Microcurrent Stimulation
Microcurrent stimulation is a form of bio electric
stimulation. It has a long history of use in Western medicine. The
most common uses have been in the treatment of problems with the
muscles, joints, tendons, and bones. There have been tremendous
advances in this technology since the 1960s and a great increase
in the understanding of the mechanisms of action of microcurrent
stimulation therapies. This technology is used expensively by Olympic
and professional sports teams for the treatment of acute support
injuries, it is used by orthopedic surgeons for the treatment of
nonhealing bone fractures, plastic surgeons use it in special cases
to reduce the amount of scarring that forms after plastic surgery,
and there are new uses that have developed for the treatment of
retinal disease and other diseases in the eyeI. Please read some
of the additional materials on this page for further information
about microcurrent stimulation therapies. The topics in the menu
bar on the left are just a beginning and this page will be expanded
in the future to bring you more information about this exciting
technology.
