Focused work on the muscles that open, close and clench your jaw, along with the temples, neck and upper back that load them. For jaw pain, clenching and the headaches that come with it.
A lot of jaw pain comes from the muscles around the joint, held tight by clenching, stress or posture. Easing those muscles often gives the jaw room to move comfortably again.
Massage doesn't replace your dentist's or doctor's care. It works alongside it.
Anna works the jaw, face, temples, neck and shoulders, adjusting pressure to what the tissue can take. These are the presentations it's most often booked for.
Tender, overworked jaw muscles eased with slow, sustained pressure.
Night-time grinding leaves the jaw muscles exhausted by morning. Massage complements the night guard your dentist provides.
Tight spots in the temples, jaw and base of the skull can refer pain into the head. Releasing them often eases the headache.
A forward-head posture loads the jaw. Work on the neck and upper back takes pressure off it.
Tight muscles can make opening, chewing or yawning feel restricted. Gentle release helps the jaw move more comfortably.
Stress often lands in the jaw first. A focused session helps the whole head and neck let go.
TMJ work is part of a standard 60-minute medical massage. Anna combines jaw and facial release with the neck, shoulders and upper back, where much of the tension starts.
