Model C5
$1499For experienced Micro-Pulse users, the model C5 is easy to use and offers several advanced features.
It has four coil outputs, so you can use it on up to 4 areas at the same time, but it costs less than four A9 systems. It has more than 2 dozen pre-set protocols, so you can choose the right protocol for your application: orthopedic injury or chronic pain, acute injury, head injury, brain/nerve function, or others.
Coils are not included with the Model C5, so you can choose what's right for your application. Please select your coils here.

Scientific Research/Papers: Reports from independent product testing laboratories and reprints of scientific papers are summarized below, with full text versions available upon request.
Many of our competitors believe it works too, because many of them use unlicensed copies of our older ICES technology in their products. (And ironically these products cost more than ours... kind of makes us wonder what you are paying for, certainly not science or engineering)

Technical
But, ICES - PEMF has been developed and optimized over the past 20 years to emit only 0.2% of the EMF energy of a typical PEMF system.
The energy required by ICES has been reduced by 99.8% without loss of biological effects.
This makes ICES much safer, lighter, smaller, and much lower cost.
TENS: this technology is common, inexpensive, and is technically simple, but it is very limited in effectiveness because it relies on electrical conduction through the skin. If surface electrodes are used then the skin barrier as well as the random conduction paths (shaped like lightning bolts) tend to isolate deep tissue injuries from effective TENS stimulation. For this reason TENS is often applied using hundreds or thousands of times the theoretical signal energy needed to communicate with the tissues, because most of the signal is lost before it reaches the intended target tissue or injury. This is why clinically the practice often involves "cranking the TENS unit up" to the point where the pain is unendurable, then dialing it back down just a bit. People usually report a temporary abatement of pain, but generally only for 20 minutes or less. Some scientists hypothesize that the reduced sensation of pain is simply because the patient is happy to be released from the very uncomfortable stimulation regime most often employed with TENS.
PEMF: Pulsed electro-magnetic fields, also known as PMF (pulsed magnetic fields) are a very common type of therapeutic device, but much less is known about how these devices work, and even if they work at all. There is not any widely accepted theory for how the pulsed magnetic fields actually interact with living cells and tissues. As a result, the internet is filled with wild speculation. In this information vacuum there are many persistent myths about PEMF. But clinicians who use PEMF state that it does work eventually if properly applied. It is often reported that it may take 6 to 9 months to see any benefit from PEMF.
ICES: Technically much more complex than TENS, ICES is based on Faraday Induction (or inductive coupling) between external coils and the electrically conductive spaces within living tissues and organs. Micro-Pulse ICES technology currently dominates this field with its advanced science, comprehensive IP, and product technology far superior to any competitor. ICES employs the use of Faraday Induction generated between paired Helmholtz coils to achieve very deep penetration into tissues. This is because the intermediate magnetic fields in the electromagnetic induction process are not thought to interact with tissues strongly, therefore they can penetrate tissues very deeply without loss of signal. This is unlike TENS where the electrical signals are mostly dissipated by skin resistance. Therefore ICES allows a much deeper and more uniform stimulation of tissues with much lower signal power, leading to much more efficient and safe product designs.
- The ICES Pulse Generator will last indefinitely if properly cared for.
- Lithium Polymer rechargeable batteries will last for many hundreds or thousands of recharges, depending on how well you care for them.
- The ICES Coil Accessories are a disposable item. They should last about a month with careful use. They should be tested often and replaced as necessary, like a tooth brush.
- Test them using the included ICES Coil Life Tester, also available as an accessory from our web page.
Applications
- Orthopedic injury, non-union bone fractures and non-healing micro-fractures.
- Refractory lesions of skin, tendon, ligament, bone & nerve.
- Treatment of complications associated with diabetes, especially ulcers.
- Acceleration of post-surgical recovery. Expect healing milestones approximately twice as fast as without ICES.
- Spinal injury and paralysis. All we have now is anecdotal data on this, but the results are astonishingly good.
- Incontinence: urinary and fecal. Our feedback from users indicates very high success rates when ICES is used.
- Neuropathy and deep tissue injury. Lots of user feedback, better than 80% success rate.
- Arthritis and joint injury. Lots of user feedback, better than 80% success rate.
- Chronic pain & inflammation. Independent laboratory testing conclusively shows potent anti-inflammatory effects of ICES.
- As an adjunct to stem cell therapy. Our original NASA data suggested this, clinical use confirms the benefits of ICES.
- As an adjunct to acupuncture & laser/photo therapy, nutrition, and many other treatment modalities.
- By reducing inflammation, ICES magnifies the benefits of almost every other treatment and therapy modality.
- In-patient and out-patient care
- Low system cost and portability allows affordable in-home use
- Low cost and easy user training allow placement by vet-techs and other assistants
- Effective treatment of otherwise intractable conditions vastly expands customer base
- Flexibility in treatment location allows small and/or mobile facilities to service many more customers
- One small veterinary practice can simultaneously treat many patients
The immediate and very potent reduction of inflammation in the treated areas has been demonstrated by independent lab tests. A summary of the independent lab testing is available on our web page in the ICES Tech brief. Full copies of lab test data and results are available to interested researchers, contact us at info@fluxhealth.co
Many chronic conditions, pain, and diseases of aging are linked to inflammatory action. Pathologic inflammation may be the common link between a wide range of apparently different disease conditions and injuries. ICES allows targeted, localized, and effective control of inflammation for extended periods of time.
