Vivki,

I did the physical therapist, had no speech problems to remedy. Just the trismus. But please make sure you get someone who knows what they are doing. It isn't like recovery from a car wreck or stroke. They literrally have to put their hands in your mouth. Exercises at home may include the popsicle sticks. I know some people still use them to stay limber. I was told they should not use heat packs on your jaw for this like they would a TMJ patient, they used cold on me.

Good luck. Chcek out the Therabyte, too. Look on the main site.
