Face massage for jaw tension Burnaby

Tension released.
Skin & hair transformed.

The face holds more tension than most people realize — in the jaw, temples, forehead, and scalp — and this chronic tension has direct consequences for skin health, circulation, and even hair growth. Therapeutic face and scalp massage addresses this tension systemically, with benefits that extend far beyond relaxation.

Facial massage improves microcirculation — delivering oxygen and nutrients to skin cells and supporting the removal of metabolic waste. Scalp massage has been clinically shown to increase scalp blood flow, stimulate hair follicles, and improve hair thickness — making it a valuable complement to PRP and microneedling for hair loss.

At Oak Skin in Burnaby, our face and scalp massage sessions are performed with professional technique and can be combined with our other treatments for enhanced results.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Face & scalp massage FAQ

Can face massage help with jaw clenching and TMJ?

Yes — therapeutic facial massage targeting the masseter and surrounding muscles provides significant relief from jaw tension, TMJ symptoms, and associated headaches. We often combine this with facial acupuncture for enhanced results.

How often should I get a face and scalp massage?

For stress relief and skin maintenance, monthly sessions are ideal. For jaw tension, TMJ, or hair loss support, we may recommend weekly sessions during an initial intensive phase.

Does scalp massage really help hair growth?

Clinical research has shown that regular scalp massage increases scalp blood flow and hair thickness. While not a standalone treatment for significant hair loss, it is a valuable complement to PRP and microneedling for hair restoration.

Is face and scalp massage covered by extended health benefits?

Face and scalp massage at Oak Skin is performed by our Registered Massage Therapists (RMT) and is eligible for coverage under most extended health benefit plans in BC that include massage therapy.
