Intramuscular Stimulation (IMS) Intramuscular Stimulation (IMS) is an effective treatment for chronic pain of a neuropathic origin. Neuropathic pain occurs when nerves malfunction following injury or tissue irritation. Nerve endings become overly sensitive and begin to interpret normal sensations as painful. The term for this is âhypersensitivityâ.

Probable, which means âlikely,â comes from the Latin term probabilis, which itself stems from probare, meaning âto approve, prove, or test.â Related words referring to the first sense include approbation and probity; prove itself is akin to probable, as is probe. Probability is the term for the branch of mathematics dealing with chance and is used in logic to refer to the degree to which two statements confirm each other. Probable refers to what is likely to be done, to occur, or to be true; possible refers to what can be done, to occur, or to be true. If you say something is probable, you are expressing more confidence about it than if you state that it is possible.
