Microcurrent therapy, also referred to as microcurrent neurofeedback, is a unique form of healing which uses technology to ease conditions like anxiety and depression. The individual administering the therapy uses small sensors to detect and then mirror the patient’s brainwaves to correct any imbalances. Here, the team from Alaska Alternative Medicine Clinic in Anchorage, AK, shares more about this revolutionary approach to wellness.

How Does Microcurrent Therapy Work?

When a therapist administers the treatment, the current creates a fluctuation in the patient’s brainwaves. This helps to release any patterns which may have become stuck, giving the nervous system the opportunity to self-regulate. Microcurrent therapy provides patients with the ability to heal from within, with a more stabilized, resilient nervous system. Also, the sensors’ innovative technology only impacts frozen brain patterns. Healthy brain patterns, on the other hand, are already resilient and can thus return to their normal configurations immediately after treatment.

What Does a Session Look Like?

This painless process is simple: patients sit still momentarily while the therapy is performed. The signals from the sensors perform the work, and an entire session may last anywhere from a half to a full hour. Many patients experience results within the first session, and for most, a total of 10 to 20 sessions yields significant improvement. For certain cognitive disorders, additional treatments may be recommended.

How Does Therapy Help?

For patients with psychological disorders, Lyme disease, migraines, addiction, and chronic pain or fatigue, this approach can facilitate effective healing without the side effects presented by pharmaceuticals. Specific psychological disorders effectively managed by this gentle form of therapy include Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), traumatic brain injury (TBI), anxiety, and depression, though there are many others. When patients reach a plateau in their conventional treatment methods and seek a new approach, they often experience tremendous benefits by trying microcurrent therapy.
