"The key to quick results with chiropractic is in finding the right chirporactor, one whose style and technique best matches the specific needs of the individual patient"

 

 

MICROCURRENT THERAPY

Microcurrent therapy is the latest in electro–acupuncture. Dr. Dan has successfully used this form of therapy to treat all sorts of situational or chronic pain in the body from muscle and joint pain to migraine headaches.

Dr. Dan has used microcurrent stimulation in his practice for years. The stimulator used by Dr. Dan is a hand-held device that is FDA approved. It safely produces small but significant currents of electricity.

Dr. Dan can use the microcurrent stimulator to detect and treat areas of increased conductivity (low impedance) such as areas of injury and active trigger points.

How It Actually Works


Dr. Dan uses this technology to stimulate specific points on the skin, which helps to reduce the firing of pain signals from the nerve endings. The microcurrent stimulator has a computer chip inside that detects areas of increased conductivity on the surface of the body, as typically found with active acupuncture points. The amount of electricity introduced into the body is very similar to the amount that the body uses to stay alive. The treatment is painless, but many patients report unusual sensations in other parts of the body that are not being directly treated.

Benefits


Dr. Dan has found this type of treatment, along with chiropractic spinal adjustments, to be helpful with migraine headaches, low back pain, sciatica, sports injuries, and repetetive motion disorders, along with other bodily dysfunctions.
