I first heard about Frequency Specific Microcurrent during “The Body Electric Summit’ which took place in October/November 2019.

Work, email, picking up the kids, grocery shopping, cooking, organising a birthday gift, taking the kids to extracurricular activities, remembering appointments, more work. You feel frazzled. And although you’ve not had time to go to the doctor, you suspect you have irritable… read more ›
