Frequency Specific Microcurrent (FSM) is a type of low-level electrical current therapy that is claimed to have a range of therapeutic benefits. It is believed to work by applying specific frequencies of microcurrent to specific areas of the body to stimulate healing and reduce pain and inflammation.
Some potential benefits of learning FSM for practitioners may include:
Wide range of applications: FSM may be used to treat a wide range of conditions, including musculoskeletal injuries, neurological conditions, and chronic pain syndromes.
High patient satisfaction: Many patients report high levels of satisfaction with FSM treatment, which may lead to increased patient retention and referrals for practitioners.
Safe and well-tolerated: FSM is generally considered safe and well-tolerated, with few reported side effects.
Continuing education opportunities: FSM training programs and continuing education opportunities may be available for practitioners who are interested in learning more about this therapy.
This therapy has been found to be effective in reducing inflammation, stopping nerve pain, and melting adhesions and scar tissue.
Inflammation
Chronic inflammation can lead to a variety of health problems. FSM has been found to be effective in reducing inflammation by targeting specific frequencies that disrupt the inflammatory process. This can be especially beneficial for conditions such as arthritis, tendinitis, and bursitis.
Nerve Pain
FSM has been found to be effective in stopping nerve pain by targeting specific frequencies that disrupt the pain pathways in the body. This can be especially beneficial for conditions such as sciatica, peripheral neuropathy, and post-surgical pain.
Adhesions & Scar Tissue
Adhesions and scar tissue are common complications of injury, surgery, and disease. These conditions can lead to chronic pain, limited mobility, and other problems. FSM has been found to be effective in melting adhesions and scar tissue by targeting specific frequencies that disrupt the formation of these tissues. This can be especially beneficial for conditions such as fibromyalgia, chronic pain, and chronic fatigue syndrome.
FSM is administered by a trained practitioner using a small device that delivers the electrical currents to the targeted tissues. The treatment sessions are usually short, usually around 15-30 minutes, and may be repeated several times per week, depending on the condition being treated.

“My first Core was in 2004 in Long Beac, CA. I’ve taken many seminars over the ensuing years. The knowledgebase and contributions by practitioners from all over the world keep this modality growing. Every seminar teaches me something new and leaves me excited to think about new ways to help my patients. It’s an amazing healing tool and a wonderful community!”

“I absolutely love FSM. It’s completely changed my practice. I recommend it all the time to my acupuncture colleagues and to chiro’s and massage therapists. It’s so immediate and pairs well with acupuncture. Best thins I’ve added to practice- and I get to see miracles daily in my office.”
-Pam Kososki, LAc
My son had tourette’s syndrome in a mild form. He jerked his arm, shoulder or head many times a day, so much that he was in a lot of pain. He had a vocal tic only a few times a day. Our chiropractor gave him FSM twice a week for 2 years and recreated the circuits in his brain that were misfiring causing the tics. My son is now free of all tics and he no longer has a diagnosis of tourette’s. I’m so thankful for this therapy!
“Dr. McMakin has brought life to an alternative form of healing that may have lied dormant forever. Her determination and dedication are profound and infectious. She has been able to join many brilliant minds to her work and they in turn have been ignited and inspired by her work. I am proud to say I have joined up with the FSM team to hopefully one day add to the body of knowledge.”

In six days I witnessed an astounding array of practical work that not only proves the limitations of conventional practice and belief but further demonstrates the alternative in detail. This is a life game changer! Dr. Carolyn McMakin’s body of work should earn many gold stars in some hall of fame!”

When I was first looking into FSM someone steered me in the direction of a company selling China-made units. Obviously they were less expensive. I am glad I went with my intuition and hitched my wagon to Frequency Specific and Precision Distributing. There are instances where the phrase “you get what you pay for” rings true, and this is clearly one of them.
This is not a question..but a few comments. I am a retired PT (let my licenses go in 2017) and I have written 2 other times. I have read, viewed and listen to so much that you have put out (often twice)..and I just purchased the video (USB) Pain and injury Core module. I received that a day and a half ago. So far I have viewed the first half day. I knew everything from the 1st 90 minutes (introduction) but then Kim got into the musculoskeletal and pain and injury. It is beyond my wildest dreams wonderful! I am glad that I spent most of the last year reading/studying what was available to me before purchasing the core, as this has made what is being said by you all quite familiar and understandable. Carolyn and Kim, you are teaching beautifully! I was just so excited and happy with this that I had to send a compliment NOW!

