Patrick Lin

Patrick Lin graduated as a physiotherapist from the University of Queensland in 2021. His interest in physiotherapy began with his own experiences struggling with chronic injuries while playing sport. Patrick also holds a Bachelor of Science from the University of Queensland. 

Patrick formerly worked in general physiotherapy and developed an interest in headaches and jaw pain after working with several TMD and migraine sufferers. He also experienced lockjaw for a few months which added a personal element of interest in this area. He joined the Headache Neck and Jaw Clinic soon after to further develop his skills in helping patients with these conditions. 

Patrick is also involved with the Cadmus Society Study Club, a dental study group affiliated with the Australian Dental Association Queensland (ADAQ). Here he participates in regular professional development to better understand the dental approach to orofacial pain, and to facilitate multi-disciplinary approaches to patient care. He attended as a speaker to both Cadmus and ADAQ events to promote the coordination of care between physiotherapists and dentists. 

Partick has also completed the Watson Headache® Institute Level 1 Foundation Course since joining the team. 

Patrick is a firm believer in the power of patient education and believes that it is the most impactful tool in complex and chronic pain management.
