What is Intra-Oral Massage?

Intra-oral massage is a specialized form of massage therapy that focuses on the muscles and tissues inside the mouth. This type of massage can be highly effective for individuals experiencing Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) pain or dysfunction, which is characterized by pain and discomfort in the jaw joint and surrounding muscles.

During an intra-oral massage session, a trained therapist will use gloved fingers to apply gentle pressure and manipulate the muscles and tissues inside the mouth. By targeting these specific areas, they can help to release tension and reduce pain in the TMJ and surrounding muscles.

In addition to relieving pain, intra-oral massage can also help to improve overall jaw function and reduce symptoms such as clicking or popping in the jaw. It is a safe and non-invasive treatment option that can be highly effective for many individuals with TMJ pain or dysfunction.

If you are experiencing TMJ pain or discomfort, consider trying intra-oral massage as a natural and effective way to address your symptoms and improve your overall jaw function.
