The ARP specializes in preventing joint replacement surgery, athletic injuries,
helping neurological disease patients increase their quality of life and helping
chronic pain patients.
WHAT EXACTLY HAPPENS DURING AN ARP TREATMENT?
As
the ARP current passes over the unhealthy tissue that is
hypersensitive due to substance P, which causes the pain receptors
to fire. The body goes into its protective pattern which we see as a
muscle spasm. The spots found by the ARP triggers the problematic
movement compensation. We then
break free from the patient's problematic compensation pattern by
having them create a new movement pattern by going through different
ranges of motion which restores proper function to the muscles.
STILL CONFUSED?
It is
hard to understand how the ARP loosens muscles and causes the
contraction of the muscle all at the same time, but keep in mind
that the ARP loosens, and the patient contracts their muscles
because of the compensation pattern. After
the patient goes through 5 movements, they break the compensation
pattern. The patient relaxes, the muscle lengthens and then they can
move freely with no pain. We
then must take the patient to the next level by turning up
the intensity to cause the same reaction. Breaking this reflex
compensation pattern is key to healing quickly. The pain is not
caused by the ARP, but by the muscle contraction of the person.
WHAT MAKES THE ARP DIFFERENT?
The ARP
has two waves coupled together and that is what makes it so
different from other electric devices. Most other electrical devices
have an electrical current that is alternating current (AC). This
device has a current that is direct current (DC). The DC current is
harmonious to the body. Being that it actually allows the muscle to
relax and lengthen, while all other current causes muscle
contraction.
With an
injury, a muscle will contract for the protection of the damaged
tissue, resulting in increased pain, loss of range of movement and
the formation of complex reflex protection mechanisms. Allowing the
muscle to relax, is the key to allowing immediate increased range of
motion for better blood flow, inhibition of pain, and reduction of
the compensation pattern.
The
other valuable point of this machine is the other frequency
involved. The second wave is called a background wave. This wave can
be thought of as biological, while the active wave in neurological.
The biological wave is a double exponential microcurrent wave.
Meaning that two waves are combining to cause a highly variable
wave. This frequency wave can interact with all tissues of the body
at the same time. All other microcurrent is frequency specific,
meaning they dial in the frequency for the tissue they want to
affect healing on. We can affect all tissues at the same time.
By
disrupting the bonds of the non-harmonious tissue/scar tissue, we
can remove the scar tissue. We are also able to make the tissue more
permeable. This means increased blood flow where it was not possible
before due to scar tissue and muscle contraction.

SUMMARY:
In
summary, we relax the muscle, break down the scar tissue, and
promote healthy blood flow to the area. This is why we get
accelerated healing of tissues.
