Your therapist will start by releasing the muscles in the upper back and shoulders. They will also work through your collar bone, chest, and neck to help relax all of the areas surrounding and connected to the temporomandibular joint.
There are two main methods to a TMJ massage, the first being extra-orally, or outside of the mouth. When working outside, your therapist will focus on your chewing muscles around the face.
The second method is intra-orally, or in the mouth. Prior to beginning intra-oral massage, your practitioner will put on a pair of gloves.
Deanna shared that she breaks the intra-oral massage down into sections to allow for breaks for clients to swallow. The sensation can be quite intense because we use these muscles regularly but do not often receive or self-administer massage there.
When in the mouth, she begins in between the cheek and teeth, with the muscles at the back of the mouth. Then she moves to the outside of the teeth and massages the medial pterygoid, which is the muscle that moves our jaw from side to side when we are chewing

En quoi ça consiste
Most of the hour is spent on the table while the therapist works through the areas you’ve agreed to focus on — pressure, pace and techniques shifting as they go — with a brief check-in before and after so you leave knowing what was worked on.
