Episode 20
Tuesday, 18 November, 2025
Send us a textIn this uplifting episode, I’m joined by the brilliant Carla Bickerstaffe, a dedicated Sports Massage Therapist whose path to treating jaw pain began with the athletes she supported and deepened through her completion of the Level 1 TMJ Massage Therapies® Online CPD Course.Carla, based in the Midlands and part of the Invictus Games medical team, opens up about the unique challenges of working with elite athletes and the surprising ways jaw tension can impact performance and recovery. We talk about how often jaw pain goes unspoken in clinical settings and why it is so important to bring awareness and skill to this part of the body.Carla shares powerful case stories from her practice and how she began noticing patterns linking jaw tension with systemic issues like posture, breathing, and even pelvic alignment. Her insights reflect a deep commitment to whole person care where no symptom is treated in isolation.This episode is a reminder of how far reaching jaw pain can be and how specialised training and a compassionate approach can make a lasting difference.For more information about TMJ Massage Therapies®️ Training head over to www.tmjmassagetherapies.com/training or email training@tmjmassagetherapies.com
