THERAPY AND REHAB

What is FSM?

FSM is a system of treatment using micro-amperage current and the resonance effect of frequencies on tissue and conditions to reduce symptoms and improve health. Microcurrent devices deliver frequencies and current in millionths of an amp and have been shown in published studies to increase energy (ATP) production in cells by 500%. Two channels are used; one channel delivers a frequency to address a specific tissue, and the other channel delivers one to neutralize a specific condition
or pathology.

What to expect:

You will have warm towels placed on your skin in the area to be treated. Wear loose clothing that can be moved, or dress in layers to allow accessibility.

Hydration is critical. Drink at least one quart of water in the hour preceding treatment. If you are chronically dehydrated, you will need to drink large amounts of water in the days before your treatments.

Microcurrent is the current in millionths of an ampere. Micro-amperage current is the same kind of current your body produces on its own so you can’t feel the current.

Electrical stimulation to the muscle also stimulates local nerve cells and can have a pain reducing/analgesic effect due to potentially blocking the transmission of the pain signals or by stimulating the release of pain reducing endorphins. It increases localized blood flow, and can help to rehab muscle tissue that has been injured.

Near-infrared (NIR) light therapy is a form of treatment that employs light and heat generated by the near infrared light to treat numerous medical conditions. For example it has been known to strengthen and intensify DNA and protein synthesis in addition to increasing cellular growth. Near-infrared light therapy, utilizes the near infrared light to increase blood perfusion, oxygen partial pressure and tissue temperature. It also hastens cell repair process by directly stimulating the mitochondria.

In near-infrared light therapy, infrared radiation is focused on the injured part of the body for a certain period of time. This brings the feeling of relief to the patient. The best thing about this treatment is that it is a simple procedure and is painless. It also gives an instant relief to the patient.

What is PEMF?

PEMF stands for Pulsed Electro-Magnetic Field. PEMF devices use electrical energy to safely direct magnetic pulses through injured tissue. Each magnetic pulse induces an electrical signal that stimulates cellular repair.

A NASA study showed that PEMF devices were ideal to stimulate cell growth, repair and healing.

PEMF Significance

Having healthy cells is not a passive process. Active, regular tuning-up of our cells is not only feasible, but also necessary to slow aging and reduce the risk of cell dysfunction. We are, after all, only as healthy as our cells. Imperceptible cell dysfunction that is not corrected early can lead to disease. Fine-tuning can be done daily in only minutes, using pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMFs). In addition, when there is a known imbalance (when symptoms are present) or there is a known disease or condition, PEMF treatments, used either alone or along with other therapies, can often help cells rebalance dysfunction faster.

How can you use PEMF?

• Healing of damaged and inflamed tissues
• General muscular and nervous system health and function
• Stimulate the body’s natural healing processes
• Reduce stress and relax muscles
• Increase immune system function
• Reduce pain, inflammation, the effects of stress on the body, and platelet adhesion
• Improve energy, circulation, blood and tissue oxygenation, sleep quality, blood pressure and cholesterol levels, the uptake of nutrients, cellular detoxification and the ability to regenerate cells
• Balance the immune system and stimulate RNA and DNA
• Accelerate repair of bone and soft tissue

Ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves to create deep heat within the body. This stimulates healing for acute conditions such as bursitis and tendonitis by increased blood flow to the injured area as well as decreasing pain and swelling.
