“Katie Pudhorodsky is very passionate about jaw health. She strives to help the audience treatment plan and implement therapies to relieve the pain and suffering of the patient. You will receive education about the head/ neck/ jaw that you never knew. Did you know eating dinner on the couch is bad for the TMJ?
Mind blown!”
“I had the privilege of attending the CE course led by Katie Pudhorodsky on Jaw Muscle Review Relating
to TMJD & Headaches and I can confidently say it was an exceptional experience. Katie brought not only a wealth of knowledge but also a passion for the subject that was truly inspiring. Her ability to relate the information into practical application was an added bonus.
From the beginning, the course was engaging and well-structured, making complex concepts accessible and relatable. Katie included real-world examples, which kept the participants actively involved. Their ability to facilitate meaningful dialogue among attendees enriched our understanding and allowed attendees to implement instances from our own experiences.
What stood out most was Katie’s dedication to ensuring that everyone grasped the material. . I left the course feeling more confident and equipped to apply the knowledge gained in my professional practice.
I highly recommend Katie for any future CE opportunities - her expertise, coupled with their engaging teaching style, makes for a truly impactful learning experience.”
