Intra-oral TMJ Massage
(Temporomandibular Joint)

Picture
Picture
Temporomandibular joint disorders, more commonly known as TMJ, are usually the result of inflamed and painful chewing muscles around your jaw. For some, it's a once-in-a-while issue that can come from too much chewing, like indulging in a piece of gum all afternoon. For others, however, TMJ disorder can be a chronic issue that results in constant pain and discomfort.
​
The cause for this chronic condition is relatively subjective, but may be linked to stress fractures, an imperfect bite, tooth grinding, whiplashes/trauma to the head or neck, or tooth clenching related to stress. Luckily, a TMJ massage can act as an effective, non-medicinal way to deal with TMJ pain. 
TMJ Intra-oral massage is a modality I specialize in. Intra-oral just means, I massage the muscles on the INSIDE of your mouth while wearing gloves. The benefits of massage therapy when focused around the muscles of mastication (chewing muscles), is a very effective way to decrease symptoms of pain in the jaw, joint clicking and increase range of motion and circulation to the muscle tissue. In addition, I massage all of the surrounding areas that effect the TMJ such as: neck, face, head, chest and back. I use active isolated stretching to maximize the results. Typically, a treatment can involve in inside and outside of the mouth, neck, face, and upper back. To accomplish ideal results, I recommend at least a one hour session.
 

Therapeutic Massage Therapy

What is a Therapeutic Massage?
Therapeutic massage is a mixture of techniques such as:
  • Deep Tissue
  • Active Isolated Stretching
  • Myofascial Release
  • Cupping Therapy
The focus of therapeutic massage is to dramatically alter the muscle tissue, reduce pain, increase circulation, increase range of motion, plus much more.
​
Deep Tissue 
Deep tissue massage is a massage technique that’s mainly used to treat musculoskeletal issues, such as strains and sports injuries. It involves applying sustained pressure using slow, deep strokes to target the inner layers of your muscles and connective tissues. This helps to break up scar tissue that forms following an injury and reduce tension in muscle and tissue. It may also promote faster healing by increasing blood flow and reducing inflammation.
Deep tissue massage offers both physical and psychological benefits. Unlike other massage techniques that focus on relaxation, deep tissue massage helps to treat muscle pain and improve stiffness. But it can still help to you unwind mentally, too.
​
The AIS Technique
Performing an Active Isolated Stretch of no longer than two seconds allows the target muscles to optimally lengthen without triggering the protective stretch reflex and subsequent reciprocal antagonistic muscle contraction as the isolated muscle achieves a state of relaxation. These stretches provide maximum benefit and can be accomplished without opposing tension or resulting trauma.

Myofascial Release
Achieve Optimal Flexibility

Aaron Mattes' myofascial release technique, which also incorporates Active Isolated Stretching, uses active movement and reciprocal inhibition to achieve optimal flexibility. Using a 2.0 second stretch has proven to be the key in avoiding reflexive contraction of the antagonistic muscle. Without activating muscle group contraction, restoration of full range of motion and flexibility can be successfully achieved.
 

Healing Hot Stones
Melt away the tension!

Picture
A hot stone massage is used to help you relax and ease tense muscles and damaged soft tissues throughout your body. A Heated stone massage can have powerful healing effects. 
​
During a hot stone massage, smooth, flat, heated stones are placed on specific parts of your body. The stones have a high iron ore content and posses geomagnetic remanence (residual magnetism), this combination will amplify the potency of any body therapy by radiating consistent gentle heat. 

I hold heated stones as an extension of my hand, while massaging your body, using deep tissue like massage techniques such as:
  • long strokes
  • circular movements
  • vibration
  • Myofascial release
  • kneading 

Some of the many beneficial effects include:
  • Increased Circulation
  • Stimulating the Lymphatic System
  • Relaxing and Softening Injured & Overused Muscles
  • Releasing Endorphins
  • Reducing Spasms and Cramping

Joy does amazing work. She is very sensitive to the needs of her client and focuses on their reaction as she is working so she does not apply too much pressure, but gives enough pressure to stimulate the muscle tissues to beneficial effect. Joy is very professional, but makes the client feel at ease and very comfortable. During the massage she checks to make sure the client is having a good experience. Overall I would say that Joy Morgan gives the best massage I have ever experienced and I would high recommend her to anyone who is in need of an experienced, professional and highly skilled therapist.
