TMJ & Face Massage + Lymphatic drainage

TMJ & Face massage targets facial and jaw muscles both externally and intraorally, helping to alleviate tension in the head, neck, jaw, and shoulders. By addressing both external facial areas and internal regions prone to tightness, this technique releases tension transmitted through fascial planes, which can impact the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and muscles responsible for facial expressions.

This unique approach promotes relaxation, improves muscle function, and supports overall facial and jaw health, making it a valuable therapeutic tool.

Note: If you are uncomfortable with intraoral massage, we can skip that part.

Treatment is provided by our Registered Massage Therapists.
