Electro-optical tissue stimulator and method of use

摘要

An electro-optical tissue stimulator for administering therapy to a body is disclosed comprising a housing and an active tip. The electro-optical tissue stimulator includes a microcurrent electrostimulation therapy unit which delivers current through a first and a second electrode in the active tip. The electro-optical tissue stimulator also includes an optical radiation therapy unit which delivers optical radiation through a light output port in the active tip. The active tip is shaped for administering myofascial tissue release therapy. The device can administer microcurrent electrostimulation therapy, optical radiation therapy, and myofascial tissue release therapy to tissues of a body. A method of treating pain is disclosed which includes the steps of identifying a treatment area on a body to receive therapy, and contacting the treatment area with the active tip, wherein the treatment area receives microcurrent electrostimulation therapy, optical radiation therapy, and myofascial tissue release therapy.

1. A method of administering therapy to a body comprising:
identifying a treatment area of a body to receive therapy from an electro-optical tissue stimulator, wherein the electro-optical tissue stimulator comprises an active tip; determining a desired optical radiation output level of the electro-optical tissue stimulator; determining a desired electrical current output level of the electro-optical tissue stimulator; setting an optical radiation output level of the electro-optical tissue stimulator to the desired optical radiation output level; and administering myofascial tissue release therapy to the treatment area using the active tip, wherein the treatment area receives microcurrent electrostimulation therapy, optical radiation therapy, and myofascial tissue release therapy in response to administering myofascial tissue release therapy with the active tip.
