FREQUENCY SPECIFIC MICROCURRENT
“As an internist, I have been taught that healing takes time and requires patience. In my 20 years in medicine I have never experienced any treatment or therapy that provides relief and results as quickly as Frequency Specific Microcurrent. I have been amazed and pleased.”
Robert Lerman, MD, PhD
What is Frequency Specific Microcurrent?
Frequency Specific Microcurrent is an exciting new way of treating nerve and muscle pain and many other conditions using specific frequencies and micro amperage current. Microcurrent frequencies resonate with body tissue to make lasting and beneficial changes to the tissue.
To use an analogy, consider a rainbow of colors. Each color of the rainbow vibrates to a different frequency. Just as the different colors of the rainbow vibrate to different frequencies, so do the tissues of the body. If there is damage to a particular tissue due to trauma or stress or infection, the frequency vibration of the tissue will change. For example, scar tissue will change the vibration of the skin, the muscle and the connective tissue. Frequency Specific Microcurrent allows us to target tissues and to restore the health of the tissue.
Why Does the Doctor Change the Frequencies on the Machine?
We have observed that specific frequencies seem to do specific things to the muscles and other tissues. When there is an injury or stress to the body, often more than one tissue is affected. For example, if you have a whiplash injury, muscle tissue, connective tissue, fascial tissue, and ligaments will all have some level of injury. Hence, we treat each of those tissues with a different frequency.
Why Can’t I Feel It?
The current is so low that it does not stimulate sensory nerves.
Do the Benefits Last?
Every patient responds individually but the changes to the muscles seem to be long lasting. About 60-80% of the changes created in one treatment last until the next treatment, about four to seven days. Your muscles are used to being the way they are and may return to the old configuration if not treated again. Although patients have had permanent changes in one treatment, the average number of treatments depends on the complexity of the problem and the health status of the patient.
What are the Side Effects?
Microcurrent changes the muscle tissues, removing long stored waste products and increasing cellular metabolism so quickly that there is often a detoxification reaction after treatment. The side effects can include nausea, fatigue, drowsiness, a temporary increase in pain or a flu-like feeling. Drink at least two quarts of water in the two hours following treatment. Also, be sure to take any supplements that have been prescribed.
