FACEFORMER efficient in the treatment of orofacial dysfunctions
In this study, the efficacy of FACEFORMER Therapy and another nonapparatus myofunctional therapy method were compared. Based on the results, it was found that harmonization of orofacial dysfunctions is possible with both functional therapy concepts. However, FACEFORMER therapy proved to be the more efficient method within the six-month observation period.
An efficient method to harmonize orofacial dysfunctions
This study compares the efficacy of FACEFORMER Therapy and another nonapparatus myofunctional therapy method. Based on the results, it was determined that harmonization of orofacial dysfunctions is possible with both functional therapy concepts. However, FACEFORMER Therapy proved to be the more efficient method within the six-month observation period.
Successfully treating bruxism
Craniocervical dysfunctions can be corrected by regular FACEFORMER training. Bruxism and associated pain are reduced or completely eliminated. Most study participants were free of symptoms after only eight weeks.
Improve running performance with FACEFORMER method
In a pilot study the positive influence of the FACEFORMER method on the mileage of the test persons was examined.
FACEFORMER Therapy and the Impact on Spinal Cord Position
The development of a physiological head balance influences the posture of the cervical and lumbar spine. FACEFORMER Therapy achieves this by activating the muscles of the craniomandibular and cervical system,
FACEFORMER therapy is effective against snoring and sleep apnea
In a controlled study (pilot study), the success of FACEFORMER Therapy in patients with snoring and sleep apnea was evaluated. For a three-month phase, a daily therapy of 4 exercise units was required. One exercise unit comprised 20 repetitions of the basic exercise and 20 repetitions of at least one pull exercise. After approx. 3 weeks, when improved nasal breathing could be felt as a result of training, the FACEFORMER was also applied at night. The goal was to get used to nasal breathing.
Myofunctional therapy with the FACEFORMER – Indications and treatment strategies
This study examinated indications and treatment strategies for myfunctional therapy with the FACEFORMER. The goal was the clinical presentation of a new diagnostic and therapeutical concept for myofunctional disturbances of the facial musculature and the mandibular (jaw) musculature. As a conclusion, the FACEFORMER device seems useful for broad clinical applications, because the first positive changes were diagnosable within the first two weeks of therapy. Furthermore, as determined from patient information, the new device was much better accepted than the other aiding devices.
