WHAT IS MICROCURRENT THERAPY?
Microcurrent Therapy uses extremely tiny electrical currents (amounts of electricity measured in millionths of an amp, or micro amps) to help relieve pain and heal soft tissues of the body. The "microcurrent" designation distinguishes it from regular TENS therapy, which uses currents measured in mA (or milliamps). Typically TENS devices deliver currents up to 80 mA, but the limit for microcurrents is about 8 mA, equivalent to 8000 µA (or micro amps). Microcurrent units may operate well below that, at about 900 µA.

HOW DOES MICROCURRENT THERAPY WORK?
Injury to the body disrupts its normal electrical activity. Microcurrent Therapy produces minute electrical signals like those naturally occurring when the body is repairing damaged tissues. By applying similar electrical currents, the healing process is enhanced.
WHY IS MICROCURRENT THERAPY USED?
Microcurrent Therapy is often recommended in cases involving soft tissue inflammation or muscle spasm. Since Microcurrent Therapy mimics the body's electrical fields it is helpful in relieving pain and stimulating the healing of soft tissues.
PATIENT BENEFITS
•
Can help speed the healing process
• Reduces swelling and inflammation
•
Masks acute and chronic pain
• Releases muscle trigger points
•
Improves soft tissue regeneration
Microcurrent Therapy approximates the natural electrical currents of the body to enhance the healing process.

MICRO II Dual Channel Microcurrent Stimulator for pain management and healing. Compact and easy to use. Timer 10, 20, 40 minutes.Modified Square DC Biphasic Pulses of 0.5Hz, 8Hz and 80Hz changing polarity at intervals of 1 second.
Two channel unit which offers a new µA/mA switch which allows use of sensory stimulation (0 to 8 milliamps) prior to microcurrent (0 to 900 microamp) treatment.The Micro-300 is unique over other units in that it also incorporates a 10,000 Hz carrier frequency which produces deeper treatment penetration..
This Micro 400 TENS unit is thought to work in two different ways: first, "high-frequency" continuous and mild electro-activity can block pain signals traveling to the brain. Second, TENS is thought to stimulate the body's own natural pain control mechanism.
