I use three state of the art electrical therapy modalities, all FDA approved:
I use a Biofeedback system called an LSA (Lymbic System Assessment) from Zyto Corp. All biofeedback systems, including an EEG or an EKG, give you a stimulus and then measure and record the response. I have the advantage with this galvanic skin response system to see where you have imbalances from those responses. I can see how stress is affecting your body and if you could benefit from natural remedies to assist nutrient absorption or the clearing of toxic waste. These two functions are necessary for you to maintain your health. Biofeedback helps me to see how and where to assist you back to balance before chemical or chronic changes might occur. Biofeedback also provides information that may be indicators of why you have pain and how to reduce this pain.
I use two other fantastic electrical modalities as a physical therapist and these include cold laser therapy and FSM (frequency specific microcurrent). Laser light and microcurrent can be used together or separately to reduce inflammation and pain, dramatically speed up recovery time from injury, return you quickly to sports, strengthening programs, and normal pain-free movement. The Terraquant laser uses a combination of magnetics, infra red light, and pulsating/burst laser light. It is very beneficial for reducing muscle spasms, increasing the movement of lymph and circulation, and decreasing swelling and pain. The laser light stimulates the cells and moves the fluid around the cells bringing in nutrients and eliminating stagnant toxic waste. Frequency specific microcurrent is an FDA approved TENS (transcutaneous electric nerve stimulator). It uses very specific electric stimulation in a gentle microcurrent to decrease pain and speed up the recovery of acute or chronic conditions.
See www.frequencyspecific.com for more information.
So the LSA biofeedback guides me with what electrical or energetic changes are needed and where. The laser and the microcurrent are the tools for quick recovery.
You will also be assisted with exercises when ready to begin your recovery and improve strength. Injury prevention is important and a guided strengthening program recommended.
