Clinical Studies & Scientific Research 

Research conducted by Cheng (1982) has demonstrated that the application of microcurrent stimulation significantly enhances ATP production, increasing it by approximately 500%, while also elevating amino acid transport by 30-40%. Conversely, the use of milli-amperage, as seen in traditional TENS units frequently employed in sports, has been shown to either deplete ATP generation or render it undetectable, with amino acid uptake decreasing by 20-73% and protein synthesis being inhibited by up to 50%. Furthermore, studies indicate that devices utilizing higher voltage electrical stimulation can hinder the healing process, whereas those with lower amperage are beneficial in promoting healing.

This article explains how the combination of microcurrent therapy and exercise positively effects physically active individuals by:
1. An increase in ATP resynthesis
2. Intracellular calcium homeostasis is preserved;
3. An enhancement of lipolysis induced by exercise
4. Muscle protein synthesis is stimulated.
This article explains the difference between microcurrent(Electro Acuscope) and macro-current (TENS), along with the effects  that they have.
