Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Microcurrent is unique among electrical modalities in that it does not attempt to excite peripheral nerves. Instead, it is thought to work at the cellular level, helping to stimulate cellular energy production and promote healing. Unlike other electrical modalities such as TENS or NMES, microcurrent is typically sub-sensory and does not cause muscle contractions.
