TGA Approved, Frequency Specific Microcurrent (FSM) therapy is a painless treatment which promotes the healing of conditions which have not responded to other treatment. The speed of recovery is increased, the effect is long lasting, and there is a more complete healing of tissues than with other therapies.

During the 1900’s Dr Albert Abrams was the first to use Frequency Specific Microcurrent (FSM) using a calibrated instrument which was capable of detecting the radiations of living tissues. Dr Abrams found all matter radiated electromagnetic energy specific to its own matter type. He became convinced that if he could match the frequencies involved, the tissue would be isolated and healed and would return to its natural frequency. Today there are many frequencies used by the FSM making it more versatile and able to be used for a wide variety of health concerns.

Every tissue within the body has its individual frequency or output and the practitioner is able to set the frequency of the device to match. This can be extremely helpful when there are a variety of conditions like trauma, inflammation, stress, or environmental influences. Several treatments may be required to enable complete recovery. Treatment is usually repeated within appropriate intervals for the cause and effect principle to take effect.

Because the output current from the device is low, it doesn't stimulate sensory nerves, and therefore the patient may only feel some warmth or slight coolness during the treatment.

Black graphite gloves are used to conduct the current from the device to the patient. By using the gloves the practitioner can feel the movement of muscles, and this helps the practitioner to currently place the current. The gloves are made from graphite to prevent the transfer of the current to the practitioner,

Frequencies are continually changed as it has been shown using a combination of frequencies directed toward the tissues will ease the pain and insure a faster, long lasting recovery.

Every person is an individual and the longevity and the severity of the condition will affect the number of treatments required. Approximately 60-80% of changes which occur within one treatment will last until the next treatment providing it is within an appropriate time frame of up to seven days. By undergoing continual treatment the patient is training his muscles to respond the way they are meant to, however until this becomes permanent the muscles will attempt to return to their old pathways which will lead to the return of the original condition.

The treatment may be used to alleviate both viral conditions and pain, and for skin toning.

There may be some side effects due to the release of toxins from the treatment; a patent may feel nauseated, fatigued, slightly drowsy, have a slight increase in pain, or have flu like symptoms after the initial treatment. These symptoms are completely normal. The patent should drink water before and after the treatment as this helps the release of toxins and reduces the severity of effects. The patient may also be advised to take supplements to aid the liver detoxificationpathways to deal more quickly with the by-products which will prevent overload. These symptoms only last for a few hours after treatment, however if symptoms do continue, then the patient should continue to drink water.

Follow Instructions!
It is very important patients follow the instructions as explained by the microcurrent practitioner due to the changes that will take place in the body as a result of the treatment. Tissue specific microcurrent therapy increases the cellular oxidation or ATP by 500% over 48 hours, thus increasing the uptake of oxygen and nutrients as well as cell regeneration and repair of tissue inflammation.

Where pain therapy has been undertaken using FSM, many patients experience a dramatic pain-free period after the first treatment, and opt out of follow-up therapy. However, it is wise to undergo the full series of treatments as advised by your practitioner to allow a full healing response.

In certain situations, the symptoms may return within a short period. This type of aggravation is common if the patient does not rest sufficiently, or if the treatment stirs up tissue stagnation during the healing process. Compliance with supplementation such as magnesium and EPA/DHA as recommended by the practitioner is important and increased dosages may be recommended during an aggravation.

It is important that patients understand the above-mentioned information prior to undertaking FSM treatment. Frequency specific microcurrent therapy is a medical procedure and can only be provided by a registered practitioner in Australia.
