⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

It always means a lot to know how much these treatments help those suffering with TMJ dysfunction.

Tension is often felt throughout the body, not just the jaw. I take a whole body approach and work intuitively, tailoring each session to suit individual needs.

Get in touch if you are looking for natural support in managing your TMJ symptoms.

I am looking forward to taking some time to properly unplug and recharge my energy for the year ahead. I am really excited to come back fresher and clearer with direction as I grow my psychotherapy practice, writing workshops, and continue to support TMJ clients.

Start 2026 with some creative flow! ✍️

Our January workshop will be the perfect time to visualise your year ahead.

I will be leading writing activities designed for you to relax and let your imagination come alive on the paper.

Creative writing can also be a great tool for reflection and processing thoughts or experiences that you do not wish to carry forward.

All writing levels are welcome, and there is no requirement to share what you have written.

It's a really peaceful way to spend a winter evening ☕️

Booking info in bio or on the Healing Space website under workshops.

Get in touch with any questions.

Claire.

This study by Sulowska-Daszyk et al. (2024) found that a single session of TMJ soft tissue therapy had a beneficial impact on jaw mobility and cervical spine mobility in women diagnosed with myofascial pain surrounding the TMJ.

Massage, trigger point, and myofascial techniques, including intra-oral, were used to relax the masticatory (chewing) muscles and release fascial restrictions.

Positive findings for the benefits of TMJ soft tissue therapy, although it would be interesting to know how long the results from one treatment lasted for the participants.

Treating the TMJ is not an overnight fix. It is a complex area, and how many treatments are needed depend on various factors surrounding the individual, such as the root cause, severity of their symptoms, and what forms of self-care they are practising.

Another interesting observation in this study was the benefits TMJ therapy may have on the feet. Again, longer research would benefit findings, but such studies help deepen our understanding of how different bodily systems and parts all impact each other.

TMJ disorders are never unique to one cause and historically lack research. As a holistic practitioner, I am always expanding my knowledge so that I can assist my clients in their journeys towards better overall health and wellbeing.

Writing has wonderful benefits for the mind. It helps to release stress and can be a great outlet for our thoughts and feelings. An increase in creativity can help to spark new ideas, and regular practice can enhance focus.

Join us for a relaxing evening online where you will be guided through light-hearted writing activities where the only rule is to write. No experience is needed, and there is no requirement to share your writing unless you wish to.

Date: 25th November
Time: 7.30pm - 9pm

The body's ability to heal is a process which requires time. Although one TMJ treatment can provide immediate relief from pain and stiffness, multiple treatments are usually recommended to create long-lasting changes.

When I am working on your neck, jaw and facial muscles, I am addressing the restrictions and adhesions within the structure of your muscles and fascia. These have often built up over time, leading to chronic tension.

Consistent and repetitive treatments are best for addressing your TMJ symptoms and cause. They have a cumulative effect, so each treatment builds on the last, accessing deeper restrictions and reducing metabolic waste and inflammation.

Starting the week with a new logo and website!

My business is evolving, and I feel so passionate about it. I have been supporting people with physical tension for over ten years and am now qualified to work alongside others exploring their emotional tension, too.

My focus is now on building my counselling practice and continuing my work treating TMJ patients.

Although there are many factors that lead to TMJ Dyfunction, for me, the majority of people I see are holding on to emotional tension, and at times, the treatments encourage a beautiful release. I will continue with treating jaws because, frankly, I love it and feel it is important in reducing pain and physical realignment. Seeing the results is incredibly rewarding.

Now that I have qualified as a relational psychotherapist, I can also work with people in a different way. I am integrative, and my aim is to support my clients on whatever journey they are on, drawing on different approaches to assist individuals in meeting their needs. Having a confidential space to talk and be heard offers opportunities for growth, change, and healing. I can help you develop the resources to live more authentically, with greater understanding and self-awareness.

My counselling services are currently online only while I establish an in-person setting. Updates to follow!
