Microcurrent Therapy

Pain and injuries can really slow you down and even change your lifestyle, especially when it does not go away. Here at Forsstrom Chiropractic Center, PC, we like to use advanced technology to help our patients heal from their pain and injuries. One of these forms of technology is called microcurrent therapy. We utilize this form of treatment to help patients heal more quickly.

In a healthy body, there are natural electrical currents that help our cells communicate. When an area of the body is injured or when there is disease present, the cells cannot communicate properly which can slow down the healing process.

Microcurrent therapy is the process of restoring these electromagnetic fields. Electrodes are placed onto the skin over the affected area. When the machine is turned on, very small microcurrents are passed through the skin and into the soft tissue that is in pain or injured. The electrical currents are so small that patients usually do not feel them. In addition to speeding up the healing process, microcurrent therapy can also reduce pain, reduce inflammation, and restore range of motion.

This type of treatment is beneficial for both acute and chronic. It has been shown to be beneficial to our patients with back and neck pain. If you are suffering through pain or have recently suffered an injury, microcurrent therapy may be able to help you.
