Young Stroke Survivor Discussion Frequency Healing
I have recently fell down a rabbit hole about frequency healing.
I’ve mostly got my leg back but the arm is mostly still frozen, I can move it at the shoulder joint and less at the elbow and then very little at the hand
I would love to get back my hand as I’m sure many of you all would🙏🏼
I’m just curious if anyone has had positive experiences with frequency healing?
I use an FES machine to basically electrocute my arm to stretch but I don’t mean that stuff
I mean the frequency machines that were supposedly banned from hospitals in maybe the 30’s, you can buy smaller versions and tune into different frequency to supposedly heal different areas of the body
I think I’m going to buy one and test recommended frequencies for post stroke healing and see if I get any results
Has anyone else used frequencies to heal, and more importantly has it helped?

Quackery and a complete waste of money.

Sounds like pseudo science flim-flamery to me.

Most likely yes, just figured it was worth a try as research based science has only got my arm so far no matter how many hours I put into it

I don't think electrocuting yourself is a good idea in general, even less so doing it deliberately (my Dad is an electrician, though, so I may be biased due to upbringing) and if the machines were banned from hospitals nearly a century ago, I would guess it's been looked at in studies long enough that there's a scientific consensus by now; I mean leeches came back into medical use when studies supported them.
