In the world of natural health, Frequency Specific Microcurrent (FSM©) continues to make strides in providing non-invasive, effective treatments for a variety of conditions. While FSM© has proven its worth in alleviating pain and promoting healing for a wide range of ailments, recently we have had great success treating a rare condition called Meralgia Paresthetica. This condition is marked by nerve compression in the thigh that causes disturbing pain, burning sensations, or numbness. FSM© has played a key role in treatment for a Perth patient with this condition who reported complete resolution of her symptoms after 3 treatments.

What is Meralgia Paresthetica?

Meralgia Paresthetica is a condition caused by compression of the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve, which supplies sensation to the skin of the thigh. This nerve can become compressed due to factors such as prolonged standing, tight clothing, pregnancy, or weight gain, resulting in numbness, tingling, or burning pain in the outer thigh. It can be challenging to treat with conventional methods, but FSM© offers a promising, non-invasive alternative for relief.

FSM© and Meralgia Paresthetica - A Breakthrough Approach

FSM© provides a unique and effective treatment approach by targeting the nerve compression and associated inflammation that characterises Meralgia Paresthetica. Using specific electrical frequencies, FSM© helps reduce inflammation, relieve nerve pressure, and promote natural healing at the cellular level. Our patient who has undergone FSM© therapy for Meralgia Paresthetica has experienced reduced pain and discomfort, improved mobility, and an overall better quality of life—without the need for invasive procedures.

How FSM© Works in Treating Nerve-Related Conditions

FSM© operates on the understanding that every tissue and organ in the body resonates at a specific electrical frequency. When this frequency is disrupted by inflammation or injury, discomfort and dysfunction follow. FSM© works to restore balance by delivering low-level electrical currents that are tailored to the affected area, helping the body to self-correct and heal. For nerve-related conditions like Meralgia Paresthetica, FSM© helps reduce nerve sensitivity, restore normal function, and alleviate pain.

Conditions that Benefit from FSM©

While FSM© has shown incredible success with rare conditions like Meralgia Paresthetica, it’s also effective in treating a wide range of common health issues, particularly those involving pain and inflammation. Here are some other conditions FSM© assists with:


Fibromyalgia

FSM© can significantly reduce the widespread pain and fatigue associated with fibromyalgia by targeting both muscular and nerve-related issues.


Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS)

By stimulating tissue repair and reducing inflammation, FSM© has been known to offer relief to those battling persistent fatigue.


Neuropathic Pain

For individuals suffering from nerve pain, including peripheral neuropathy, FSM© helps in nerve regeneration and restoring sensation while alleviating pain.


Sports Injuries

Whether it’s a sprained ankle, muscle tear, or tendonitis, FSM© accelerates healing and helps athletes return to training faster by reducing swelling and pain.


Inflammation

Inflammatory conditions such as arthritis, tendonitis, or post-surgical swelling benefit greatly from FSM©, which helps regulate the body’s inflammatory response and speeds up recovery.


Digestive Disorders

FSM© has also shown promise in addressing gut-related issues like IBS and IBD by reducing inflammation in the digestive tract.

Personalised Treatment Plans at PNMC

At Perth Natural Medical Clinic, we create tailored treatment plans that consider each individual’s unique condition and needs. For patients with Meralgia Paresthetica or other nerve-related conditions, we carefully adjust the microcurrent frequencies and treatment duration to optimise results. Typically, FSM© treatments involve one-hour sessions over 3 weeks, although may require further sessions or another series after a period of time, depending on the severity of the condition.


FSM© is a non-invasive free option, free from negative side-effects for those looking to complement conventional treatments or explore alternative methods of healing. If you’ve been struggling with Meralgia Paresthetica or another chronic condition, FSM© may offer the relief you’ve been searching for.

Most people are aware that the skin is our body's largest organ and is our first line of defense against anything harmful in our environment. You may not know however that our skin is home to a complex and dynamic community of microorganisms that is referred to as the skin microbiome. This ecosystem plays a huge role in maintaining skin health, protecting against pathogens, and in our immune responses.
