What Programmes Does the Microcurrent Pain Management System Have?
The Microcurrent System features four different settings to address pain management. they are as follows:
- P1 (Acute Phase): Pain management for pain that has lasted less than 12 weeks - use daily for two weeks
- P2 (Chronic Phase): Pain management for pain that has lasted more than 12 weeks - use daily for one week
- P3 (Acute Phase): Tissue repair for injuries that have lasted less than 12 weeks - use daily for two weeks
- P4 (Chronic Phase): Tissue repair for injuries that have lasted more than 12 weeks - use daily for one week
What Is Microcurrent Therapy?
Microcurrent therapy is the process of using microcurrents to increase the production of the molecule ATP in the human body. Increasing the production of this molecule is proven to increase the rate of recovery and reduce the level of pain during that recovery. Arc4Health has been used by sports starts and ordinary people during periods of increased pain and injury.
What's the Science Behind Microcurrent Therapy?
Microcurrent therapy supports the body's naturally occurring bio-currents in order to boost the production of something called Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) within cells. ATP is the molecule that is behind the process of pain management and tissue repair. By sending microcurrents through the body, microcurrent therapy increases the production of ATP, therefore accelerating the body's own natural recovery.
Research has proven that by increasing the production of ATP you can help to accelerate injury recovery and bring pain relief.
Microcurrent Therapy vs TENS
Microcurrent therapy is very different to TENS in a number of ways. In fact, their only similarity is that they are both forms of electrotherapy. Microcurrent therapy uses a current that is 1,000 times lower, meaning you cannot feel the device when it is being used. TENS blocks pain, whereas microcurrent works to address the inflammation that causes the pain. This means that while TENS if better for instant pain-relief, microcurrent therapy aims to repair tissue, offering a more long term solution to chronic pain.
How Long Will It Take to Notice a Difference?
It can take a different length of time for each user to notice a difference in pain and recovery. Sometimes it will take just a few hours, and others a few days, but our advice is to not give up and keep using it for three hours per day. Remember, every single body is different, including yours, so the production of ATP depends entirely on you and your own recovery process.
How Long Do I Use Arc4Health For?
It's recommended that you use Arc4Health for up to three hours a day. That is per day, and there's no limit on how many days that you can use Arc4Health for. Should you want to wear the device for up to three weeks while recovering from a broken ankle, then you can.
How Do I Charge the Arc4Health Therapy Device?
Your Arc4Health is supplied with a charger. After roughly 30 hours of use, your device will start to run out of charge, at which point you can plug it in to the mains and wait until it has fully regained its charge. You can tell how much battery is left by taking note of the following information:
- When you turn your device on, it will flash green.
- The number of flashes correlates to the battery that you have left. They are as follows:
- 1 flash = 25%
- 2 flashes = 50%
- 3 flashes = 75%
- 4 flashes = 100%
Are There Any Side Effects While Using Arc4Health?
There have been no dangerous side effects associated with Arc4Health. Some users have reported feeling a higher level of thirst after excessive use. If this is the case for you, we would recommend that you stay well hydrated and drink plenty of water.
