Does TMJ pain get worse in February? For a lot of people in Edmonton, it does.

Cold temperatures tighten the muscles around your jaw. Add winter stress and hours hunched at a screen, and the tension has to go somewhere. For many people, it settles right into the jaw, neck, and temples.

That's where Brittany comes in.

👉 Brittany Forrest, RMT, specializes in TMJ massage, headache relief, and deep tissue work targeting the muscles most affected by that kind of tension. She works with clients whose jaw pain has been building for weeks, sometimes months, without real relief.

TMJ massage focuses on the masseter, temporalis, and surrounding structures to release compression, reduce referred pain into the head and neck, and restore normal range of motion. It's precise, targeted work.

If your jaw feels tight, your headaches are more frequent lately, or you're waking up with facial soreness, this is worth addressing.

Burnout Isn't Just Mental Your Body Shows the Signs
Burnout shows up in your body long before you admit you're struggling.

Chronic fatigue that sleep doesn't fix. Tension headaches that won't respond to medication. Neck and shoulder pain that gets worse despite rest. Lower back problems that appeared without injury. Immune system weakness making you sick constantly.

Your body is telling you what your mind tries to ignore.

➜ Burnout creates physical symptoms through sustained stress exposure.
➜ Elevated cortisol maintains chronic muscle guarding.
➜ Poor sleep prevents tissue recovery.
➜ Reduced self-care allows minor problems to become major ones.

You tell yourself rest will help. But passive rest doesn't release the physical patterns burnout creates.

Your muscles stay contracted. Your nervous system stays alert. The symptoms persist.

Massage therapy addresses burnout's physical manifestations. The treatment releases chronic muscle tension while helping your nervous system shift from constant activation to actual recovery mode.

👉 Research shows massage reduces burnout symptoms by decreasing stress hormones and improving markers of physical and psychological recovery.

Our team works with people experiencing burnout who don't realize how much their body is holding. The physical release often brings emotional release as your system finally feels safe enough to let go.

Burnout recovery requires addressing both mind and body. Massage handles what talk therapy and time off can't reach.

Cold weather changes how your body moves.
Getting out of bed takes longer. Bending down to tie your shoes requires more effort. Turning your head to check your blind spot feels restricted. Simple movements your body does automatically in summer suddenly demand conscious effort in February.

Your muscles and connective tissue respond to temperature. Cold makes everything tighter and less flexible. Blood flow decreases to preserve core warmth. Joint fluid becomes more viscous, creating stiffness that makes movement harder.

Edmonton's sustained cold from November through March means your body never fully releases that restriction. The stiffness accumulates over months.

Reduced mobility creates a problematic cycle. Movement feels harder, so you move less. Less movement means muscles stay tight. Tight muscles reduce circulation further. The stiffness gets worse.

Massage therapy addresses cold-weather mobility restrictions directly. The treatment increases tissue temperature and blood flow while releasing chronic muscle contraction that cold maintains.

Research shows massage significantly improves range of motion and reduces stiffness in cold weather conditions.

👉 Studies found massage increased joint flexibility and tissue elasticity while improving circulation to restricted areas.

Better mobility means daily activities stop feeling like work. Getting dressed, driving, working at your desk all become easier when your body moves the way it should.

Pain Creates Stress. Stress Creates Pain. Break the Cycle.
Your body and mind feed each other in ways you don't always notice.

Physical pain elevates your stress response.

Chronic shoulder tension keeps your nervous system alert. Lower back pain disrupts your sleep, which increases irritability. Headaches make every task harder, which creates more anxiety about getting things done.

Then stress makes the pain worse. Elevated cortisol maintains muscle guarding. Shallow breathing from anxiety reduces oxygen to tight muscles. Racing thoughts prevent the rest your body needs to heal.

The cycle reinforces itself until you can't tell which came first.

Winter intensifies both sides. Edmonton's darkness affects mood regulation. Cold weather creates constant muscle contraction. Reduced activity allows tension to build without release.
Breaking the cycle requires interrupting it physically.

Research shows massage therapy reduces both pain intensity and stress markers simultaneously, creating a reset point your body can't achieve alone.

👉 Studies found massage decreased pain levels while lowering cortisol by 31% and increasing serotonin by 28%, addressing both physical and psychological components of the cycle.

🟢 Our therapists work with people trapped in this pattern.

The treatment releases physical tension while giving your nervous system evidence that it's safe to relax. One interrupts the other. Pain decreases, stress follows. Stress decreases, pain releases.

You spend your days caring for others. Patients, students, children, aging parents, clients who need you.

Your body absorbs the physical and emotional weight of everyone else's needs.

You lift, bend, stand for hours, sit in uncomfortable positions, carry stress that isn't yours.

The tension lives in your shoulders. The exhaustion settles in your lower back.

The mental load creates jaw clenching and headaches you ignore because someone else needs you more.

Caregivers develop predictable pain patterns.

Nurses get chronic neck and shoulder tension from patient transfers. Teachers get lower back pain from standing and bending. Parents get full-body exhaustion from constant physical demands.

Your body doesn't have unlimited capacity. The strain accumulates until it forces you to stop.

Research shows massage therapy significantly reduces caregiver stress and physical pain while improving sleep quality and emotional resilience.

👉 Studies found massage decreased anxiety and depression in caregivers while reducing the physical symptoms of chronic stress.

Both Brittany and Cara work with people in caring professions. The treatment addresses the specific pain patterns your work creates while giving your nervous system permission to rest.
You can't pour from an empty cup. Your body needs the same attention you give everyone else.

Sports injuries create frustration. You push through training. You feel a pull or strain. Now you're sidelined watching others do what you want to be doing.
Does massage therapy speed recovery from sports injuries and prevent reinjury?

Yes.

Rest alone doesn't fix the problem. Your body needs active recovery to heal properly.

Injured tissue forms scar tissue during healing. Without intervention, that scar tissue stays rigid and weak. The area becomes a reinjury risk because it never regains normal function.
Massage therapy addresses the healing process actively.

Research shows massage reduces inflammation, improves tissue flexibility, and speeds recovery time for sports injuries.

👉 Studies found massage therapy decreased muscle soreness and improved recovery markers after intense exercise, helping athletes return to training faster.

Our therapists work with athletes and active people recovering from injury. The approach breaks down dysfunctional scar tissue while restoring normal movement patterns.

Your extended health benefits reset January 1. This is the time to address that injury properly instead of hoping rest will fix it.
