  • What is the Dolphin Neurostim and how does it work?

    The Dolphin Neurostim is a handheld device that delivers microcurrent point stimulation (MPS) to specific acupuncture and trigger points on the body. It integrates Western neurological principles with Eastern acupuncture techniques to alleviate pain, reduce stress, and promote healing. The device applies low-frequency DC microcurrents to targeted areas, which can help repolarize scar tissue, stimulate the vagus nerve, and balance the autonomic nervous system. This makes it an effective tool for addressing both physical and emotional wellness concerns.
