Craniosacral Therapy for TMJ Dysfunction
Dealing with chronic TMJ tension or jaw pain? Craniosacral therapy offers a gentle and effective way to restore balance and relieve discomfort.
We provide craniosacral therapy for TMJ dysfunction, helping clients across South Denver find lasting relief without aggressive pressure.
How Craniosacral Therapy Helps
Craniosacral therapy (CST) is a light-touch technique that works with the nervous system, fascia, and cranial bones to release tension patterns and restore subtle movement.
For TMJ issues, we focus on releasing restrictions around:
The temporal bones and mandible
The cranial base
Fascial tension in the jaw, neck, and mouth
The dural membranes around the central nervous system
Many clients with TMJ pain also have related dysfunction in the neck, head, or even pelvis—CST addresses the body as a whole to create lasting change.
Gentle Yet Powerful
CST is especially helpful for clients who are highly sensitive, have anxiety, or dislike deep pressure. Cranial sacral sessions are less about actively working the muscles, and more about gentle, sustained holds at key areas.
Clients report deep relaxation, pain relief, and even better sleep following their sessions. Not to mention an improvement in their TMJ symptoms such as pain, popping, clicking, grinding, and clenching.
But Rachel, Don’t You Offer A TMJ Massage Session?
Yes! We do have 30 and 60 minute TMJ-specific massage appointments. And they are positively wonderful for TMJ issues related to stress, local muscle tension, or recent changes like a new gum-chewing habit! But for longer term, more stubborn cases where massage alone hasn’t done the trick, CST may be the missing piece of the puzzle.
