About Your Visit

Message from Jennifer Chu, M.D.

Dear Patient:

We look forward to helping you with the diagnosis and management of your acute and/or chronic nerve related muscle discomfort and/or pain. Muscle discomfort and/or pain relieving results are achieved when nerve muscle meeting points known as trigger points can be located and stimulated within a given time frame of a session. From the type of twitches elicited by eToims®, you will be able to understand the health status of your nerves and muscles. Significant spasm and tightness of the muscles produce low force twitches since the trigger points are difficult to locate. On the other hand, strong force twitches result when trigger points can be located and stimulated. Therefore, from the quality of twitches elicited, you will soon become educated on your possibility of achieving pain relief with each eToims® session. Depending on the quality of twitches, patients may be able to achieve discomfort and/or pain relief even with the very first session and cumulative results can accrue as sessions continue.

Chronic pain leads not only to suffering from the intensity of the physical pain but also to suffering from emotional pain due to the disbelief of others. The electrodiagnostic studies and the nerve and muscle responses during eToims® sessions will help objectively document and quantify your nerve related muscle pain.

eToims® Twitch Relief Method is your faithful partner that can help lessen the physical and emotional burdens along your path to a better quality of life.

Jennifer Chu, M.D.
