Tools Used to Accelerate Healing

Frequency-Specific Microcurrent (FSM)
If you're looking for pain relief from musculoskeletal conditions in Christiansburg, Virginia, Frequency-Specific Microcurrent (FSM) therapy may be able to help. FSM is a treatment that targets pain and improves cellular functions, allowing your body to repair and heal itself.
At Balance Wellspace Integrative Medicine in Christiansburg, Virginia, our skilled team offers FSM as part of a comprehensive treatment plan for various conditions. This therapy uses a low-level electrical current, just one-millionth of an amp, to treat pain in specific areas of the body. FSM is effective at reducing inflammation, pain, and aiding in tissue repair. We use specific microcurrent frequencies depending on the tissue being treated to optimize healing.
Adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) is the principal molecule responsible for storing and transferring energy in cells. Known as the "energy currency" of the cell, ATP is vital for all cellular reactions and is also responsible for creating healing in damaged tissue. FSM treatments can increase ATP production by up to 500%, helping to alleviate pain and stiffness, and promoting faster tissue recovery for those in Christiansburg, Virginia.

FSM Treats a Variety of Conditions

Most often used to reduce nerve and muscle pain, Frequency-Specific Microcurrent is helpful for numerous health conditions, including:

  • Scar Tissue
  • Shingles
  • Burns
  • Spinal Disc Injuries
  • Fibromyalgia
  • Peripheral Neuropathy
  • Tendinopathy
  • Acute and Chronic Musculoskeletal Injuries
  • Osteoarthritis
  • Rheumatoid Arthritis
  • Bone Pain
  • Joint Pain
  • Plantar Fascitis
  • Sports Injuries
  • Headaches

Cutting-Edge Therapies to Accelerate Healing

Frequency-Specific Microcurrent (FSM)
FSM, a treatment offered at our facility, presents a straightforward and minimally invasive in-office procedure akin to a TENS unit. It involves the application of sensors to specific areas of your body, with microcurrent frequencies customized to match your condition and requirements.
The microcurrents serve to dull chemical pain signals to the brain, reduce inflammation, and bolster your cells with ATP. While undergoing the treatment, you might experience a gentle warming sensation in the affected area as the tissue responds.
FSM provides a noninvasive, nonsurgical, and nonpharmaceutical solution for individuals seeking a natural approach to healing and enduring pain relief. As an integral part of a comprehensive treatment plan, FSM significantly enhances your quality of life, enabling you to function with less pain and discomfort. Many individuals also turn to this technology for its potential anti-aging benefits, including increased circulation and enhanced collagen and elastin production.

Low-Level Light Therapy

Initially researched and developed by NASA, Low-Level Light Therapy, now FDA-approved, employs LED light pads that penetrate tissues by approximately 2-3 cm, leading to vasodilation (increased blood vessel circulation). This effect ultimately reduces inflammation, promotes nerve growth, and boosts nerve production. The therapy offers remarkable results without the use of medications or surgery.

Sanexas Horizontal Therapy

The neoGEN® system, a state-of-the-art medical device, harnesses electric cell signaling energy waves (EcST and ESI) for the treatment of various conditions, including circulatory issues, acute and chronic pain, and drug-resistant pain. Its specific parameter signaling aids in neuromuscular reeducation, muscle strengthening, and relaxation of muscle spasms.
The RST-Sanexas neoGEN® device has a distinguished reputation, supported by clinical research and numerous medical reports attesting to its effectiveness in alleviating nerve-related pain and symptoms associated with peripheral neuropathy.

Extracorporeal Pulsed Activation Therapy (EPAT) - Shockwave Therapy

EPAT represents a modern, non-invasive treatment approach, introducing high-energy sound waves to target painful areas of the body. This innovative technology accelerates the body's healing process by enhancing metabolism, boosting blood circulation, and regenerating damaged tissues. High-energy pulses generate micro-cavitation bubbles that expand and burst, effectively penetrating tissue to stimulate the cells responsible for bone and connective tissue healing. EPAT offers significant benefits, including addressing nerve conditions, tissue damage, and promoting healing while reducing inflammation.
Pulsed Electromagnetic Field (PEMF)
PEMF technology influences various types of human tissue, including muscles, ligaments, bones, cartilage, nerves, and blood cells, by generating a low-frequency, low-intensity electromagnetic field applied to the body through coils or mats. The magnetic field creates microcurrents within the tissue, fostering both localized and overall improvement.
Research on PEMF demonstrates its efficacy in stimulating cells electrically, magnetically, chemically, and physically, with no reported adverse reactions. It accelerates the healing process, potentially preventing chronic conditions and related disabilities. PEMF is FDA-approved for a variety of applications, including bone regeneration, arthritis, pain management, and more.

Benefits of PEMF Therapy

Some of the most common benefits of PEMF include:

  1. Helps you recover from an injury faster by accelerating cell growth and repair.
  2. Reduces pain and inflammation and promotes nerve regeneration.
  3. Reduces swelling, relaxes muscles, decreases nerve irritability, stimulates tissue healing, and strengthens bones.
  4. Increases cellular membrane permeability which allows for improved circulation of oxygen and allowing nutrients into the cell.
  5. Facilitates the removal of waste products out of the cell.
  6. Enhances cellular metabolism and communication.
  7. Increases energy to cells, cell hydration, bone density, flexibility, and range of motion.
  8. Stimulates the release of endorphins.
  9. Decreases stress.
  10. Enhances antioxidation regulation by increasing circulation of available electrons.

Pulsed Electromagnetic Field (PEMF) therapy can be beneficial for various conditions, including:

  1. Sports Injuries
  2. Chronic Inflammation
  3. Body Aches or Pain
  4. Stiff Neck and Shoulders
  5. Back and Joint Problems
  6. Low Bone Density
  7. Repetitive Use Injuries
  8. Rheumatoid Arthritis
  9. Osteoarthritis
  10. Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
  11. Lack of Circulation
  12. Fibromyalgia

BrainTap - Stress Relief Therapy (SRT)

BrainTap's proprietary neuro-algorithm is designed to enhance brain fitness and create balanced brainwave states. It helps stimulate the production of necessary neurotransmitters, promoting optimal body and mind function. BrainTap is a user-friendly tool that combines meditation-like effects with gentle sound and light therapy, leading to improved mental clarity, intuition, behavior, and sleep quality. It helps reduce stress, irritability, and worry while supporting emotional stability and mental harmony. BrainTap's technology provides the benefits of meditation without requiring disciplined effort and maximizes neuroplasticity for a more flexible and resilient brain.

How BrainTap Works:

BrainTap impacts brain function by entraining specific patterns and rhythms within the brain. During sessions, lights and tones with varying frequencies lead the brain into a "twilight state" that encourages relaxation and centering. This rhythmic entrainment creates a calmer mood, raising levels of serotonin, norepinephrine, beta-endorphins, and blood flow in the brain.

Benefits and Suitable Candidates:

Anyone experiencing stress or seeking meditation benefits can benefit from BrainTap therapy. The technology is suitable for those who are not sensitive to flashing lights. The guided visualization sessions enhance focus, although individuals with light-induced seizures should avoid the flashing lights while still benefiting from the audio-guided relaxation.

Benefits of Using the BrainTap Headset:

The BrainTap headset promotes deep relaxation, stress reduction, behavior change, better sleep quality, improved memory, enhanced concentration, stronger recall, and increased physical energy. While individual results may vary, BrainTap can enhance brain function and overall well-being.

Ionic Foot Bath

The ionic foot bath uses bioenergetic technology to create an energy field similar to the human body. It involves a foot soak using water charged with positive and negative ions (electrolytes) to drive energy into the body while drawing out toxins through ion exchange between the positive and negative ions.
The IonCleanse by AMD is a unique detox system that aids the body in eliminating toxins through channels different from its normal elimination pathways.

Why Use an Ionic Foot Bath?

In today's world, we encounter unprecedented levels of environmental toxins. Periodic cleansing is essential for maintaining health, especially when combined with a low-stress lifestyle. The IonCleanse system efficiently supports long-term wellness and energy maintenance by assisting the body in releasing accumulated toxicity. It addresses the challenge of eliminating toxins that external cleaning cannot reach, such as those from food additives, fertilizers, contaminated water, and pollution, which may overwhelm the body's natural cleansing mechanisms, playing a pivotal role in long-term health.

The Benefits of an Ionic Foot bath:

  1. Improves the body's lymph circulation 
  2. Increases natural energy levels
  3. May help relieve headaches, migraines, muscle pain, joint pain, and swelling
  4. Improve quality of sleep and relaxation
  5. Can assist weight loss

Who Should Not Use IonCleanse ®

Any person falling into one or more of these categories should NOT

use the IonCleanse®:

  • Those with pacemakers, or any other battery operated or electrical implant.
  • Pregnant or nursing women.
  • Those on heartbeat regulating medication and/or blood thinners.
  • Organ transplant recipients.
  • Those on medication, the absence of which would cause mental or physical impairment, such as psychotic episodes, seizures, etc.

This place is amazing. Normally you have to go to many different places to receive a regiment of care for a injury, NOT here. You have a team of people who coordinate your care. There is no lag time while waiting for one office to send over recommended treatment to another. The Chiropractor walks to the next room and speaks with the Provider or PA-C for regenerative injections, or vice-versa, to make sure your getting the best treatment as your condition changes. Everyone here is very friendly and caring. I recommend anyone suffering from back pain, neck pain, or needing physical rehabilitation to check out Balance Wellspace.
