Hands-on help for jaw tension and headaches
A jaw that clicks, clenching you only notice when it aches, or headaches around your temples. I treat the muscles that are working too hard.
Sound familiar?
It's usually more than the sore spot
What these tend to share is muscles around the jaw and neck working far harder than they should. Stress, sleep, posture and clenching all feed it.
Soft tissue therapy can't change the joint itself, but easing the overworked muscles around it is often where people feel the difference.
The Foundation Session: two hours, £99
Everyone starts here. It's long enough to work out why, and to start putting it right.
I ask, then I assess
Your history, sleep and stress, and anything your dentist or GP has flagged. Then I assess how your jaw moves and where it holds.
I treat gently and precisely
Mostly around the temples, cheeks, jaw, neck and shoulders. Inside the mouth only with your explicit consent, and you can stop at any point.
You leave with a plan
Often a simple way to release your jaw yourself, and a clear idea of what to try between sessions.
At your home or at Wokingham Therapy Clinic. No obligation to book anything after it.
What clients say
I went with myofascial pain I'd had for a long time. After the first session it improved considerably, and a month later it has largely gone. Rebecca is the consummate professional, with incredible knowledge and skills.
I'd tried botox, splints, physio, even soft-food diets. Rebecca's treatments have made the biggest difference, and learning how to release my jaw at home has been a game changer. Bring on the stonebaked ciabatta.
My son was struggling with headaches and neck pain from hours of gaming and studying. After one session with Rebecca he slept 11 hours straight, and her ongoing support made such a positive difference through his A-levels.
Before you book
Do you work inside the mouth?
Only with your explicit consent, and only where it helps. I explain everything first, it stays gentle, and you can stop whenever you like.
How many sessions will I need?
I can't promise a number, because it depends on you and how your body responds. After your first session we'll have a much better idea, and there's no obligation to book more.
Will it hurt?
Some techniques can feel intense on tight areas, but pain is never the goal. I check in as we go, and you're always in control of the pressure.
Do you come to me?
Yes, or you can choose Wokingham Therapy Clinic when you book. I cover Bracknell, Wokingham, Crowthorne, Sandhurst, Binfield, Warfield and Ascot.
