You might not have heard of Frequency-Specific Microcurrent (FSM) treatments, but this innovative therapy may be able to help you get pain relief from a variety of musculoskeletal conditions. Learn how this natural, painless treatment method works.
In the fields of regenerative medicine and natural healing techniques, Frequency-Specific Microcurrent (FSM) is a cutting-edge treatment that helps your body repair and heal itself. Frequency-Specific Microcurrent is an FDA-approved solution for treating pain and improving your body’s functions at a cellular level.
Here at Life Balance Medical Center in Roscoe, Illinois, Alecia Arn, DC, and her skilled team offer FSM as part of a comprehensive treatment plan for a variety of conditions. Learn about the many benefits of Frequency-Specific Microcurrent and find out if it may be right for you.
Reduce pain and inflammation at a cellular level
Frequency-Specific Microcurrent uses a low-level electrical current that you can’t even feel to treat pain in a specific part of your body. It’s effective at reducing inflammation and pain and helping to repair tissue.
Your provider at Life Balance Medical Center uses a device to deliver a mild electrical current that’s just one-millionth of an amp — that’s very small, which is why you can’t feel the current. Your body also produces its own current within each cell. Depending on the tissue being treated (the source of your pain), we use specific microcurrent frequencies to promote healing.
A substance called ATP is a major source of energy for all cellular reactions in your body. It is also the substance your cells use to produce functions and create healing in damaged or injured tissue. FSM treatments increase ATP by up to 500%, which means it can help your tissue recover faster and alleviate pain and stiffness.
FSM treats a variety of conditions
Most often used to reduce nerve and muscle pain, Frequency-Specific Microcurrent is helpful for numerous health conditions, including:
- Scar tissue
- Shingles
- Burns
- Spinal disc injuries
- Fibromyalgia
- Diabetic neuropathy
- Tendinopathy
- Acute and chronic musculoskeletal injuries
- Arthritis
- Bone pain
- Joint pain
- Plantar fasciitis
- Sports injuries
- Headaches
FSM is a noninvasive, nonsurgical, nonpharmaceutical treatment for people who want to take a natural approach to healing and long-term pain relief. As part of a comprehensive treatment plan, FSM can help improve the quality of your life so you can function with less pain and discomfort. It even increases circulation and collagen and elastin production, making FSM a viable anti-aging treatment.
FSM is an easy, in-office treatment
In addition to being noninvasive and painless, FSM is an easy, in office-treatment that’s similar to a TENS unit. We apply sensors to specific areas of your body and tailor the frequencies of the microcurrent to your specific needs, based on your condition.
The microcurrents numb the chemical pain signals to your brain, decrease inflammation, and flood your cells with ATP. During your treatment, you may feel a warming sensation in the area as tissue softens or tight muscles loosen.
At Life Balance Medical Center, we focus on natural treatments and therapies that fully embrace and support your body’s innate abilities to heal itself. When it comes to musculoskeletal and nerve conditions, FSM is an integral part of our natural approach to optimizing your health and wellness.
