Frequency Specific Microcurrent
What it is and what it is used for:

FSM can treat a many other problems and conditions and reduce pain patterns, inflammation and stress on any tissue or structure in the body. The creator of FSM (Frequency Specific Microcurrent), Dr. Carol McMakin has found that microcurrent works to remove the FACT of an impact (whether we are talking about emotional impact from emotionally or physically stressful events or physical impact to the body from falls or accidents) out of the specific tissues, such as fascia, that have a tendency to not correct themselves naturally.
Removing scar tissue literally allows the original tissue in the area to function normally and allows the postural dysfunction to correct itself and therefore you will have less pain with movement. Scar tissue is very restrictive and creates many problems and pain with the function of the musculature through the body the longer it stays in place.
Even once you have a disease or condition, FSM can be instrumental together with a good treatment plan for diet and any other treatments of a conventional or alternative nature, to improve the symptoms of the condition or eventually resolve it.


Owning an FSM unit
Certified practicing FSM practitioners are authorized to sell two types of home use units. You can also take the basic Core Seminar (www.frequencyspecific.com) and purchase your own unit through them because you will have been educated about the dos and don’t and know how to program it. Otherwise, you can still own a unit via a practitioner who can maintain it, program and reprogram it as necessary for your individual needs at home.
Owning a unit can be a tremendous asset for your home first aid kit, for acute cuts, injuries, burns and shock and trauma. The selling practitioner will teach you what protocols to use and for what types of home injuries that occur that are not severe enough for a doctor or ER visit, but still can cause pain and limitation in the long run of your life or your child’s. Getting the unit on an injured area even when medical attention will be necessary, as you are making the doctor’s office appointment or waiting at the ER for attention, will more rapidly heal, remove pain prevent the onset of chronic inflammation and return the area to it’s original pre-injury condition. Getting medical attention, unless you are in severe danger, can take hours or days. Owning a home unit and having an FSM practitioner on hand to help you use the correct protocol can be a great relief while waiting for medical attention.
Why prevent the onset of the Chronic Inflammatory process?
Laboratory research, via blood draws, has provided doctors with when chronic inflammation sets in and what that means for an injured area. At 4 hours post surgery or injury there are increased levels of inflammatory chemicals present in the bloodstream. These chemicals are designed to signal to the body to “shore up” the area surrounding it with inflammation to protect it and to send scar tissue, not new tissue to the area to heal it. If you recall, your finger or other injury will stay inflamed for days to weeks after an impact. This is why.
If you can prevent chronic inflammation by getting a unit on the injury/surgical site within 4 hours, you can reduce healing time AND have the area be healed with original tissue from stem cells, not scar tissue. This will reduce the long term, later-in-life restrictions that injuries all over our bodies through the life time, create. This provides you will better quality of life through out the life span because you will have better flexibility, mobility and therefore comfort.
How does a treatment feel?

Because the ATP is given during the treatment of the injury and it may give you a feeling of upliftment and extra energy, this feeling is not a signal to go do a heavy workout- or any workout– or over exert as the body needs this energy to continue healing the specific areas addressed in your treatment. You feel SO MUCH better after a treatment it is often difficult to make yourself continue to rest and continue to behave as if you are ill or injured without the added ATP.
The treatment to the specific area, provided you have not used up the ATP given by the current, is over in 48 hours. At that point you will notice what is left and still needs more treatment and you will notice how much things have healed beyond the original healing process usual for the body.
By the 2nd or 3rd treatment most clients report significant change in the treated area and sometimes in ancillary, subsidiary or complementary areas of the injured site.
This is because FSM provides you with the same amount of micro-current that is made by 1 cell in your body every moment.
One μA (micro) amp is 1 millionth of a household electrical service amp. You may think of FSM as a kind of homeopathic TENS unit that has hundreds more uses than pain control.
Side Effects

In rare cases, if there is more pain, such as developing a severe type of headache like a migraine, it means that there are some underlying issues that may be more of a pervasive nature requiring a more conscious look at the energy pattern. In these cases, I have seen that the strengthening or elevated vibration you receive with FSM, within the body tissues, will bring to the surface the deeper underlying issues that require a different type of healing to resolve the problem being treated. There are many options for dealing with this type of result and are discussed on a case by case basis.
In order to have lasting effects, it is most effective and profitable to receive between 3 and 6 treatments of FSM over a month’s time to treat and improve any one specific condition.
