Craniofacial Release

Craniofacial Release massage

Craniofacial release is a type of manual therapy that aims to alleviate pain and tension in the craniofacial region, including the head, neck, and jaw. This therapy can offer benefits for those who suffer from conditions such as chronic headaches, TMJ disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

​

One of the primary benefits of craniofacial release is its ability to alleviate chronic headaches and migraines. This is achieved by releasing tension in the muscles and fascia of the head, neck, and jaw, which often contribute to headaches. Craniofacial release can also help to improve the range of motion in the jaw, which can be beneficial for those with TMJ disorder.

​

Another benefit of craniofacial release is its ability to reduce symptoms of PTSD. This is thought to be due to the therapy's ability to release tension in the craniofacial region, having a calming effect on the nervous system and reducing symptoms such as anxiety and depression while improving sleep.

​

Craniofacial release is also beneficial for those who suffer from chronic sinusitis. This is an inflammatory condition of the sinuses, which can cause facial pain, headaches, and congestion. Many patients report feeling a release of tension in the muscles and fascia of the face, which can improve drainage of the sinuses and reduce symptoms.

​

Craniofacial release is a highly effective therapy that can offer a number of benefits for those who suffer from conditions such as chronic headaches, TMJ disorder, PTSD, chronic sinusitis, and facial asymmetry. If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, it may be beneficial to consider craniofacial release as a potential treatment option.
