Microcurrent Therapy

Dr. Paul M. Vassa at Vassa Chiropractic & Wellness uses microcurrent therapy to help patients who are healing from injuries to the soft tissue or dealing with chronic pain. The treatment resembles electrical stimulation therapy, because electrodes are placed onto the skin in affected areas.  However, this therapy is gentle and the microcurrent is so small patients don’t feel it.
A body’s natural electric current is disrupted when injury or disease occurs. The microcurrent used in this therapy works by simulating the electrical signals that occur naturally in a healthy body. This helps an injured body heal faster, and is also an effective way to decrease inflammation and relieve pain.  Microcurrent therapy is a great treatment for muscle spasms occurring in the back or neck. It works by gently relaxing the muscle and allowing it to return to its normal state.  This treatment is typically scheduled in short therapy sessions spread out over a course of weeks.
