Massage for pain
Do you know a local masseuse or massuer, student or professional (or both, or neither)? In particular one who knows how to deal with pretty severe jaw and neck pain, TMJ-related specifically? I can drive within 45 minutes or so.

I have an appointment with a person who specializes in this for Monday, but I don't think I can wait that long with this pain. Anyone who can help me out with a little relief in the meantime would be much appreciated. Even if it's just back and shoulder massage, I think it would really help. I will of course pay. No, I don't want your heavy-duty painkillers, I have too much work to do this weekend. Thanks, though.

There's a massage therapist named Scott Medwid who works out of the Oberlin Inn. I don't know how he is about jaw pain, but he's definitely good with neck pain. I saw him my senior year for really painful shoulder spasms, and he helped me out a LOT. I've had a fair number of professional massages, but the ones with him were the best, hands down (no pun intended!). I hope you feel better!

I was also going to say call Scott. I am sure he's in the phonebook. If he can't help he will know who can.

Liz Johnson is a certified masseuse. I don't know if she knows anything about TMJ, but I hear she gives killer massages and probably doesn't charge as much as some others.
