Frequency Specific Microcurrent
What is Frequency Specific Microcurrent (FSM)?
Frequency Specific Microcurrent (FSM) is a therapeutic technique that uses low-level electrical currents to treat pain and promote healing. The core idea behind FSM is that different tissues in the body respond to different frequencies of electrical currents, and by applying specific frequencies, practitioners can target and treat various conditions more effectively.
Key Aspects of FSM
Low-Level Electrical Currents: The microcurrents used in FSM are extremely low, typically in the microampere range (millionths of an ampere). This is much lower than other forms of electrical stimulation like TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation).
Frequency-Specific: FSM uses pairs of frequencies simultaneouslyā€”one frequency is intended to target the specific tissue type (e.g., muscle, nerve, scar tissue), and the other frequency is meant to address the condition or issue affecting that tissue (e.g., inflammation, pain, trauma).
Mechanism:Ā The mechanism by which FSM is believed to work involves increasing ATP (adenosine triphosphate) production, reducing inflammation, promoting cellular repair, and improving blood flow. The low currents are thought to interact with the cells, tissues, and nervous system in a way that helps restore normal function and reduce pain.
Benefits of FSM
*removes scar tissue
*reduces inflammation and pain
*frees joints and increase mobility
*repairs partially torn tendons and ligaments
*stabilizes the nervous system
*Eliminates acute shingles in 2 days
*Speeds up healing of wounds and bones to half the time!
*increases serotoninĀ
*decreases cytokines (marker for inflammation) within minutes
*eliminates adhesions
How is FSM applied?Ā
FSM is usually administered through electrodes placed on the skin, often at specific points related to the condition being treated. The frequencies are carefully selected based on the patient's condition and the practitioner's assessment.
Treats Conditions Such As:
Ā
- fibromyalgia
- arthritis
- tears, strains, sprains
- chronic back pain
- headaches
- neurologic conditions
- sports injuries
- nerve pain
- internal organ dysfunction
Is FSM safe?
FSM is generally considered safe, as the currents are very low and non-invasive. However, like all therapeutic modalities, its efficacy can vary depending on the individual and the condition being treated. Research and clinical evidence support its use for certain conditions,
