Frequency Specific Microcurrent (FSM) Therapy incorporates some of the most up-to-date research and techniques in injury and pain management, directly targeting individual tissues and cellular disturbances to repair damaged tissue and enhance bio-electrical activity.
Having worked in natural medicine for almost thirty years, PNMC's founder, Val Allen, initially found it strange having to rethink some hardened concepts regarding the body's healing responses when working with the new FSM equipment.
Science dictates that certain body parts require specific time frames for healing - a bone, tendon or ligament needs six weeks to mend if damaged. With FSM, this time can be reduced to four weeks, which is really surprising.
Excess scar tissue and fibroses causing conditions, such as carpel tunnel or frozen joint problems, can be corrected without surgery using FSM - usually in four one-hour treatments. Patients have reported that pain generally subsides within the first two treatment sessions, the restriction and numbness by the third, and normal joint movements return by the fourth (and in one patient case, the fifth) treatment sessions. Achieving this without surgery, time off from work and putting up with an immobile joint for another four weeks is truly remarkable.
FSM is best recognised for reducing pain and there are many patients who are finding that pain levels in chronic conditions such as lower back pain or sciatica are reduced by up to 80% with regular therapy.
Cysts, ganglion cysts, ovarian cysts(polycystic ovary syndrome) and lipomas are all conditions which respond, albeit slowly, to natural therapy. This is one area where FSM is shining and Val is absolutely 'blown away' by the success patients are experiencing.
One very pleasing but surprising area of benefit for patients is in FSM's ability to raise their immune system to 'knock out' specific viruses, including glandular fever, Herpes 1 and 2 and shingles. Normally this requires three one-hour sessions, however experience with FSM indicates that long-standing cases are needing one or two extra treatments to stop any flare-ups. The relief, both physically and emotionally for these patients is wonderful. We are finding however that patients above 80 years of age have a limited response to FSM treatment.
Val tells of the experience with one of her patients. A spectacular result occurred for a patient who had damaged an ankle and foot eighteen months ago. After many expert opinions, an inflexible foot which could not weight-bear without three different types of pain and advice that her best outcome would be from an ankle-foot fusion operation, FSM was tried as a last resort. Six sessions later we are delighted to report that all pain has gone, walking is possible with normal flexibility, and, with time and possibly a soft orthotic to maintain the foot alignment, surgery will be avoided. We are starting to believe in small miracles!
Val continues to supervise and write all programs for FSM whilst Lauren and Joanne are our regular FSM practitioners. There are dozens of applications for FSM, so if you have a problem which you feel may benefit from this treatment please phone or email Lauren or Joanne to discuss this.
Val has decided to christen the clinic's incredible FSM units (there are three available) :
'The Blue Heelers'!
FSM Therapy incorporates some of the most up-to-date research and techniques in injury and pain management, directly targeting individual tissues and cellular disturbances to repair damaged tissue and enhance bio-electrical activity.
These improvements to bio-electrical activity are considered the hallmarks of healthy cellular function and may assist in reducing symptoms of degenerative diseases associated with ageing. The powerful anabolic effect of FSM Therapy helps relieve pain, reduce muscle spasms and muscle loss, increase blood circulation to injury areas and maintain and/or increase the range of motion to injured areas. FSM has been successfully used by Health Professionals around the world to relieve the symptomatic pain associated with many conditions including sprains, muscular aches, spasms and cramps, mild neuralgia and sciatica.
FSM can help you recover from injuries faster and reduce the effect of acute and long-term pain. Val is in the process of training members of her staff to use the FSM unit under her supervision. She reports some amazing results in improvement of life quality with this breakthrough in injury and pain management.
Would you like to increase your skin's ability to produce collagen and elastin by a proven 42% ? This means your skin remains more youthful for many years. Our new FSM unit, under the skilled hands of Kylie, our qualified beauty therapist, can achieve and maintain this brilliant result using low-grade frequencies which target skin rejuvenation. Best results are achieved by the following programme:
Weeks 1, 2 & 3 - two x 45 minute treatment sessions
Weeks 4 & 5 - one x 45 minute treatment session Thereafter - one treatment session monthly to maintain the results.
Thereafter - One treatment session monthly to maintain the results.
For the past year, PNMC has been treating patients with the Frequency Specific Microcurrent (FSM) system. During this time we have observed the incredible difference this treatment has been making to the lives of our patients.
Frequency Specific Microcurrent treatment is generally used in pain management. Typically, it is marketed for use in that area only. We have found it to be extremely effective not only in pain management cases, but also across a wide range of other conditions.
Carpal tunnel syndrome is an area in which we have had consistent and repeated success. Of the patients with carpal tunnel syndrome that we have treated, all have experienced a reduction in wrist and arm pain within a few weeks of commencing treatment, and the majority have experienced a complete resolution of symptoms.
Of nine patients with herpes simplex, all have achieved a reduction in frequency and severity of outbreaks. Herpes simplex type one has been responding faster to the treatment than type two. Patients with cold sores have typically seen a cessation of outbreaks after three one hour sessions. More severe cases have seen a dramatic reduction in symptoms after three sessions, and a cessation of symptoms after five sessions.
We have treated many patients for old injuries which have only partially healed. We have had remarkable success with knees, ankles, feet, shoulders, backs and hips. Improvements include reduction in pain, increased ranges of movement, more strength in joints and reduction in swelling.
We have found that patients achieve results very quickly when using this type of treatment, with many patients making a full recovery in less than a month of treatment. Patients over 80 years of age have not had the same dramatic results as younger patients, but there have still been improvements in many cases.
Some other areas in which we have used the FSM with consistent success include chronic fatigue, female reproductive complaints, cysts and lipomas, heel spurs and of course, our facial rejuvenation packages have been achieving some wonderful results for patients (and practitioners!).
There are FSM frequencies available to treat a myriad of different conditions. If you would like to find out whether FSM treatment may be of benefit to you, call Joanne at PNMC on (08) 9328 9233, or email through your enquiry to admin@pnmc.com.au.
