Abstract:

Introduction/Background: Frequency Specific Microcurrent (FSM) therapy is a transmission of mild electric currents through a special device for pain relief. It can be found in the use of the PrecisionCare Microcurrent Machine. Best explained in “The Resonance Effect” by Dr. Carolyn McMakin, FSM is proving to be a helpful addition to pain relief regimens. Case: A 57-year-old male patient was working on his 900-pound motorcycle when it fell on his left forearm. Due to the pain, he received Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment (OMT). Muscle energy was applied to the radial head, and Still technique to the wrist. Findings before treatment were a posterior radial head and carpal bones displaced toward the palm; these resolved thereafter. FSM was used over a 40-day period. The frequency on channel A was 124, representing “torn/broken.” The frequencies of 100, 77, 142 and 157 on channel B represent “ligament,” “connective tissue,” “fascia/muscle sheath” and “cartilage.” The frequencies on channel A were 40 and 284, for “inflammation” and “chronic inflammation.” The frequencies of channel B were the same as the aforementioned. At this same time, the patient began using a splint on his left elbow and wrist for 60 days. Results: Using the McGill Pain Questionnaire after the interventions of OMT, the patient noted pain being “aching” in the wrist; “hot” and “boring” in the elbow. After wrist and elbow splints, pain was “stabbing.” After FSM, it was “aching” and “hot”/”boring.” Discussion: Limited literature is published on FSM, and follow-up publications will help add clarity to the frequencies that are most suitable for different pathologies. A limitation of this study was that treatment modalities were used at overlapping times.
