Description

This is an online course that focuses on the etiology of craniofacial pain and pathology affecting the TMJ and related structures. Because this is the first of three advanced courses on craniofacial pain, we will review and expand on the anatomy of the craniomandibular system, as well as exploring conventional radiography and advanced imaging for this area. The emphasis of the course is on understanding the etiological complexities of craniofacial pain and the place of the physical therapist in treating this patient population. Prerequisites are PHT 6331, Evaluation and Treatment of the Craniomandibular System and attendance to the continuing education seminar "Intermediate Cranio-Facial" conducted by the University of St. Augustine.
