I started seeing a chiropractor about a year ago, and he did various treatments to help with pain and how far I can open my jaw. Also, he used a laser on my joint. Has anyone else experienced this?
After treatment I was virtually pain free for 6 months!! In the last few months, unfortunately, the pain has been worse than ever, but I'm hoping his treatments are as effective this time around.
So, has anyone else had laser treatment? Has it been effective for you?
I am so sorry for what you are going through. I have not had laser treatment personally, but do use a combination of therapies to help me manage things.
Anything is worth a try, as long as everyone is on the same page (meaning, all treating physicians are informed). There are lots of options ranging from massage, biofeedback, acupuncture, sauna, IV infusions or pushes....
If you are finding that your current program isn't helping... talk to your provider about other options available.
