FSM

The Benefits of Frequency Specific Microcurrent – FSM

FSM is a device which the practitioners sets to different frequencies to greatly reduce pain, actively encourages and speeds up the body’s own natural healing process.

The benefit of FSM for players of contact sports is injuries either chronic or acute clear up in record time. FSM can remodel scar tissue in one 60 minute session that would take months to do manually. FSM is especially good at treating nerve and muscle pain, inflammation and scar tissue.

Traditionally a hamstring injury can take up to 6 weeks to heal properly, now using FSM machine, it is possible to have you back to match fitness in as little as 3 maybe 4 weeks.



                       

Frequency Specific Microcurrent:

  • Can heal conditions that have not responded to other treatments
  • Is painless
  • Increases speed of recovery
  • Can be used to treat old injuries
  • Reduces inflammation of any injury by 62%

 

The typical injuries that can be treated with FSM are:

  • Sprains and strains in muscles and ligaments
  • Muscle bruises, both deep and superficial with/without hematoma
  • Pain associated with fractures and dislocations
  • Sports injuries to neck or upper back
  • Trauma
  • Bulging discs
  • Herniated discs
  • Bursitis, tendonitis, arthritis
  • Hamstring and groin strains
  • Nerve pain

What is the difference between Microcurrent & Laser?

Microcurrent provides electrons and increases ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate, basically energy) production in cells. Lasers provide photons. There is currently no research suggesting that laser treatment increases ATP (energy) production.

What is the difference between Microcurrent & TENS?

TENS deliver milliamp current and block pain messengers that are trying to get up the spine to the brain, masking the pain receptors. Microcurrent delivers micro amperage current which increases ATP production directly in the tissues which treats the problem directly as well as reducing the pain symptoms.

What is the difference between Microcurrent & ultra sound?

Ultrasound creates ultra sonic vibrations and heat by vibrating the water molecules in the tissue. It does not provide current nor does it change ATP (energy) status.
