Microcurrent Therapy
There are lots of developments in the field of Microcurrent Therapy, and I am trying to review the basic state of the art, wade through the literature and get a summary up here just as soon as I can.
Leon Poltawski (researcher) and I have done a review of some of the microcurrent literature :
Poltawski, L. and Watson, T. (2009) Bioelectricity and microcurrent therapy for tissue healing - a narrative review. Physical Therapy Reviews 14(2);104-114
In the meantime, the following links might provide some useful information. They are not adverts, and I am not promoting the material / machines on these sites - just links. There are hundreds of commercial links out there. I have tried (as far as I can) to provide informative links rather than sales pitches.
