Acupuncture without Needles- MPS Pain Therapy
MPS or Microcurrent Stimulation Point Therapy is grounded on the principles of western neurology, structural realignment and acupuncture. MPS integrates cellular changing microcurrent (MPS), with acupuncture theories and modern nem’Ology for a scientifically documented 75-80% improvement in pain relief & functional outcomes.
MPS is the perfect adjunctive modality for our Cranial Structural Bodywork therapy. Apply prior to treatment for significantly accelerated patient healing & functional outcomes. As a standalone modality or adjunctively combined with other therapies, MPS is difficult to beat using conventional modalities for pain relief. Several recent studies prove the superiority of MPS therapy for chronic pain.
What is Acupuncture and how can it Help?
Acupuncture is a therapeutic technique and part of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). Acupuncture has clinical efficacy on various autonomic nerve-related disorders, such as cardiovascular diseases, epilepsy, anxiety, nervousness, and circadian rhythm disorders. An increasing number of studies have demonstrated that acupuncture can control and balance autonomic nerve system {ANS) functions including blood pressure, pupil size, skin conductance, skin temperature, muscle sympathetic nerve activities, heart rate and/or pulse rate, and heart rate variability.
Emerging evidence indicates that acupuncture treatment not only activates distinct brain regions in different kinds of diseases caused by imbalance between the sympathetic and parasympathetic activities, but also modulates adaptive neurotransmitters in related brain regions to assist autonomic balance. In summary, Acupuncture can release endorphins, improve circulation to the brain and improve mood swings. All huge benefits.
Reducing Chronic & Acute Pain
Research has proven Microcurrent applied via EA can gently calm the nervous system, release endorphins, and causes bio-electrical changes at cellular levels. Acupuncture points can further de-regulate the nervous systems through specific point selection during application. Combining these two approaches can unleash two therapeutic giants, thus permitting me as a therapist to easily manipulate the autonomic nervous system with both microcurrent and traditional acupuncture principles, for increased outcomes with my patients. This multipronged effect on the body’s nervous, muscle, & endocrine systems is the reason why Sensory Balancing Therapy (SBT) can work so fast and effectively.
How It Works!
Microcurrent therapy applies extremely small microcurrent (less than 1 ma- millions of an amp) electrical impulse to the body. Microcurrent has been clinically proven to closely approximate the bio-cellular potential of the human body. The theory behind microcurrent therapy is that by introducing micro impulses into the body it restores cellular balance of positive-negative electrons, positively influencing the autonomic nervous system accelerating our bodies own healing mechanisms.
When injured cells become electrically imbalanced, the application of microcurrent helps return the damaged cells to a normal bio-electrical state, re-initiating cellular activity. Research has shown that microcurrent impulses enhance three variables critical to healing: ATP (adenosine triphosphate), Protein synthesis, and Cellular Membrane transport. These 3 key healing variables are only released in a parasympathetic state, strongly suggesting microcurrent can help re-balance the autonomic nervous system.
