The protocol

A typical series is six to eight weekly sessions, then monthly to hold it.

Most people feel a change after the first visit and see one by the third. You will get the series written down before you leave, with the dates that work backward from it.

The studio

One room, one pair of hands, by appointment

I work on jaws. Most of my clients arrive holding their temples, or having been told by a dentist that they grind. I trained in manual lymphatic drainage and intraoral technique, and I keep the studio to one person so the hour is yours — no rooms turning over, no upsell at the end.

You will know what I am doing while I do it. If something is not right for you — recent dental work, an injectable that needs to settle — I will say so and move the appointment.

Common questions

All questions

Does buccal massage hurt?

It is firm and it is unfamiliar. Most people describe pressure rather than pain, and you set the ceiling — I check in through the whole intraoral portion. Gloves are new for every appointment and shown to you before I begin.

I have Botox or filler. Can I still book?

Yes, with timing. Two weeks after neurotoxin and four weeks after filler for intraoral or drainage work. Tell me what you had and when at booking and I will place the appointment correctly.

How often should I come?

Six to eight weekly sessions to change something, then monthly to hold it. You will get the schedule written down at the first visit.
