Electro-Acupuncture Medicine
Electro-Acupuncture Medicine is a modality that can help to eliminate pain and is also helpful for many internal conditions
Why Use Electro-Acupuncture Medicine
Electro-Acupuncture Medicine is a form of health care that is rooted in traditional Eastern medical concepts and freely blends the usage of electricity to modulate the production and release of all-natural super powerful neuropeptides and neurotransmitters. It is a field of potential diagnostic and treatment techniques which uses acupuncture and electricity to modulate, enhance or trigger the human body to produce and secrete medicinal molecules or to regulate physiology.
Electro-acupuncture uses electrons which are the lightest stable subatomic particle known. They are also known as antioxidants. A lack of electrons is a precursor to reduced blood, fluid, and neurological flow. This lack of flowing in our bodies can create a myriad of other issues to follow. It sets the body up for incomplete chemical balancing, diseased tissues and much more. Electrons or antioxidants link with free radicals, which in turn neutralizes any harmful potential damaging effects of free radicals. For a deeper understanding see our blog post:
