What microcurrents and how they act on the human body

Microcurrents - a weak electrical impulse currents of low frequency that can have a stimulating effect on the fabric of the human body. Microcurrent therapy - is one of the techniques of electrotherapy, which is one of the main sections of physiotherapy.

Microcurrents can penetrate deep enough into the area of ​​the skin, subcutaneous tissue and muscles, stimulating them to action. Therefore the greatest distribution has received this kind of treatment in cosmetology. Furthermore, microcurrents have excellent analgesic effect, thus are used in various pain syndromes.

The mechanism of action is based on micro-currents that, penetrating deep into the tissue, they stimulate the metabolism Improves metabolism and losing weight without dieting   in the cells, improve blood circulation at the level of the smallest blood vessels (capillaries) and lymph flow are as relieves spasms of smooth muscles of the walls of capillaries and lymphatic vessels. Through dilated capillaries to the cells of tissue receives extra food and oxygen, which improves metabolism. As a result of improved education of elastin and collagen - the main elements of the skin defining its elasticity, wrinkles (lifting effect). Through advanced lymphatics skin is cleansed of toxins and metabolic products Metabolism: The basis of life of all living things   (lymphatic drainage effect) and literally comes to life in his eyes, removed the hidden edema, swelling around the eyes.

When acne Acne: facial trouble   improve blood circulation and lymph drainage promotes more rapid removal of inflammation, including inflammatory edema. Through advanced lymphatic vessels are removed from the site of inflammation infectious agents and their metabolic products as well as products of the inflammatory reaction - skin is cleansed, it becomes smoother and less exposed to infection.

Improved circulation in the muscle tissue contributes to tightening loose and flabby muscles. This property is used for micro-tightening and contouring of the body.

Microcurrent therapy can be performed at any age, it is perfect for preventing aging. Microcurrent treatment can be combined with common cosmetic procedures such as microdermabrasion, mesotherapy, oxygen therapy, massage and so on.
