ADVANCED BUCCAL FACIAL TECHNIQUES

Location: Calgary, Alberta

Course Date: November 7, 2026

7.75 Primary CMMOTA Continuing Education Credits

Advanced Buccal Facial Techniques

Advanced Buccal Facial Techniques is an intensive one-day, hands-on training course developed and taught by Anastasia Matveeva. Designed for experienced practitioners, the course focuses on advanced intraoral massage techniques, facial muscle release, and targeted approaches to jaw tension, TMJ-related concerns, Bruxism, and facial asymmetry.

With an emphasis on both therapeutic application and facial sculpting, students learn to work with the deeper muscles of the face and jaw, including techniques performed inside the mouth to access areas that are difficult to address through external massage alone.

The course combines focused theoretical instruction with six hours of supervised practical training, allowing students to develop their skills through extensive hands-on experience, individual correction, and personalized guidance.

Who Is This Course For?

Advanced Buccal Facial Techniques is designed for massage therapists, manual osteopathic therapists, estheticians, and other qualified professionals looking to expand their existing facial massage skills with more specialized intraoral techniques.

The course may be especially valuable for practitioners interested in:

  • Advanced facial and intraoral massage
  • Techniques for clients experiencing jaw tension and TMJ-related concerns
  • Addressing muscular tension associated with bruxism, teeth grinding, and clenching
  • Targeted release of the masseter and surrounding jaw musculature
  • Advanced facial sculpting and lifting techniques
  • Understanding and addressing facial muscle imbalances
  • Expanding therapeutic and aesthetic treatment offerings
  • Integrating specialized buccal techniques into an existing practice

Prerequisites: Previous training in standard facial massage, or lymphatic drainage, or myofascial massage is required.

This is an advanced training course intended to build upon existing hands-on knowledge rather than introduce basic facial massage fundamentals.
