Facial Pain Physiotherapy

Our physiotherapist Ann is experienced in performing a full examination and treatment plan for individual’s experiencing facial pain conditions. The most commonly seen conditions include Bell’s Palsy and Trigeminal Neuralgia and the most current research demonstrates that physiotherapy can have significant benefits in improving muscle function and reducing pain.

The assessment includes:

  • thorough history of your symptoms

  • nerve testing of the muscles around your face and neck

  • movement testing of your jaw and neck

  • manual assessment of your facial, jaw and neck muscles

Based on the findings, you will be recommending a treatment plan which may including liaising with your GP regarding prescription of specific medications.
