Welcome to Equanimity Animal Therapy
Equanimity Animal Therapy is proud to offer Electro-Acuscope & Myopulse Therapy services in addition to equine massage services. While equine massage is widely well-known, Acuscope therapy is less understood but easily one of the most beneficial modalities. The Acuscope and Myopulse are the most advanced technology available on the market today and has proven its worth in the animal industry for over 40 years now. The Electro-Acuscope and Myopulse Therapy System is one of the only animal calibrated medical grade instruments that also have biofeedback capabilities, it is able to provide auditory and numerical feedback to signify where tissue is damaged and unhealthy. It was important to the mission of Equanimity Animal Therapy to provide an FDA approved and scientifically proven therapeutic resource. The Electro-Acuscope & Myopulse Therapy system is referred to as “the best kept secret in equine therapy,” but Equanimity Animal Therapy wants to make this “secret” well-known.
Equanimity definition: It is the ground for wisdom and freedom and the protector of compassion and love.
Why utilize Acuscope Therapy?
1. For animals that are injured, the Acuscope & Myopulse Therapy System is FDA approved to accelerate healing by 50% or more. This means if you get a diagnosis from your veterinarian that your horse or dog is going to require a 6 month rehab, by introducing Acuscope Therapy into your rehabilitation program you can reduce that rehab time to 3 months or less.
2. For animals with chronic conditions, the Acuscope & Myopulse Therapy System offers pain management and can slow the progression of the condition itself.
3. For horses that are competing extensively, they are predisposed to overuse injuries, by utilizing Acuscope Therapy as a preventative maintenance measure you are being proactive in ensuring your equine athlete is feeling their best to lower the chances of injury and keep them performing optimally.
What is the Electro-Acuscope & Myopulse Therapy System?
The Electro-Acuscope and Electro-Myopulse are unique, sophisticated, FDA approved instruments that interface micro-current with living bio-electricity. The technology incorporates biofeedback monitoring and computer-chip circuitry programming. Reading impedance and resistance (the capacity of tissue to conduct signals) and its ability to "hold a charge," the biofeedback enables the computer program to calculate the corrective output (waveforms and frequencies). It can locate areas where the electrical patterns are abnormal (too high with acute inflammation, or too low where there is a depletion of energy) and introduces the appropriate amount of low level electrical current into the cells. Treatment continues until a state of normal, healthy, undisrupted conductivity is restored. When this happens the healing process is accelerated, pain disappears, and normal range of motions returns. This technology offers the opportunity to assist the body in its innate ability to self-repair.
