Hi Eileen-
I do see a PT, he does "myofascial release" massage which is where they slowly move their hands around to help prevent scar tissue from forming. He doesn't do any internal massage though, although he pushes down on my teeth in the back. I wonder if he doesn't really know too much about trismus, having only had 1 patient before who got it from a blow to the face.
Maybe I should look around for someone else.
Thanks
Melissa
