Most people find me when their jaw has become the last straw.
You might have seen dentists, tried splints, done the stretches, downloaded the relaxation apps and still wake with a tight jaw and heavy head.
This page is for people who want focused TMJ and upper body work with someone who lives with the same issues. I have TMJ dysfunction, migraine, tinnitus and long standing neck and shoulder tension myself. I know what it feels like when your upper body never quite switches off.
My work is practical, detailed and straightforward. Hands on from the start. No clipboards in the room. No long forms eating into your booked time.
If you are looking for TMJ treatment in London and want real upper body work, this is where we start.
TMJ & UPPER
BODY
Jaw, head, neck and shoulder treatment for people who have tried everything else
WHO IS THIS TREATMENT
FOR
You do not have to know the exact diagnosis to be in the right place. Most of my TMJ and upper body clients recognise themselves in at least a few of these.
• Jaw pain that comes and goes or never fully settles
• Clenching or grinding in the day or at night
• Clicking, popping or feeling of catching in the jaw
• Pain around the temples, behind the eyes or across the forehead
• Ear pressure, blocked ear feeling or regular ringing
• Neck that feels stiff, heavy or restricted when you turn
• Shoulders that creep upwards when you are stressed or focused
• Face that feels tight around the cheeks and brow
• Head, neck and jaw symptoms that flare around hormones or sleep disruption
• A general sense that your whole upper body is holding more than it should
If several of these feel familiar, TMJ focused massage and upper body work are likely to be relevant for you.
WHAT DOES THIS TREATMENT LOOK LIKE
A first session with me is simple and direct.
• Short conversation when you arrive
• Clear questions about your current symptoms and what you have already tried
• You show me where you feel the main tension
• We agree the focus for that day
• I start treatment straight away and you receive your full booked time as hands on work
I check in with you during the session so we can keep pressure at a level that feels effective but safe. You can talk, stay quiet or switch between both.
There is no pressure either way.
Most people leave feeling lighter through the jaw and neck and more aware of how much they had been holding.
SIGNATURE HEAD NECK &
SHOULDER
This is the treatment everything else sits on.
I designed it because I could never find a massage that spent long enough on the areas that actually hurt. The focus is slow, precise work across the scalp, neck, shoulders and upper back, with attention to the muscles that pull on the jaw.
It is suitable if
• Your main issue is heavy head, neck pain or tight shoulders
• You are not ready for intra oral work yet
• You want regular upper body care between TMJ sessions
• You spend long hours at a desk or screen
Many people use this as maintenance once the more intense TMJ phase has settled.
NATURAL
FACELIFT
This treatment focuses on the muscles of the face, jaw, scalp and neck rather than the skin alone, working with tension patterns that affect expression, symmetry and comfort.
I use slow, targeted techniques around the jaw, cheeks, eyes and forehead, alongside the neck and upper chest, to reduce the holding that pulls the face down rather than forcing lift.
It is suitable if
• Your face feels tight, tired or heavy
• You clench, grind or hold tension in your jaw
• You want visible softening without invasive treatments
• You hold stress in your face without realising it
Many people notice their face feels lighter, their jaw moves more freely, and their features look more rested rather than altered.
