Finally Release the Jaw Tension Your
Dentist Couldn’t Fix
Clenching. Clicking. Headaches that start behind your teeth and spread across your skull. If your jaw has been controlling your life, it’s time to take it back. Specialist intra-oral and clinical massage with Tessa, trained in both the FaceUp Method and Jing TMJ.
You’ve Probably Tried Everything
When Your Jaw Won’t Stop Holding
On
Maybe it started with a bit of clicking. Then the headaches crept in. You bought a mouthguard. You went to the dentist. You stretched. You googled. Nothing helped long-term or at all. The problem with jaw tension is that most people treat it like it’s just a jaw problem. It’s not.
The muscles in your jaw connect to your neck, your shoulders, your posture, and even how you breathe. That’s why stretching alone rarely fixes it, and why your dentist’s night guard helps manage it but never resolves it. What most people don’t know is that there are muscles inside your mouth that hold enormous amounts of tension. You can’t reach them on your own. And most massage therapists aren’t trained to work there. Tessa is. And that’s what makes this treatment different.
Specialist Training. Specialist Results.
Not Just a Jaw Massage — Two Expert Methods
Combined
Tessa holds dual specialist certification: the FaceUp Method and Jing TMJ, one of the most respected advanced clinical massage training providers in the UK. She combines both within every TMJ treatment.
The Jing TMJ training gives Tessa a deep clinical understanding of temporomandibular dysfunction: the anatomy, assessment, trigger points, and advanced softtissue techniques that address the root drivers of jaw pain. The FaceUp Method adds intra-oral (buccal) massage, fascial release, lymphatic drainage, and nervous system regulation into the mix. Most massage therapists work on the outside of your jaw. Tessa works both sides. Wearing surgical gloves, she releases the deep muscles inside your mouth that clench, grip, and guard. These are the muscles that drive TMJ symptoms, and they respond remarkably well to skilled, targeted treatment.
Key Benefites
• Releases deep jaw tension from the inside, like an intraoral massage, reaching the pterygoid and masseter muscles that external massage simply cannot access.
• Treats the whole chain, not just the jaw. Your jaw tension doesn’t exist in isolation. Tessa works through the neck, shoulders, and facial fascia to address the full picture.
• A Calms the nervous system. Jaw clenching is often a stress response. This treatment helps your body stop bracing, so the tension doesn’t keep returning.
• Improves facial circulation and lymphatic flow. Many clients notice reduced puffiness, softened facial tension, and a visible glow alongside the pain relief.
Your First Session
What Happens When You Walk In
Step 1: Assessment
Tessa starts by understanding your symptoms, your history, and what’s causing your jaw tension: stress, posture, dental work, or something else entirely.
Step 3: Facial & Jaw Work
Combining Jing TMJ techniques with the FaceUp Method, Tessa works the jaw, temples, and facial muscles externally and intra-orally, releasing the deep tension that drives your symptoms.
Step 2: Neck & Shoulders
Treatment begins with the muscles that contribute to jaw tension: the neck, upper shoulders, and suboccipitals. This prepares your body to let go.
Step 4: Aftercare & Plan
You leave with self-care exercises, self-massage techniques, and a clear plan. For persistent jaw tension, we recommend a structured treatment plan to make lasting progress.
