1 day course on Temporo-Mandibular Disorders - Ontario Physiotherapy Association

This 1-day course will enable you to gain a practical knowledge of the possible anatomical factors leading to TMJ pain & dysfunctions.

The course will review basic TMJ evaluation and effective muscular retraining exercises & manual therapy.

An important note regarding the TMJ all Physical Therapists need to be aware of:

Many dentists & physicians are in need of referring their patients with persistent headaches, earaches, and facial pains related to the TMJ to other health care professionals; however they are unaware that some PTs can effectively evaluate and treat the TMJ.

There are great opportunities for PTs to assist their local dentists and help many individuals who suffer from persistent and disabling TMJ conditions. Management includes education on condition, highly effective home exercise programs and gentle mobilizations.
