Jaw tension, headaches, facial tightness - many people experience these symptoms daily without realizing there’s a highly effective, natural solution available. Becky Reed of R&R NWA Massage is helping clients find relief through a specialized technique known as TMJ/Buccal Massage, a treatment designed to target the deeper muscles of the face and jaw.

TMJ/Buccal Massage is a specialized, hands-on therapy that focuses on the muscles inside the mouth and along the jawline. Using gloved hands, Becky works both externally and intra-orally to gently release tension in muscles that are often difficult to reach with traditional massage techniques.

This therapy is especially effective for those dealing with TMJ dysfunction, jaw pain, clicking or locking, teeth grinding, and chronic headaches. By targeting key muscles like the masseter and pterygoids, Becky is able to reduce tightness, improve mobility, and help restore balance to the jaw.

Unlike traditional massage, which focuses on surface-level muscles, buccal massage allows access to deeper layers where tension is often stored. This is particularly important for individuals who carry stress in their face or experience clenching and grinding.

Clients often notice an increase in jaw range of motion, a decrease in pain and headaches, and improved overall comfort. Because the treatment also stimulates circulation and lymphatic drainage, many experience added benefits such as reduced puffiness and a more refreshed, lifted appearance.

For those new to TMJ/Buccal Massage, it’s helpful to know that the treatment can feel different from a traditional massage. Some areas may feel tender at first as tight muscles are released, but the results are often immediate and noticeable.

Becky takes a personalized approach with each client, adjusting pressure and technique based on individual comfort and needs. She also provides guidance on simple self-care techniques that can help maintain results between sessions.

This treatment is ideal for individuals experiencing:

• Jaw pain, tension, or TMJ dysfunction
 • Frequent headaches or migraines
 • Teeth grinding or clenching
 • Facial tightness or stress held in the jaw
 • Loss of definition or tension in the lower face

For best results, Becky often recommends a series of sessions to fully address chronic tension, followed by regular maintenance to keep the muscles relaxed and functioning properly.

Becky believes that massage is not just a luxury, but an important part of preventive care. TMJ/Buccal Massage offers a natural, non-invasive way to relieve pain, improve mobility, and support overall well-being, without relying on medication or temporary fixes.

Her goal is to create a space where clients can not only find relief, but truly relax and feel cared for throughout the process.

"I highly recommend Becky for massages. After an injury years ago to my jaw, I developed TMJ. She offers a TMJ massage treatment that really helped. The next day I didn’t wake up hurting after all the pressure being released after the treatment… It really helped, didn’t hurt, and I even fell asleep on accident." – Colt Storm
