Have you heard about the Healy or Frequency Specific Microcurrent Therapy?

[blogger_7]

I have recently acquired a Healy to see how I can benefit. I have documented improvement in my sleep in my blog post. I'd be willing to share additional information. silverliningsandparkinsons....

[Rhyothemis]

Can you explain how you use it? Where do you attach the electrodes?

I use a TENS/microcurrent unit. For autonomic dysfunction I use transauricular vagal nerve stimulation (TENS with ear clips). For skin rejuvenation I use microcurrent with wand probes.

My unit cost ~ $50, not including electrodes. So it is affordable but since it is DIY you have to figure out a lot of stuff for yourself and it is not without risks. I can see the advantage of something like Healy or NuCalm, but of course they are much more expensive.

Thank you Rhyothemis, for your comments and questions, The Healy comes with reusable press button adhesive electrodes and also wrist bands with electrodes and cords which plug into the Healy and snap onto the electrodes. When I select a program, on the Healy app which is installed onto my cell phone, it down loads and a screen appears showing me where to place the electrodes and allows me to increase or decrease the strength of the frequencies involved in the selected program, for my comfort.

After reading 'The Resonance Effect' I had written down which frequencies the author indicated were most beneficial for various healing effects. But I don't think I have an aptitude to figure it all out, The Healy takes out the guess work.

[Rhyothemis in reply to blogger_7]

I should read the book, I have not yet. I must admit I am skeptical about the effects of specific frequencies. I have read in peer-reviewed articles and confirmed with my own experience that lower frequencies allow for deeper tissue penetration. So, for example, if someone wanted to stimulate nerves in the colon , they would need to use a very low frequency. I try to use a higher frequency when treating my eye area for wrinkles since I don't want to stimulate the optic nerve; too low and I get 'phosphenes' - light flashes from direct nerve stimulation.

Unfortunately I think a lot of microcurrent device sellers and microcurrent therapy trainers would like to keep information obscure and hence they don't publish in peer reviewed journals.

“The book on Amazon you can buy right now is called Resonance Therapy by Carolyn McMakin. amazon.com/Resonance-Effect...

[blogger_7 in reply to blogger_7]

I purchased it on Kindle so I could begin reading right away. Hugs

[Rhyothemis in reply to blogger_7]

I'll probably get it at some point, but I'd prefer peer-reviewed research reports on experiments testing hypotheses developed from the theory.

I have reservations about the Healy. It is sold through an MLM multi level marketing scheme and so i think it is sensible to be cautious.

The Healy device was registered with the FDA on the basis of equivalence to an existing Omron device. In such cases, all that the "generic" co (Healy, in this case) has to show is equivalence. That is important - if it is equivalent, it must be worth considering the Omron device, which is a lot cheaper, although may not come with a list of frequencies. (in Caroline McMakin's book) omronhealthcare.com/product... If it is not equivalent to Omron, the application should not have been made on that basis.

Safety for electro stimulation devices was assessed against ECT – they don't cause seizures. There has been no evaluation of the risks to the blood / brain barrier and that may be a concern for people with Parkinson's. The Healy is intended to pass a current through the skull to the relevant part of the brain. I coudn't find a clear description of power levels last time I looked - the power claimed by Healy in their patent is wide.

I have a Healy and have read Carolyn McMakin's book The Resonance Effect. From my experience I would say stop wasting time and money and buy a Healy. It has been a game changer for my whole family, for all sorts of aliments from back pain, migraines, nerve damage from Neuropathy, arthritis, period pain, lethargy, hypothyroidism, sleep issues, vertigo ... I could go on. It really works from a cellular level to help your body heal itself. Also you should not judge it being distributed through an MLM structure either, because those who distribute it are those who have found relief and are healing themselves with it. PLUS Caroline McMakin (the author of The Resonance Effect is on the medical board of Healy. No co-incidence. She knows her stuff and has been at the forefront of helping get this device into the homes and and hands of those who need it. WHY? Read her book. She could not keep up with the demand for her big machine. She could only see a limited number of clients in a day. If you want to know more just ask me. I can answer your questions from a regular user and sharer with others, so I have lots of testimonials. Don't listen to those who have no experience with the Healy as they do not know what they do not know.

Have just received my Healy device, there is so much to learn! I have a dear friend with Parkinsons and I'm wondering what program can be ran to help her?

[Mrsfah in reply to DMY1]

What program/programs can I use for Parkinson’s diagnosis?

[Universe4good in reply to DMY1]

Hello, do you know if there's a forum that we can go to learn from Healy?I just got it and I'm excited with the results and eager to learn all I can so I can use it properly.

Also, can electrodes be used in the knee of a parkinson patient? She fell on the street 4 months ago and she's still having some pain there. I'm under the impression that electrodes shouldn't be used in parkinson patients at all.

Thanks in advance!

[blogger_7 in reply to Universe4good]

Hi Universe4good Perhaps the Healy might have an interaction if a PwP has dbs.But I have Parkinson's and use the Healy with no negative issues.

blogger_7,

What benefits do you derive from the Healy as far as PD symptoms? Also, what is the average length of each treatment?

[blogger_7 in reply to chartist]

Chartist, I am an all or nothing type of person. So when I start using my Healey, I run it for three or four hours, doing as many programs as I can... until the battery stops on the Healy or tablet. I use the Pain setting IV, acne for pulling out toxins, in Meridians 1. gall bladder, because I have stones, And in deep cycle, Kidney all female. Bioenergetic Balance 1 for my eyes. Every one has their own uniqe set of symptoms.

[chartist in reply to blogger_7]

Thank you for the information! The reason I asked is because I have a Scenar technology adjustable electrical frequency device that I rarely use because it is just too time consuming to fit my schedule so it sits parked most of the time.

[blogger_7 in reply to chartist]

I can relate... That is why I'm excited for a Mini-Curie to become available. It uses Scalar waves. They don't require us to be tethered to the microcurrent to gain benefit. And every one within I think they said 5 ft. can benefit from it at the same time. They say it helps with pain, sleep & three other things,.. I don't remember right now.

[134A in reply to DMY1]

have you had benefits with Your PD from using the Healy ?

[blogger_7 in reply to 134A]

Hi 134A , No, I couldn't say I could, but I didn't think I knew how to use it So I gave it to a friend who says she uses it, for pain relief But I have learned about Ascend Sciences ascendsciences.com/home/ And they have a device that they expext to have in production sometime in December, It will be able to do so much more than the Healy. They named it to honor Madame Currie, because she was the first to experiment with frequencies. They are naming the device the Currie

thanks Blogger

I just watched Dr. Eva Detko ‘s video presentation on the Healy . Although she doesn’t specifically mention PD, it sounds as though it should be beneficial for just about any disorder one can name. The people in the company’s testimonial page all appear to be young healthy and using it in a more recreational capacity. If it improved your sleep that much, it would be worth the money at any rate. Good for you!

[blogger_7 in reply to 134A]

Ascend Sciences have a nutritional Aloe product that is infused with frequencies. They say it turns on the genes at the cellular level, to bring a person/s health back to homeostasis. I have seen some improvement of my symptoms. check out my blog... the transparency page, silverliningsandparkinsons....

Have any improvement for Parkinson's disease by Healy? Please feedback, Thanks.
