The TMR can be viewed as an electroceutical treatment to reduce and/or eliminate pain.
Its closest frame of reference would be as an electrical version of a nerve block. The TMR is non-invasive, and offers instant patient feedback. And it can be used as frequently as needed with no known side effects.
The TMR re-boots the nerves in the involved area to bring back a normal impulse so that it may supply appropriate neural control to the engaged cells. When impulses can be reset the painful condition can be reduced or eliminated entirely.
By targeting nerves which arguably control all body processes, there is a cascade effect of not only encouraging the release of the body’s natural opiates but of improving vascular responses, which is likely responsible for the objective and instant improvements in swelling commonly witnessed with TMR treatments.
