What does the research say about FSM?
Here are a few of the many, many studies out there.
There have been research papers done by practitioners using FSM over time. New research is coming online more and more.
Chronic Back Pain, Fibromyalgia, Migrane, Depression"
'Observational Study to Assesses the Efficacy and Safety of Microcurrent Therapy with a Portable Device in Patients Suffering from Chronic Back Pain, Skeletal System Pain, Fibromyalgia, Migraine or Depression' (Peter Marmann 1 and Werner Wiatrek 2 - Med Devices (Auckl). 2023; 16: 261–280.), bring together several theories that have been proposed to explain how microcurrent therapy may exert its therapeutic effects on the organism.
This research is looking into proposed mechanism of function. Findings overview:
-
ATP Production: Microcurrent therapy may enhance the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) within the cells. ATP is the energy currency of the body, and increased ATP levels can promote cellular metabolism and facilitate tissue repair processes.
-
Cellular Communication and Signaling: Microcurrents applied to the body may stimulate cell-to-cell communication and enhance intercellular signaling. This can influence various physiological processes, including pain modulation, inflammation reduction and tissue regeneration.
-
Electrochemical Effects: The electrical currents delivered during microcurrent therapy can alter the electrochemical environment in the tissues. This can affect ion exchange, pH levels and cell membrane potential, leading to changes in cellular activity and function.
-
Blood Flow and Circulation: Microcurrent therapy has been suggested to enhance blood flow and microcirculation in the treated area. Improved circulation can promote the delivery of oxygen, nutrients and immune cells to the tissues, supporting healing and reducing inflammation.
-
Neurological Effects: Microcurrents may have direct effects on the nervous system, influencing nerve conduction, reducing pain signals and promoting neuromuscular function. This can be beneficial in pain management and muscle rehabilitation.
-
Modulation of Cellular Processes: Microcurrent therapy may modulate various cellular processes, such as protein synthesis, gene expression and enzymatic activity. These effects can contribute to tissue repair, regeneration and modulation of inflammatory responses.
They stipulate in this study that it is important to note that the exact mode of action may vary depending on the specific condition being treated and the parameters of the microcurrent therapy applied, such as frequency, waveform and intensity. Additionally, different mechanisms may work synergistically to produce the therapeutic effects observed in microcurrent therapy. Several microcurrent devices ... have successfully been used in clinical trials to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of microcurrent therapies for different indications:
-
Pain Management: Numerous studies have investigated the use of microcurrent therapy for pain management.18–57 Research has shown positive results in various conditions, such as fibromyalgia, osteoarthritis, skeletal system pain and postoperative pain.
-
Anxiety and Depression: Microcurrent therapy has been studied as a non-invasive treatment option for anxiety and depression. Clinical trials have demonstrated benefits in reducing symptoms and improving overall mood.
-
Insomnia and Sleep Disorders: Some research has explored the use of microcurrent therapy for sleep disorders and insomnia. Studies have shown improvements in sleep quality and duration.

Having a tool that can reach into the body with a gentle frequency which speaks a resonant language the body understands and responds to within seconds, is extremely inspiring. This enables practitioners to tailor treatment to the specific needs of what the client is presenting, to tune in to the causative layer, at which point the body's tissues and holding patterns seem to dissolve into a relaxed state of softness.
The time following the sessions is when the body appears to adapt and respond to the stimulus, as dysfunctional signally seems to correct itself, and healing appears to me, to become a more efficient process.
