Excerpt from a YouTube video where a clinician (SPEAKER A) explains that FDA rules limit claims to pain treatment, but anecdotally they observe microcurrent therapy helps balance the nervous system, encourages movement, relieves some constipation cases, complements acupuncture, and may aid fertility by increasing circulation to ovaries and uterus.

From the FDA perspective, you can only say that you are using it to treat pain. I will say anecdotally, I've noticed that it seems to help balance the nervous system for people, and it seems to help just encourage movement in general in the body. I've had some constipation cases that have responded really well to it. It just seems to work well for people that are sensitive, and I'm using it to essentially complement what I'm already doing with the acupuncture treatment. I've used it with some fertility cases. Interestingly, the thought being if it's good for pain, it's probably working to increase circulation. So we know from Western medicine that to get pregnant you need good blood flow to the ovaries and the uterus. So we've employed it there some too.
