Tension headaches involve pain in the head, scalp and neck from muscle tightness — most often caused by sustained muscle strain.
Closely related, temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction can cause jaw pain, headaches and limited movement. Massage therapy can reduce the pain, tension, spasm and inflammation behind both.
What to Look For
Our Approach
We don't just chase the headache. We find the muscles and joints driving it, release them, and restore the movement that keeps symptoms from coming back.
We start with a thorough case history and assessment to pinpoint the exact muscles and joints driving your headaches and jaw pain.
Focused hands-on work releases the tight neck, scalp and jaw muscles generating your symptoms — treating the source, not just the ache.
Remedial massage calms the spasm, tension and inflammation behind both tension headaches and TMJ dysfunction.
We work to increase range of motion in the jaw and give you self-care strategies that keep symptoms from returning between sessions.
