We begin the massage with the outer portion, from décolletage, neck and working ourselves up to sculpt. We come down the same way to drain. At Myüz we work with gloves with our index fingers within in the mouth to work on the top portion of the face, followed with thumbs in to work on the lower and jowls. Buccal massage works simultaneously on the inside of the face, through the oral cavity, and on the outside of the face.  This allows deeper layers of the muscle tissue and ligaments to be reached and addressed. The specific movements of this massage help to stimulate and retrain the muscles to promote more of a lifting effect on the face and improve muscle elasticity.  It helps to relax tension in both the deep and surface areas of the muscles which encourages a more natural facial posture.

Super tight muscles can inhibit healthy blood flow which can decrease the nutrients and oxygen that feed and supports the muscles.  It can also restrict the detox abilities in the tight areas which can lead to puffiness, drooping, sagging, and a dull complexion.  With many lymph nodes in the cheeks, jaw, and neck, buccal facial massage also improves lymph flow to reduce puffy eyes, dark circles, and sagging skin, while improving skin detoxification.

It is important to stay well hydrated after a treatment to help flush any toxins released during the session.  It is absolutely fine to carry on with your normal daily activities after a session, but we do recommend that you take it easy for the day.  You may experience a little fatigue after the treatment which can be normal.  In very rare cases client may experience cold like symptoms such as headache or slight body aches for a  few hours after the treatment, which can simply be a sign of your body’s natural healing and detoxification process in action as thing are getting flushed out of the system. 

Typically, a recommended series includes 6 to 8 weekly treatments, which is then followed by a maintenance treatment once a month.  Results can be seen after the first visit, but the difference is more noticeable after the third or fourth treatment as the results are cumulative.

The treatment is normally very comfortable.  However, if you have a lot of jaw tension, you may experience some discomfort during the massage. Usually it's a good, therapeutic discomfort, but we will always check to see if the pressure is okay and adjust accordingly.

Yes it does. Tension in the muscles from clenching, grinding or chewing can increase jaw pain if you suffer with TMJ issues.  A  Buccal massage is a wonderful way to relax and support healthy muscle function in the jaw area and relieve associated TMJ pain.
