Medical Massage Therapy for TMJ Disorder

Did you know the right kind of expertly trained and focused medical massage therapy can help with TMJ disorder and jaw pain? Temperomandibular joint disorder, or dysfunction, can be identified by pain and stiffness in the jaw, face and neck. TMJ disorder affects the temporomandibular joint, which connects your jaw bone to the side of your skull.  People may also experience pain and discomfort more when chewing or swallowing.

 

Studies have shown that focused clinical massage therapy can help reduce, and in many cases, eliminate the effects of TMJ disorder with regular sessions. These sessions can also help reduce or eliminate lock jaw. Reduction in pain and stiffness, ability to chew easier are all common improvements reported with targeted massage therapy for TMJ dysfunction. One of the best benefits of medical massage and manual therapy for TMJ disorder is that often patients avoid any surgeries.

 

Have you tried multiple therapies like physical therapy, chiropractic and consulting your dentist or doctor but have found no relief? Vitality Massage in Rochester, NY is your solution.

Medical Massage Therapy for Headaches & Migraines

Do you suffer from chronic headaches or migraines? Whether daily, weekly or monthly, headaches and migraines on a frequent basis can be absolutely debilitating and life-altering. If you have tried other massage therapy, chiropractic, acupuncture, different medicines or Botox injections and are still searching for relief, look no further. We offer medical massage therapy that is specifically tailored for each person and this condition. We have a 100% SUCCESS rate in helping individuals reduce their frequency of how often they are affected, reduce the severity of how bad it is when they are affected, or reduce both frequency and severity. In many cases we have eliminated a patient’s problem. In other cases we have helped people take themselves off their pharmaceuticals, medicines which often carry a wide variety of negative side effects.

In our experience, no matter the frequency or severity, every single person we have ever worked with who suffers from this problem has EXCESSIVE head, neck and upper back tension. Reducing this tension to a great degree is the success to solving these problems. We have specific training for medical style massage that you will not find anywhere else in the Rochester area. We use a blend of deep tissue massage, myofascial release, dermal traction and targeted manual therapy to achieve these goals from a medical massage perspective. These techniques can be adjusted for those with high sensitivities and are in need of a lighter touch. Learn more about our techniques and training by visiting our website.

In most cases, especially the severe ones, we start out with weekly sessions. As we break things down, we then start to reduce to twice a month sessions, or monthly sessions. In most cases, patients return for a monthly session long term. Not only does this allow them to maintain the gains they receive from our treatments, but their headache migraine issues never return.

We accept Flexible Spending and Health Savings Account payments for insurance purposes. We also offer multiple session packages up to 20% off to make our sessions more affordable. Send us an email if you have questions about your specific case. Book online now. We look forward to improving your quality of life long term.
