Microcurrent therapy at ReviveMD Center in Richmond, VA is provided using the TAMA Blue Onyx Quadpro device.
The human body relies on the continuous flow of electromagnetic signals in order to function. Without electricity and magnetism – the realm in which the visible universe resides – life cannot be sustained. The nervous system can be likened to a complex electrical network with multitudes of inputs and outputs.Although there are differences between how the nerves transmit electricity versus copper wires used in electrical circuits, the basic premise is the same: a command is initiated from a central location (the brain), it is translated into an electrical signal travelling down the neural pathways (spinal cord), and it arrives at a destination to perform the desired task (e.g. contract a muscle).
Unlike man-made electrical circuits, the human body transmits signals utilizing both electrons and chemicals. Each electrical pathway has a number of junctions in which electrical current is translated into chemical transmission, and then back to electron transmission. As we age, neurochemical transmitters and receptors deteriorate and do not perform as efficiently. The consequences are both internal and external (organ functions are reduced, visible signs of aging become apparent, etc.)
Electricity also works at a different level within each individual cell. Ions such as Sodium, Potassium, Chlorine, and Calcium play a crucial role in keeping cells alive. The concentration of these ions inside and outside each cell results in an electric charge called “membrane potential,” referring to the voltage potential across the cell membrane. Each cell is essentially like a miniature battery that typically maintains 70 millivolts of electricity.
Blue Onyx Plus™ adds an additional port for the use of Electro-Magnetic Pads™ (EMP) and a set of Massage Pro™ conductive gloves to help deliver more concentrated treatments for trouble areas. You can now treat another area with pads or gloves, while using probes, to achieve a better lift and more contoured facial treatment.
Blue Onyx Quad Mode Quad Pro™ has all the exciting advantages of Blue Onyx Plus™, with a second EMP/Massage Pro port that offers the ability to perform hands-free treatments, achieving the ultimate facial in a fraction of the time. Additionally, Quad Mode offers the Blue Modality™: the only non-invasive product penetration, without compromising the dermal layer.
