00:00Hey, what's up?
00:06It's Radar hanging out with my friends at Precision Healing and Wellness in Brookfield
00:11just off the corner of Greenfield and Calhoun.
00:14Nova Gescheitmeier is here to tell everyone how you can get your body feeling right and
00:19we are actually in the room where acupuncture takes place, but also a couple of other new
00:25terms that some people might not be familiar with.
00:29Saluma and electro-stim?
00:31In our acupuncture rooms, we have extra therapies that we can use to help your body heal a little
00:37bit quicker and faster.
00:38We have a low-level laser light called a saluma and then we have an electro-stim unit which
00:45uses a little bit of current that we put on the needles to help pain management.
00:50How does saluma benefit with acupuncture?
00:54We use the saluma, which is a low-level laser light that uses red and blue wavelengths to
00:59trigger ATP production in the cells, which is energy that the cells need.
01:03What that does is help the body heal at a blood, tissue, and nerve level to help your
01:09body heal even quicker.
01:11What about electro-stim?
01:13How does that help enhance acupuncture?
01:17Acupuncture works to interrupt a pain cycle to help the body reset and lower the pain
01:22level.
01:23We use electro-stim, which is just a tiny bit of current on those needles to help facilitate
01:29the breakup of adhesions, knots, and even help push out any inflammation to allow for
01:35proper blood flow and healing into those tissues.
01:38Are these treatments safe for everyone?
01:40Yes.
01:41Almost everybody can handle the saluma or the electro-stim.
01:45The laser light is good for any skin type and pain issue.
01:50The electro-stim, we just have to make sure you don't have a pacemaker or even a broken
01:55bone because that wouldn't feel so hot.
01:57What should first-time patients know about these treatments before they get them?
02:01That they are painless.
02:02They're meant to be relaxing and allow the body to heal.
02:06And you also have some nice music playing in the background for that relaxation?
02:10Absolutely.
02:11And, really, we can customize the music in each room, but we try and make it as relaxing
02:16as possible for people.
02:17Nova, thanks for explaining everything about acupuncture, saluma, and the electro-stim.
02:24You bet.
02:25Thanks, Radar.
