In the latest episode of the Frequency Specific Microcurrent podcast ( #219), Dr. Carol and Kim Pittis discuss how Frequency Specific Microcurrent (FSM) supports complex cases by combining hands-on treatment with creating a safe, private space for patients to share key emotional and historical details that guide frequency choices.
They cover using FSM to reduce PTSD-related brain inflammation by turning on the vagus, how repetition of pain-free movement builds confidence and rewires threat responses, and why clinicians may need longer sessions than a high-volume clinic model allows (with CustomCare rentals as a workaround).
Case examples include identifying psoas involvement in hip adhesive capsulitis, modifying a concussion/vagus program (e.g., longer 40/89 and 81/109), addressing post-COVID stroke effects including hippocampus-related trauma recall and pons-related spasticity/vision changes, calming fear after aggressive soft-tissue work, and prioritizing fear/worry before grief.
Q&A includes strategies for acute T12 compression fracture pain (consider marrow, nerve involvement, splinting muscles, RockTape/brace, trauma frequencies, vitamin D needs) and guidance on when to avoid or test “40” frequencies during active infection.
They note stress incontinence protocols were unreliable due to pelvic floor complexity and emphasize distinguishing inhibited vs weak muscles and listening closely to the patient’s story.
