Ask Austin Is there a good massage parlor within the city that strictly focuses on face/jaw massage?
Most mainstream places focus on sport massages, deep tissue or just general work up, but many of them don’t really work your face. Like if you go for a deep tissue and ask for some face work, they will give you some treatment but it’s usually at the end after they work your upper back, spine and shoulders. Don’t get me wrong, it helps, but then the clock is up.
I literally want someone to put my face, and lower jaw through a wringer because i have TMJ and also bruxism (teeth grinding).
I just need a quick 30 minutes of someone with strong thumbs to fix my jaw tension, my temples, forehead and scalp.
As an alternative does anyone know where i can buy tools to massage it myself if there are no parlors? I usually use my thumbs, but im obviously not trained
