Improve Skin Tone
Enhanced blood circulation from targeted TMJ massage relieves deep muscle tension while restoring a healthy, vibrant glow to your complexion.
Reduce Fine Lines
Relaxing chronically clenched facial and jaw muscles helps smooth out the stress-induced expression lines commonly associated with TMJ disorders.
Support Collagen Growth
Therapeutic stimulation of your facial tissues encourages natural healing, tissue repair, and collagen production alongside your jaw pain relief.
Ease Jaw Tightness
Specialized release techniques directly target your masseter and surrounding muscles to alleviate painful clenching and restore comfortable, fluid jaw movement.
Reduce Facial Puffiness
Gentle lymphatic drainage integrated into your TMJ treatment helps clear inflammatory fluid buildup, leaving your face feeling remarkably light and refreshed.
Our Approach to TMJ Treatment
Our Registered Acupuncturists use fine needles placed at specific facial and body points to stimulate circulation and encourage your body's natural repair processes. Sessions often incorporate points on the neck, shoulders, and hands as well, since tension in these areas frequently shows up in the face.
Each treatment plan is customized, and many patients incorporate facial acupuncture as an ongoing part of their wellness routine rather than a one-time treatment.
