I'm 64, and I'd try just about anything to get rid of this TMJ pain! An acquaintance of mine, who's in her 80s, has gone to chiropractors all her life and used them as primary-care physicians. (I would never do that. I think chiropractors are great for backs, but that's about it.) Anyway, her chiropractor put a "staple" in one of her ears to "cure" her tinnitus. It didn't work, which didn't surprise me.

@hazelblumberg I too am a bit leery of chiropractors and their claims to be able to fix just about everything. One told a friend who was having trouble conceiving that he could fix that. Really?

All I can say to chiropractors helping people conceive is LOL!
@parus Back when I had severe migraines I would have had anything and everything pierced if it would have given me some relief. Just thinking about the pain makes my head hurt.
