Psychosocial factors influence the perception of TMD signs and symptoms. Regular mindfulness practice supports their management through emotional and cognitive self-regulation, modulating the TMD-related pain experience. To analyse the influence of a mindfulness-based intervention on pain, cognitions, behaviour and emotions reported by women with TMD-related chronic pain. Eighty-four women,...
Mind-body therapies (MBTs) use mental abilities to modify electrical neural activity across brain networks. Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a non-invasive brain stimulation technique that modulates neuronal membrane potentials to enhance neuroplasticity. A combination of these treatment strategies may generate synergistic or additive effects, and thus has been more commonly...
The objective of this study was to examine the associations between baseline electroencephalogram (EEG)-assessed brain oscillations and subsequent response to four neuromodulatory treatments. Based on available research, we hypothesized that baseline theta oscillations would prospectively predict response to hypnotic analgesia. Analyses involving other oscillations and the other treatments...
