TMJ Massage
Description
Do you suffer from jaw pain, possibly with related headaches, or difficulty chewing? Do you clench or grind your teeth? These issues are commonly seen in patients with Temporomandibular Joint Disorder (TMJD), and are addressed with TMJ Massage. During a TMJ massage, your therapist may work externally on muscles of the head, neck, and scalp. Other muscles involved in the function of the TMJ are accessed from inside the mouth. Tanya Thomlinson, RMT has taken specialized courses to become certified in intraoral TMJ massage. With intraoral massage, your therapist will wear gloves and use light pressure of a single finger or thumb to palpate and relax the tiny yet important muscles to help alleviate and manage your TMJ-related pain.
