Widely known and well respected for it's consistent
effectiveness, the Acuscope is the most
technologically advanced, sophisticated and unique
equipment in today's age of electronic pain therapy. A
series of treatments has a cumulative effect which
results in long term relief for animals suffering from
the most acute and chronic neuro-muscular disorders. The
treatments greatly reduce common pain and swelling and
increase range of motion limitations associated with
many joint pathologies.
Perhaps the factor which contributes most
conspicuously to the outstanding effectiveness of the
system, is the minute level of electricity generated by
the system. The concept of mirco-current stimulation has
achieved widespread acceptance, even by many of the most
conservative medical pain management facilities because
no one can deny the validity of consistent results. A
wide variety of electrodes have been designed by a team
of biomedical engineers. This allows versatility in
selecting the most appropriate and effective probe,
plate or roller for the treatment.
 The modalities are applied primarily for pain
relief, to improve soft tissue function and increase
range of motion, faster healing of bones, ligaments, and
tendons. However, in numerous recent studies
micro-current stimulation has been proven to have a
profoundly beneficial effect on living tissue at the
cellular level. Micro-amperage (below 1 milliamp) is
the naturally occurring level of current generated
throughout the body. With this in mind, it is easy to
understand why supplying the kind of current naturally
occurring in healthy tissue promotes regenerative
metabolic activity.
In contrast to all mille-amperage nerve
stimulation devices (ordinary TENS) designed to bombard
the tissue and block pain signals from reaching the
brain, the Acuscope generates only the level of
current required to gently encourage nerve fiber to
return to conduction of normal electrical impulses. A
series of treatments have a positive cumulative effect
in contrast to ordinary TENS devices which provide only
temporary relief.
The most unique feature of the Acuscope
which sets it apart from other electrical stimulation
devices is the micro-chip circuitry designed to monitor
the tissue placed between the probes. Based on the
information it gathers, the unit is programmed to
calculate appropriate corrective feedback modulated
waveform variance. Other electrical stimulation units
produce a fixed output according to preset
specifications. The Acuscope picks up
abnormalities in nerve fiber impulses and modifies its
infinitely variable square-wave envelope output
appropriately until normal waveform patterns are being
conducted without resistance through the circuit
completed between the tissue and the probes. The
Acuscope reads neurological impedance along the
current flow and can discriminate point of high or low
resistance.
The Acuscope can also be used on small
animals with the same healing results. Please write or

ASKED QUESTIONS
How many treatments will a patient need?
The pain relief that follows each treatment of a given area
will last longer and longer, and each successive treatment
will require a shorter amount of time to be effective. The
number of treatments required will depend on the severity
and extent of the condition as well as the body's ability to
heal itself. Age, general state of health, habits, and even
state of mind may influence the length of time required for
complete recovery. Somewhere between five and fifteen
treatments is the normal average. Unlike other forms of pain
relief, such as therapy with certain drugs or higher
amperage electrical stimulators, the body does not build up
a tolerance to Acuscope treatments. Both with many pain
medications and most hi-amp devices, prolonged use requires
higher and higher doses of medications or increased time and
amounts of electricity to achieve the desired pain reduction
effect. With Electro-Acuscope/Myoscope treatments, sessions
of shorter and shorter duration produce more dramatic and
longer lasting effects, until treatment is no longer
required. By definition, this is called the "cumulative"
effect.
Please explain why the results from an Acuscope treatment
are cumulative.
Mild current stimulation, ideally at the level of 500uA
(micro-amps) or less, has been proven to cause the cells of
the body to increase production of the chemical ATP which
responsible for cellular energy production. It has also been
shown to increase protein synthesis, the building blocks of
tissue, which allows the cells to begin to repair
themselves. This low level of current is known to improve
certain cellular functions which pump ions (such as sodium,
calcium, potassium, etc.) into the cells, and to increase
the transport of waste products out of the cells thereby
assisting in the flushing of toxins out of the tissue. As
these chemical reactions build up with each treatment, the
tissue is able to repair itself more completely. The
"charge" on the tissue begins to hold and its ability to
generate its own normal energy is restored. In most cases of neuro-muscular pathology, a series of treatments leads to
permanent relief.
