Microcurrent Therapy: Dog Pain Relief Solutions

By Dana Bookman

I have an energetic Lhasa apso named Corky. Corky eventually became a champion in the agility ring. Running through the tunnels was one of his favourite activities. He lives for our training sessions and competitions. Corky was given to me as a gift on my sixtieth birthday. Corky won't stay put in one place, he was running around like crazy and even destroyed stuff in the house and ate our food. It was frustrating and I didn't know what to do. One day, I told myself that I should check out the internet for some answers. I learned that hyperactive dogs like mine are sometimes the best athletes and the good thing I stumbled a training center for agility dogs. I noticed that Corky was tamer and he really mellowed down after several training sessions.

Many years later Corky was getting older and slowing down a bit. His movement became stiff and he was frequently off balanced. I told myself that maybe it was time to retire him. He hated his retirement. Corky, then, became anxious and depressed. So there I was in front of the computer, looking for answers to Corky's problems. Midwest Microcurrent, a center I found on the net, helps pets to resume balance in their bodies. This place is amazing.

After thorough evaluation, the staff at the Midwest Microcurrent diagnosed Corky with arthritis and depression. I got all excited when I was advised that I could do the Alpha-Stim sessions at home. By purchasing the Alpha-Stim machine, I don't have to bring him to Midwest Microcurrent every single day. Im so happy that Midwest Microcurrent has helped me in bringing back the old Corky. Dog anxiety and canine depression are main causes of canine health deterioration.

Dog cranial electrotherapy stimulation or CES is included in Corky's therapy. This relieved the anxiety, depression and pain in one session by using a proprietary waveform which is clipped to the ear.

Alpha-Stim Stress Control System uses tiny electrical impulses to simulate the impulses found naturally in the body. The electrodes placed on Corky's hips relieved his arthritis pain. Using physical rehabilitation we were able to achieve dog pain relief. We even used an underwater treadmill to encourage Corky to reach his previous state of fitness. Corky was always very relaxed and would sleep soundly when we got home, after one of the Alpha-Stim sessions. - 29953
