TMJ & Jaw Massage
Massage treatment for muscular tension, tightness and discomfort affecting the jaw, face and neck.
Treatment may include external massage and, where appropriate and with your consent, intra oral massage techniques.
What is TMJ & Jaw Massage?
TMJ & Jaw Massage is a treatment-focused service for muscular tension, tightness and discomfort affecting the jaw, face, neck and surrounding soft tissues.
Treatment can include external massage around the jaw, face and neck and, where appropriate, intra oral massage techniques to work with muscles that are accessed from inside the mouth.
Intra oral techniques are only used where appropriate and with your consent. They are one part of the wider treatment and are not required for every patient.
This service is focused on massage treatment and symptom management. It does not provide a physiotherapy diagnosis or clinical assessment of TMJ dysfunction.

- Muscular tension around the jaw, face or neck
- Jaw or facial tightness
- Muscle soreness associated with clenching or grinding
- Tension affecting chewing or comfortable jaw movement
- Neck and facial muscle tension associated with jaw symptoms

Is TMJ & Jaw Massage right for you?

Treatment may include external massage to the jaw, face and neck and, where appropriate and with your consent, intra oral massage techniques.
