Why you may need a TMJ(Jaw) Massage

/in /by

 

Since I started offering jaw massage treatments for people with jaw pain, neck pain, and headaches in St Andrews and Cupar—especially students at the University of St Andrews

I’ve received a lot of positive feedback. Many clients have noticed significant relief, with some even reducing or stopping their headache medication.

If you grind your teeth at night, clench your jaw when stressed, or hear clicking sounds when you chew, these could be signs that you need a TMJ massage.

Instead of only focusing on your neck and shoulders, a targeted jaw massage can help relieve tension and discomfort.

If you need an assessment and treatment, book your TMJ massage here.

 

Why your physio doesn’t give you a massage?

/in /by

 

‘My previous physios never gave me a massage.’
This is the most common comment I receive from my patients.

Do you know why most physios don’t provide massage? This is because a physio’s role is to empower their patients. The patient is in charge of their therapy as much as the physio is. So massage has been seen as a passive treatment with the patient just lying there doing nothing.

But my approach is different. I look at the mind, body and spirit. They are all part of our lives. Massage can build trust between therapist and patient, relaxing the mind and that can lead to a faster healing process and making it easier to receive other types of treatment.
My massage techniques are not fancy. No manipulation or weird stretching movements. But I know the root cause of your pain from the moment you walk into the clinic, or just by touch and physical assessment.

At the end of the day there is nothing wrong if I want to spoil my patient for a bit with a therapeutic massage 🙂

How I become a physio and deep tissue massage therapist in St Andrews, Fife, UK

/in /by

A very longggggg time ago I got lucky and landed a physiotherapist position in one of the best resorts in the world, Chiva-Som.

This is a pretigious health resort in Hua Hin, Thailand.

I didn’t realise that job would eventually lead me to St Andrews.

At Chiva-Som I had intensive training involving many things I didn’t learn in my university degree.

One of the things I learned at the health resort was deep tissue massage. I learned that from my manager who is an amazing physiotherapist.

She taught me to become a physiotherapist who treats patients in a holistic way.

I am still thankful to her until this day. The deep tissue massage that we all learned at Chiva-Som, is performed  unlike anywhere I have had in my entire life.

Our physio background made us stand out from the crowd.

The combination of physiotherapy education and Chiva-Som world-class training is a unique combination.

The hotel guests are from all around the world and the majority of them are VVIP level, like royal family and a big business owners.

The kind of people who you might expect to in Hello Magazine. So the massage needs to be uniques and of a very high standard.

After working there another lucky opportunity appeared, I moved to Muscat, Oman and worked as a senior physiotherapist in a very well known medical centre there.

I also met my Scottish husband in Muscat. So here I am in Scotland working as a physio and massage therapist in one of the most unique towns in Scotland, St Andrews.

If you are looking for an experience physio and massage therapist in St Andrews please come to visit me in my clinic.
