Temporomandibular joint disorder (TMJ), also known as TMD, is a prevalent condition that affects the joint connecting the lower jawbone to the skull. It can lead to jaw pain, discomfort, and additional facial and head symptoms. While the exact cause of TMJ is not always clear, it is commonly associated with issues related to the jaw muscles or joints.
Diagnosing TMJ typically involves a comprehensive examination of the jaw joint and surrounding muscles, combined with imaging tests such as X-rays or MRI scans. Treatment options for TMJ aim to alleviate pain, improve jaw function, and reduce associated symptoms.
Unveiling Relief: Calmare® Scrambler Therapy for TMJ
One effective treatment method for chronic pain conditions like TMJ is Calmare® Scrambler Therapy. This therapy, offered at the CRPS and Neuropathic Pain Center of America, has shown promising results in managing and reducing chronic pain. Calmare® Scrambler Therapy is a non-invasive, drug-free approach that works by using electric stimulation to "scramble" pain signals sent to the brain, replacing them with non-painful signals. This innovative therapy has been used to effectively treat various chronic pain conditions, including TMJ.
