People experience pain in almost every type of health condition. Sometimes, it is acute in nature, while some types of pain last for a very long period. A person may experience severe pain, dull pain or sometimes extremely unbearable type of pain. Most of the times, pain associated with injuries or musculoskeletal problems is quite agonizing and the person wishes to have relief at the earliest.

History

Physical parameters like heat and light have been studied and found useful in relieving pain in injury and certain health conditions. In addition to this, electricity as a treatment modality has been studied by many physicians. It has been used for centuries in the Western countries. A Greek physician realized its importance and promoted persons to stand on a wet beach around an electric eel.

Principle

The basic concept of microcurrent therapy lies in the fact that a person’s body functions like an electromagnetic system and responds to the energy that surrounds them. There are electrical frequencies passing in and out of the body cells and the person experiences good health when the balance of this system is maintained.

When the person experiences any injury, this electromagnetic system gets disturbed. The normal electrical activity is disrupted and it then begins to affect the regular functioning of the body cells. They become less receptive to useful nutrients and more susceptible to harmful environment. Hence, there is a need to revive the damaged electrical activity with the help of electrical stimulation. Microcurrent therapy aims at initiating the healing process of the damaged tissues and improves circulation, nutrition uptake and overall immunity of the person.

Method

A therapist trained in microcurrent therapy takes a person’s history and after thorough examination of the health condition or injury, decides on a treatment plan. The therapy includes providing stimulation on specific parts of body with the help of low voltage electric current. Machines like electro-acuscope and electro-myoscope are also used for this purpose. Hand held probes are to give stimulation and may last for 5 to 10 minutes.
