Last night I had the privilege to present to approximately 60 Dentists and Specialists from the area at the Chippewa Valley Dental Society meeting about Physical Therapy for jaw pain. I was even able to give a demonstration on dry needling of the jaw musculature. Looking forward to making a bigger impact in the Chippewa Valley for those that are struggling with jaw pain.

Are you struggling with jaw pain? It can be debilitating, making it difficult to sleep, eat the foods you desire, and simply talk and hold conversation. Did you know that Physical Therapy can help reduce your symptoms? Many people and medical providers are unaware of the benefits Physical Therapy can have on reduction of jaw symptoms. There are not many Physical Therapists that treat jaw conditions, but Ben from Patient-Centered Physical Therapy @ Phileo Health does and would love to help you out! If you would like to find out how Physical Therapy can help you, contact Ben at benreichPCPT@outlook.com, call Phileo health at 715-834-3585, or visit www.phileohealth.com.
