TMJ massage, short for Temporomandibular Joint massage, is a specialized therapeutic technique designed to alleviate discomfort and tension in the jaw area. This treatment targets the temporomandibular joint, which connects the jawbone to the skull, and the surrounding muscles. TMJ disorders can lead to pain, stiffness, headaches, and even difficulty in opening and closing the mouth. TMJ massage involves skilled manipulation of these muscles, often incorporating techniques like deep tissue massage, myofascial release, and trigger point therapy. It aims to reduce muscle tension, increase circulation, and improve joint mobility, offering relief to individuals suffering from TMJ-related issues. Regular TMJ massage can contribute to enhanced jaw function and overall well-being.
