What is frequency specific micro-current? Micro-current is a technique for treating pain by using micro-amperage current. Frequency Specific Micro-current (FSM) can dramatically increase the body’s ability to heal and repair itself. This therapy is able to safely and effectively increase the rate of healing up to 5 times.
A frequency is the rate at which a sound wave or electronic pulse is produced. This measurement is registered in hertz (hz). In using FSM to treat pain, it’s been found that various frequencies can be used to potentially reduce inflammation, repair tissue and reduce pain.
How does it work? Micro-current increases the adenosine triphosphate (ATP), energy in the cells, up to 500%. This can dramatically increase your tissues healing rate. ATP is the universal energy currency for all living things. Every cell in the world uses ATP for energy. Every function in the human body is electrically based. The electricity made inside your cells provides the power for your body.
When you have damaged tissue there is a higher electrical resistance in the injured area. This can lead to impairment of the healing process and cause inflammation. When micro-current is applied the resistance to this damaged tissue is reduced, allowing the current to flow through and reestablish normal function again. Because micro-current is close to the body’s electrical level of your cells, it is able to rebalance your body’s electricity. This returns the damaged cells to a normal state.
Facts about FSM:
Increases ATP (body’s own chemical energy) production up to 500%
Stimulates lymphatic flow
Restores depleted adrenal function
Enhances cellular repair and immune function
Increases “feel good” Beta endorphin levels
Enhances neuromuscular recovery rate between events
Reduces fracture repair time up to 50%
What does it mean to you?
Decreased pain
Increased rate of healing
Increased range of motion
Decreased swelling
Why do the frequencies on the machine need to be changed? Frequency Specific Micro-current (FSM) means there is a specific frequency for conditions such as inflammation, chronic inflammation, fibrosis, irritation, pain, spasm, trauma, etc. There are also specific frequencies for the tissues such as nerves, muscles, tendons, ligaments, disc, bursa, lymphatics, etc.
Hydration
Drinking plenty of water 1-2 hours before treatment and then again after the treatment is advised. This will help the conductivity of the cells and can help prevent some of the side effects.
Side Effects
The side effects can include nausea, fatigue, drowsiness, temporary increase in pain or a flu-like feeling. Drinking more water will help if you do feel any of these side effects. Most experience no adverse side effects.
