Jessica Hume’s journey into facial and intraoral massage began long before she became an RMT. After a car accident at 19 left her with persistent jaw pain and migraines, she searched for solutions and found lasting relief through hands-on TMJ work. This experience sparked a deep curiosity about the intersection of touch, structure, and function.

Before stepping into clinical practice, Jessica spent years refining her hands-on approach in the spa industry, including time at Shangri-La Hotel Chi, The Spa, where she trained in facial massage, lymphatic techniques, and high-end skincare. Working at the intersection of science and intuitive touch, she developed a deep appreciation for how facial work can do more than sculpt, it can restore balance, encourage circulation, and relieve deep-seated tension.

Jessica believes facial massage is both an art and a science, a way to reconnect with the body through slow, intentional work that brings lasting change.
