Electrotherapy: Combining Science with Nature

Progressive Medical understands that pain can be debilitating. We offer safe pain therapy alternatives to addictive drugs. One of the most advanced and beneficial treatments available in the world is Bioelectric Medicine.

Electricity is found naturally in all of us. Every vital function, down to a cellular level, operates according to “directions” that are generated in the brain and carried electrically along communication pathways to the rest of the body. When this communication is disturbed, the results are often exhibited through a variety of symptoms, including pain, digestive disorders, and a sluggish immune system. By mimicking certain electrical currents that occur in the body, bioelectric medicine can prompt the body to heal more efficiently and manage pain more efficiently.

What is Electrical Stimulation?

Bio Electrotherapy is the treatment of pain and suffering associated with disease and injury with the application of a comfortable electrical stimulation. Through electrotherapy, we can trigger these impulses by varying the frequency, wavelength, and location of the micro electrical impulses applied to the patient. This incredible form of electrical stimulation works through the nervous system to affect the entire body naturally and with no negative side effects.

A specific micro-current, resembling that which the body naturally produces, is introduced to the system. The body recognizes the current as its own and responds naturally by trying to normalize the problem. Electrotherapy is a safe, non-invasive, and effective way to return the body into a state of homeostasis (perfect balance) and comfort. No shock treatments or hair raising adventures here.

Conditions Successfully Treated with Electrotherapy:

• Arthritis
• Fibromyalgia
• Sciatica
• Shingles
• Headaches
• Gout
• Carpel Tunnel
• Stroke

Physical Therapists have consistently reported that in a month (or ten electrotherapy treatments), injured patients experience increase in strength and range of motion. Patients report that their pain diminishes greatly.

Bio Electrotherapy as part of Integrative Pain Therapy

Just like most aspects of health, pain is most effectively addressed when treatments like Electrical Stimulation are used as part of an integrative plan and a well-rounded, healthy lifestyle, which incorporates balanced nutrition, exercise and supplementation. After consultation, your doctor may suggest auxiliary treatments offered at Progressive Medical Center like acupuncture, chiropractic treatments, and detoxification. All of which are offered on-site, in our newly-renovated, 17,000 sq ft facility, just north of Atlanta.

Medical Diagnostics

Many medical conditions are not easily diagnosed by standard modalities. In order to find the root cause of your condition, we utilize various approved diagnostic tools that are safe and non-invasive. Most insurance companies require diagnostic procedures to justify treatment protocols.
