Research

In the literature the effects of MET (Microcurrent Electrical Therapy, the electrotherapy group where APS belongs to) are being studied many times.
In vitro and in vivo-studies have proven that application of this particular microcurrent a significance change occurs in the concentration of Adenosinetriphosphate (ATP), bèta-endorfines and leucine enkafaline (see research of Ngok Cheng a.o., Katholic University Leuven). These bodies natural substances are known for their painkilling effect, but the ATP also has its effect on the wound healing and the bone growth.
Different clinical studies in South Africa, Canada and New-Zealand show the significant positive effect of APS Therapy on the sensation of pain and the mobility of the treated persons.
This is a research done with 751 patients with disorders like osteoarthritis of the knee, osteoporoses of the lower vertibra, neurosurgical pain, chronic pain, different muscle sorenesses and slow healing wounds.

Research proves that 73% of the patients with osteoporoses experience a positive effect directly after the first treatment. After the second treatment is number has increased to even 83%. The group of patients that experience no effect more than two treatment is only 13%. This shows that APS Therapy has a positive effect on the patient in an early stage of the treatment.
