Clinical intraoral massage for TMJ at Relief Massage Method in Kansas City, MO.

About

Living with TMD changed my life, and so did learning clinical intraoral massage. That experience inspired me to dedicate my career to supporting others through thoughtful, personalized care and trusted referrals when appropriate.

New here?

Sometimes jaw discomfort is about more than just the jaw. Using a whole-body approach, I help address muscular tension that may contribute to jaw discomfort, facial pain, headaches, and teeth clenching through specialized massage techniques, including clinical intraoral massage and myofascial release.
