TMJology strives to offer several options to address the needs for as many patients as possible. Not sure where to start? Schedule your free 30-minute program consultation to review your symptoms. From there, we will make the decision together about the program that will best fit your needs. The evaluation can be completed by phone or Zoom.

1.Comprehensive Health History & Fascial System Review

• Client Intake: Gather a full history of:
*Dental work (orthodontics, surgeries, appliances
*History of jaw trauma, clenching/grinding, facial injuries
*Symptoms such as jaw pain, neck pain, tension headaches Sleep quality, breathing patterns, and chronic oral habits (e.g., nail biting, mouth breathing, gum chewing)
• Fascial Considerations: Educate on how restrictions in the fascial system, especially through the neck, jaw, and head can influence posture, muscular tension, and jaw mobility.

2. TMJ Anatomy & Functional Overview: Review the structure and motion of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), including:
• Key structures: Mandibular condyle, articular disc, temporal bone
• Involved musculature: Masseter, temporalis, medial/lateral pterygoids, digastric, suprahyoid group, platysma
• Movement patterns: Observe and assess opening/closing, lateral movement, and protrusion. Note quality, smoothness, and presence of deviation or asymmetry.

3. Neuromuscular Influences on TMJ Function:
• Identify muscular habits and patterns that may contribute to dysfunction:
*Low or forward tongue posture Open-mouth rest posture or lip incompetence.
*Chronic overuse of accessory muscles (e.g., SCM, mentalis, platysma)
*Muscle tension patterns originating from neck and upper thoracic structures.
*Evidence of tethered or restricted soft tissue affecting mobility (to be referred out for further evaluation if needed)
4. Range of Motion & Muscle Assessment
• Measure Functional ROM:
*Track measurements of: Mouth opening (comfortable vs. max).
*Lateral excursion (side to side)
*Jaw protrusion
•Palpation Techniques (as tolerated):
*Extraoral: Masseter, temporalis, SCM, suprahyoids.
*Intraoral (gloved and consented): Medial/lateral pterygoids, floor of mouth.
•Muscle Mapping:
Note any:
*Trigger points or tenderness
*Restrictions or hypertonicity
*Imbalance between sides

5. Review of Treatment Plan & Home Education
• Manual Therapy Objectives:
*Reduce muscular hypertonicity
*Improve fascial glide and circulation
*Restore neuromuscular coordination of jaw movements
• Therapist-Guided Home Program May Include:
*Self-massage techniques for jaw and neck.
*Postural awareness (jaw rest position, relaxed tongue position).
*Gentle breathing retraining (nasal, diaphragmatic focus).
*Movement-based cues to discourage clenching and bracing patterns.
•Collaboration & Referral Network: When appropriate, coordinate with dentists, ENTs, bodyworkers, or other professionals for integrated care (e.g., orthodontic support, airway concerns, myofunctional therapy, etc.)

• This session is also designed to help determine what further treatment may be needed and whether common trigger points are contributing to your TMJ pain.

TMJ massage focused on the muscles around the temporomandibular joint. The massage will also include work on the upper trapezius, pectoralis, neck, face, scalp and muscles located inside the mouth. Wear comfortable clothes as you will remain fully clothed during this session.

This specialized massage session is designed to prepare the body for a tongue tie release procedure. It includes a combination of full body stretching to release tension and promote alignment, targeted compression techniques to support circulation and relaxation, and gentle intraoral work to address tension in the jaw, tongue, and surrounding muscles.

Timeline for appointments:
Timeline for appointments:
• First Session:1-7 days prior to the release.
• Second Session: 1-2 weeks post release.
*Please note: If you have a healing oral wound, no intraoral massage will be performed during your session to allow proper healing and prevent irritation.
• Third Session: 3-4 weeks post release.
*If your wound has fully healed, we’ll incorporate gentle scar tissue massage into your session to support mobility and recovery.

Thai massage is a form of therapeutic touch that differs in many ways from traditional massage. It can be done on a massage table, or a Thai mat that you lie on the floor while the provider manipulates your body in certain ways to stimulate organs and improve flexibility. You will stay fully clothed during this session so be sure to wear loose fitting clothing. Thai floor walking is a wonderful way to receive deep compression work.

Thai massage takes place on a supportive mat and requires more movement than a traditional massage. Plenty of pillows and bolsters will be used during the massage to guarantee comfort. Thai massage aims to relieve joint and muscle pain through a series of assisted yoga like stretches using your entire body. You will stay fully clothed during this session so be sure to wear loose fitting clothing. Special considerations will be taken to insure the safety of both parent and baby.
