MICROCURRENT
Microcurrent is a monophasic waveform of very low intensity which
replicates the body’s use of natural frequencies when repairing
or growing its new cells. It creates a physiological electric modality
that increases ATP (energy) production in the cells of your body.
The physiological working mechanism of this effect is not clearly
understood yet, but has previously been shown to help with
reduction in healing time.
PARAMETERS:
Frequency
In a pulsed current, the Frequency refers to the number
of pulses that occur in a one second period of time and
is denoted in (Hz) or Pulses Per Second (pps).
Polarity
This refers to the polarity (
+/-
) of the red lead wire;
connect the lead wire to the active electrode.
