FREQUENCY SPECIFIC MICROCURRENT THERAPY
Frequency-specific microcurrent (FSM) is a technique for treating pain by using low-level electrical current. The current is delivered to certain parts of the body in an attempt to relieve the pain.
Various frequencies can be used to potentially reduce inflammation (swelling), repair tissue, and reduce pain. Micro-current is applied to the body with a device that delivers a mild current. Microcurrent is an extremely mild electrical current (one millionth of an ampere). The human body actually produces its own current just as powerful.
Depending on the tissue involved, specific frequencies are selected to encourage natural healing of the body and to reduce pain. Frequencies have been identified for nearly every type of tissue in the body. This therapy can potentially increase the production of the substance ATP in injured tissues. ATP is the major source of energy for all cellular reactions in the body. The increase of ATP can be as significant as 500% in damaged tissues, this may help with the recovery process.
Depending on the condition, treatment with microcurrent can “loosen” or soften the muscles, which can help relieve pain and/or stiffness. FSM is most often used to treat pain, especially nerve and muscle pain, inflammation, and scar tissue, from the following conditions:
• Shingles
• Burns
• Kidney stones
• Asthma
• Irritable bowel syndrome
• Disc injuries
• Fibromyalgia
• Diabetic neuropathy
• Neuromas (overgrowth and scarring to a nerve after an injury)
• Tendinopathy (inflammation and/or swelling of the tendon)
• Acute (sudden) and chronic (long-term) musculoskeletal injuries • Acute and chronic neuropathic (nerve) pain
• Chronic fracture and bone pain
• Arthritis
• Torticollis (the head is tilted to one side)
• Disc injuries/discogenic- and facet-based pain
• Viscerally-referred pain
• Concussions
• Headaches
• Plantar fasciitis (pain in the heel and foot)
• Sports injuries
• Wounds
