A Simpler Protocol Targeting the Feet
Bio-electrode Therapy has continued to evolve with recent research and clinical insights. The protocols on this page show particular promise.
In a Nutshell:
When electrodes are placed closely together, the electrical resistance between them is reduced. This reduction in resistance generates a stronger and more dense electrical field. This phenomenon is often referred to as "concentration of electric field lines" or "concentration of electric potential." Securing two electrodes closely together on acupuncture points of a meridian generates a stronger electrical field flowing through the paired meridians, resulting in an enhanced therapeutic effect.
