What is TMJ disorder and how can massage therapy help?

TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disorder affects the jaw joint and surrounding muscles, causing jaw pain, clicking, headaches, and difficulty chewing. Professional massage therapy for TMJ includes specialized intraoral and external jaw massage techniques to release muscle tension, reduce inflammation, improve jaw mobility, and provide lasting relief from TMJ symptoms. Most patients see significant improvement within 3-6 treatment sessions.

What is athletic massage therapy used for?

Athletic massage therapy is designed for athletes and active individuals to enhance athletic performance, prevent sports injuries, speed up muscle recovery, reduce muscle soreness, treat sports-related injuries, and improve flexibility. It includes advanced techniques like deep tissue massage, myofascial release, shockwave therapy, Graston technique, active release therapy (ART), and assisted stretching. Recommended weekly for in-season athletes and bi-weekly for maintenance.
