Buccal (TMJ) Massage

Relieve jaw pain, headaches, and upper body tension.

What Is Buccal (TMJ) Massage?

This 60-minute session is focused on relieving tension in the jaw, head, neck, and upper extremities. Using a combination of gentle intraoral (inside the mouth) and external myofascial release techniques, I address the key muscles involved in TMJ dysfunction and related tension patterns.

While many people think of TMJ as just a jaw issue, the tension often radiates throughout the head, neck, shoulders, and even down the arms. This treatment takes a whole-body approach to provide lasting relief.