“I practice in League City, TX just outside of Houston. I became excited about FSM when I heard Dr. McMakin speak for the Body Electric docuseries. I already owned a PEMF/Microcurrent device with Quantum biofeedback that had preprogrammed. I wanted it to be much more specific for my own needs but it was not possible. When I heard about FSM I felt like my prayers had been answered. I would recommend the FSM course to others because even though there is a learning curve, it was easy enough to learn a few basics to begin benefiting from it as well as helping others. In my practice, I see many people on prescription pain medication, anxiety, etc. This gave me another option to help those that are looking for answers to improve their quality of life in a nondrug way. I look forward to learning more and being apart of the FSM family!”

“I focus on sharing self-healing techniques from non-traditional sources with those in my local area of Lake Havasu City, Arizona. After reading both of Carolyn McMakin’s books I had to learn more and experience FSM for myself. I have used the RIFE frequencies in the past and noticed a real difference with the 2 channel frequency combinations and microcurrent. I experienced an improvement in stubborn muscle spasms issues in my right thigh that had not been resolved with extensive traditional PT. I was able to walk without the aid of a walker/cane for the first time in a year. I attended the Core in Feb 2020 and Carolyn asked what was wrong with my voice. I was diagnosed with Spasmodic Dysphonia in the early 1990s as a result of a viral infection. She demonstrated a combination of unique frequencies that resulted in an improvement in my speaking voice. A real surprise for me since I was told it was permanent. So I now tell all my family, friends, and energy medicine students about the value of FSM because I have experienced its value personally.”

In my P.T. practice I most often use FSM while also doing manual therapy–so it’s not always clear what contributes what to positive outcomes. However, often it is clear that FSM deserved most or all credit, and in no case (in 18+ years of use) has it been quite as clear as in this recent dramatic treatment—of a patient I haven’t met.
The sister (who’d benefitted from FSM in the past) of this 53-year-old man contacted me 13 days after he’d had a bleed in his brain to ask if FSM might help him. (It was a subarachnoid hemorrhage deep in the center–luckily from a vein, not an artery. Initial scans had shown “a lot” of blood and also slightly enlarged ventricles due to outlets being blocked by pressure from the excess blood.) He was stable now, out of the hospital, and body functions like moving, walking and talking–initially gone–were largely returning as blood was being reabsorbed. But he still had a constant, severe, 8/10 headache that narcotics scarcely touched, and he’d not been able to sleep for days.
I programmed a Custom Care to treat veins with “leaking”, “torn and broken”, “inflammation” and other basics, and combined “pressure” and the basics with frequencies for every tissue that had possibly been compressed –the three layers of spinal membranes and the midbrain especially, and other neighboring brain areas plus arteries, capillaries, nerves…. His sister got the unit to him that evening. He used it, felt “large” pain reduction, became drowsy and slept for three hours. When he awoke, pain was 3/10. He used it again, slept soundly through the night and after using it a few times the next day and with pain continuing to diminish, he went off all pain medication for good. He also felt stronger, walked naturally instead of shuffling, and his family noticed a much stronger voice. A week later he’d had no more pain (though still a slight feeling of pressure in his head), he felt 95% recovered and he gratefully continued to use it.

“I have practiced in the Berkeley area for 20 years. I can honestly say FSM has been an absolute game-changer for me! I can think about and treat things that felt impossible before, using FSM. This course changed my mind about using frequencies to treat completely! Because it works!”

“It was a wonderful and enjoyable course.
The explanations are simple and extraordinary and very useful!
Dr. McMakin you are AMAZING!”

“The online class was a perfect way to be able to take the CORE class for me. Convenient, in my home, and able to move around as I listened and participated. I missed networking but really appreciated the opportunity to take the class so conveniently.”

I am in a solo practice near Portland. I love FSM because it gives me the ability to help people much quicker and more holistically than with traditional PT alone.
I would recommend Dr. McMakin’s course for the depth of the material that is presented; and, of course, because the course is how you learn to use microcurrent as a Frequency Specific modality.
I also would like to express my appreciation of Carol. Not only for her good works and her generosity as a teacher but also because she is a living example of what she teaches. She has a wealth of cases and a command of scientific material. She has theater talent that makes her lectures fun and a sense of humor and humility that makes us all love her!”
