Massage therapy is a corrective, rehabilitative, and preventive form of health care that helps facilitate recovery from injuries and improve overall health. By expertly manipulating the soft tissue and joints in your body, a registered massage therapist can help alleviate many of the aches and pains that compound after years of physical activity. This form of restoration can be used in conjunction with other practices such as physiotherapy and Pilates to help rehabilitate and recover from injuries or other physical limitations. When living in a fast paced city like Vancouver, massage therapy can be a great way to ease out the tension and stresses that accumulate over time.

Our Yaletown Registered Massage Therapists will recommend custom programs based on your individual needs and response to treatment. These programs may incorporate a variety of techniques such as manual and exercise therapy, intramuscular stimulation, deep tissue and fascial release. If you’re currently following a rehabilitation program, our Massage Therapists will coordinate with our in house physiotherapists, Pilates and yoga instructors to help you reach your goals as quickly and effectively possible.

TMJ -Buccal Massage is primarily an intra-oral practice, focusing on the inside of the mouth, particularly in the buccal pocket in the cheek. An effective buccal massage treats the external aspects of the face as well as broader regions that often harbor postural tensions. These tensions can be transmitted through fascial planes to affect the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and facial expression ... Read More

TMJ -Buccal Massage is primarily an intra-oral practice, focusing on the inside of the mouth, particularly in the buccal pocket in the cheek. An effective buccal massage treats the external aspects of the face as well as broader regions that often harbor postural tensions. These tensions can be transmitted through fascial planes to affect the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and facial expression muscles.

Your RMT will assess what contributes to TMJD, and will look at the neck, jaw, tongue, and breathing.

Benefits of buccal massage may include:

Promoting lymphatic drainage
Relieving Jaw pain
Helping with headache pain
Improving sleep quality

Treatment is provided by our Registered Massage Therapists.
