The course was composed of 20 excellent students! Due to COVID restrictions, the lecture component consisting of 18 hours was taught over Zoom from my office and the workshop component consisting of 24 hours was taught on campus. To the best of my knowledge, this is the only comprehensive course of any physical therapy program specific to the evaluation and treatment of the sub-occipital, cervical, craniofacial, and temporomandibular complex. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e4ec326dd594742239cffe7/1638480850215-M9QZXNNP30UUZE2TGIEP/Columbia%2B2021.jpg Courses https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e4ec326dd594742239cffe7/1649173025032-3XMUF50UZZVU3WBX62AG/IMG_2885.jpeg Courses - Students from Course XIV https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e4ec326dd594742239cffe7/1649173025131-ZVKL9N232S7XUWTAJXSO/IMG-1733.jpg Courses - Rachel Sobczak, DPT https://www.princetonheadnecktmd.com/about-dr-mannheimer daily 0.75 2025-11-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e4ec326dd594742239cffe7/1595461856790-WXZC9M4DQK6HSB01AKRW/jeffrey+mannheimer+young.jpg About Dr. Mannheimer Dr. Mannheimer completed the required two-year military obligation in 1967-1969 as a commissioned officer in the United States Public Health Service working as a physical therapist. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e4ec326dd594742239cffe7/1585324980338-VDF3I1GP23MO2DYX46RU/7BDC68F9-41CF-4950-90F6-4DF3989D48BF.JPG About Dr. Mannheimer Jeffrey Mannheimer receiving an award from Steve Kraus at the annual scientific meeting at the American Academy of Orofacial Pain in 2015 in recognition of his outstanding dedication, commitment, and accomplishments toward the promotion and education of physical therapists in the field of craniomandibular and cervical disorders. https://www.princetonheadnecktmd.com/about daily 0.75 2023-12-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e4ec326dd594742239cffe7/1592408517925-78WVSPTN1VH71LCRSXZ0/IMG_1850.jpg About My Specialty Practice https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e4ec326dd594742239cffe7/1592408638268-MCE3LHOVXRYS9M3I2UXB/IMG_1713.jpg About My Specialty Practice https://www.princetonheadnecktmd.com/new-page-5 daily 0.75 2020-06-08 https://www.princetonheadnecktmd.com/conditions-treated daily 0.75 2020-06-24 https://www.princetonheadnecktmd.com/methodology daily 0.75 2020-07-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e4ec326dd594742239cffe7/1592413450536-47KBY60XL8W86B0LQX76/Picture+5.png Methodology First treatment S/P surgery to primarily address acute inflammation, pain, and masticatory muscle guarding.
