ABOUT TINNITUS & NJHRC's TINNITUS TREATMENT
In the case of subjective tinnitus the noise may be heard as a result of neuromuscular force problems such as overworked muscles in the head, neck, and face. Bite misalignment is usually present and may have been originally caused by some form of accidental trauma to the head and ears.
Eliminating the force imbalances and restoring harmony IS possible. Quite frankly, if you have already sought conventional treatments and had no luck, your tinnitus could easily be due to unresolved force problems. Tinnitus treatments at NJHRC could change everything.
At New Jersey Headache Relief Center we will do everything we can to get to the root of your tinnitus condition. No medications or surgical procedures are ever used when we treat tinnitus. If we uncover neuromuscular force problems then painless rehabilitation is an option that could produce long-term tinnitus relief.
IF OTHER TINNITUS TREATMENTS FAIL, WHY WAIT?
Below we briefly discuss some of the beneficial rehabilitation & treatment modalities that NJHRC may employ in your customized tinnitus treatment course:
- MANUAL MANIPULATION
- CRANIAL ELECTROTHERAPY
- ULTRASOUND OF THE MUSCLES
- LOW-LEVEL COLD LASER
- REHABILITATION ORTHOTICS
Trigger Point Treatment
What we want to do is identify the trigger points in the head, neck, face, and shoulders so they can be broken up because tinnitus symptoms can be exacerbated by the existence of trigger points. The goal then is to increase blood flow to those areas, and decrease inflammation and pain if present. This helps the body to rapidly heal and can reduce tinnitus symptoms.
Alpha Stim Treatment
Electrical stimulation can be beneficial for tinnitus patients because the electrical signals may reduce the muscle spasms and referral pain associated with trigger points. Electrical stimulation alters pain signals being sent to your brain, encourages nerve regeneration where there has been nerve damage, and may help you end the noise.
Beneficial Soundwaves
The ultrasound device we use can penetrate deep under the skin which means it is a good choice for rehabilitating trigger points that may be contributing to the tinnitus condition you experience.
Cold Laser Technology
Cold laser application offers additional benefits to tinnitus sufferers. It can help by reducing pain and inflammation to muscles of the head, face, and neck, but it can also help tinnitus patients by promoting the reconnection of neurological pathways that have degraded over time.
Bite Force Realignment
Rehabilitation orthotic devices are placed inside the mouth to train the bite to return to its best and most natural resting position. The muscles of the head, neck, teeth, mouth, jaws, etc. are related in such a way that a rehab orthotic is needed to maintain the progress made during treatment.
Breakthrough treatment protocols for tinnitus such as this can and should be performed by a trained and experienced neuromuscular dentist. Dr. Ekstein can augment your treatment with rehabilitation orthotics to make long-term tinnitus relief possible.
GET TO THE HEART OF THE PROBLEM WITH TINNITUS TREATMENT AT NJHRC!
Dr. Ekstein begins with a series of tinnitus diagnosis protocols which includes careful examination of your past history with tinnitus and other potentially related health issues. In a single office visit he takes precise measurements of you bite force distributions, maps your range of motion debilitation, and palpates the muscles to find neuromuscular stress points.
Once we know what’s going on, YOU know what’s going on. Dr. Ekstein can then design a customized tinnitus treatment plan to correct your unique force relationship problems.
Tinnitus treatment at NJHRC always looks to eliminate root causes for tinnitus. You could be largely if not entirely free from tinnitus suffering in less than 3 months.
