What can physiotherapy do about your jaw pain

While this is an important step to make sure that the pain is not originating from a hidden dental issue, most patients find that there is no relief from pain. This little article explains the role of physiotherapy in treatment of temporomandibular joint dysfunctions (jaw pain) and how your physiotherapist can actually collaborate with dentists and other health practitioners to ensure you get the care you need.
