yes go for it--go not just for facial--go
for whole body massage. you should ask
your doctor for a referral to a massage
therapist.

I went to chiropractor, wt ho manipulated
and messaged some of the muslces. but the
relief was short lasted and I do not think
of me coming back to his officec. I do
want to find a good message therapist just
for my back and neck, it definetely helps
reduce the tension. Even for that short
period of time feeling better is amazing.

they can do it but it isnt their
specialty. My chiro does some deep muscle
work on me too. It really does help. I was
in massage therapy for quite a while. for
me it only lasted about a day but that was
because of the severity of the condition.
its definatly worth it. find a good one
and tell her about the tmd.

I used a mouth guard for about 2 years and
bit holes in it. It did not work at all
for me. But everyone is different and I
also had extremely stressful situations as
a child.
I recently went to a chiropracter that
believes in homeopathic remedies such as
yoga and he was very gentle. My jaw felt
better in 2 days but in 3 weeks i found
myself wanting to go back to ease the pain
again. Everything is connected so I found
my lower back was stressed alot too.
Afterwards I felt better.
