session, share where you notice tightness, whether you tend to clench and what feels comfortable. Let your therapist know about relevant dental or medical concerns so you can discuss the scope of the massage before beginning.

Your preferences continue to guide the work. You can ask for lighter pressure, a different area of focus or a pause at any time. No particular level of pressure is required, and the session is not a test of how much sensation you can tolerate.

Focused attention, clear boundaries

Unlike a full-body relaxation session, this appointment centers on jaw-related tension and nearby muscles. The aim is a comfortable massage experience, not diagnosis or dental treatment. If you are unsure whether massage fits your situation, contact us and discuss your concerns with a qualified medical or dental professional.

Your questions, answered

Does this service diagnose or treat a TMJ disorder?

No. TMJ refers to the jaw joint; this service focuses on massage for surrounding muscle tension. It does not diagnose jaw conditions or replace assessment by a dentist or medical professional.

Will the session include my neck and shoulders?

Those areas may be included as part of the planned focus. Explain where you want attention and discuss the intended approach with your therapist before the massage begins.

Massage does not replace medical or dental care. Ask about the planned techniques before booking.
