Arc Microtherapy Units for pain management

4 Replies

In relation to alternative therapies has anyone tried the 'Arc Microtherapy Unit' and stopped their prescribed medication .

One testimony describes a man who has RA in his wrist who uses the device instead of MTX

Interesting?

I have one of these devices that I am about to start using on my horse who has Osteoarthritis. They were originally designed for horses to reduce pain and inflammation and are now used by many to keep their horses sound and pain free

Be interesting to see what they can do to help RA ..

we can live in hope 🤞🏼

I can't find any recent medical articles testing this device on humans.This (copied below) was on the website advertising it but I thought - "Reducing anxiety?" What about pain & inflammation?

"NHS England has approved the Alpha-Stim.

A UK research study about the Alpha-Stim has been published by Prof R. Morris at the NHS Improving Access to Psychological Interventions (IAPT) service.

In 2021 NICE accepted that the Alpha-Stim device is safe and can reduce anxiety but is waiting for one more research study."

It's the Arc machine I was referring to. I'm not sure what you are looking at.
