Electro-Acuscope/Myopulse Therapy System by EquinEssence
The Electro-Acuscope/Myopulse Therapy System has been referred to as "the best kept secret in equine therapy".

What Is Molly?

Molly Wells is the most active and most requested Equine Therapist and Equine Instructor in the world for the animal calibrated Electro-Acuscope/Myopulse Therapy System, and has been named the Top Ranked ATS Instructor annually since 2008. Molly Wells comes from an athletic background. She incorporated her athletic knowledge and experiences into her business, Equinessence, which started in 2002. Her goal in the equine athletic world was to optimize the level of performance, extend the career life of equine athletes, and allow those with career threatening conditions and injuries to recover and continue to compete. Currently, Molly is the most active and most requested Equine Therapist and Equine Instructor in the world for the animal calibrated Electro-Acuscope/Myopulse Therapy System. She currently owns and competes on two horses, Go Be Quick (Quickie) and DD Sunday Society (Sunday). Molly achieved one of her dreams in 2007 by earning her Wpra card (Women's Professional Rodeo Association) with Quickie. Both Quickie and Sunday are personal testaments of Molly's work, and the Electro-Acuscope/Myopulse Therapy System. They both have chronic conditions that are typically thought of to be career ending in the equine world however, that has not been the case with these two exceptional horses.
Is It True That Molly Was Able To Heal Her Two Champion Horses With 75% Faster Recovery Using The Electro-Acuscope/Myopulse Therapy System?
Yes...In 2009 her champion barrel racing horse, Quickie suffered a fractured coffin bone after falling during a run, and previous to that incident was also diagnosed with side bone (a chronic condition in both front feet). Molly quickly implemented her rehabilitation program and Quickie recovered 75% faster than the original prognosis.

In 2011 her horse champion barrel horse Sunday suffered a bone chip in his stifle during one of his runs. Through extensive diagnostics, he was diagnosed with OCD in both stifles (a degenerative condition that is irreversible). After surgically removing the chip the Veterinarian also found further damage to his meniscus. Along with outstanding veterinary care, Sunday underwent Molly's rehabilitation program. He was cleared for training in a fraction of the expected time and returned to barrel racing. The following season he was also diagnosed with ring bone (an arthritic condition of the pastern joints on the front end of the body). Now aware of his chronic conditions, Molly keeps him on a consistent treatment program and continues to compete on him. Sunday remains sound, strong, and healthy.

What Is The Electro-Acuscope/Myopulse Therapy System?

The Electro-Acuscope is a highly sophisticated electronic medical instrument which is designed to scan and treat many types of painful conditions. It is one of a class of electrical stimulators called Tens (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation). Tens means that the instrument uses electricity to reduce pain by stimulating the nervous system of the body without puncturing the skin in any way. The Myopulse, companion instrument to the Acuscope, gently stimulates the muscles, tendons and ligaments, reducing spasm and inflammation, and strengthens tissue that has been damaged by traumatic injury. Together they comprise the most technologically advanced and effective electronic physical therapy equipment available in health care today.

How Do These Instruments Work?

The Acuscope and Myopulse establish a two-way communication between their own circuitry and the electrical signals from the area of the patient's body being treated. Using biofeedback technology, they measure such things as tissue conductivity and cell capacitance (the capacity of cells to hold an electrical charge). Generally, tissue conductance is very low in an area of chronic pain and abnormally high in areas of inflammation. In order to correct abnormalities, the treatment introduces gentle currents in waveforms similar to the body's own electrical signals. The Acuscope is programmed to generate the current pulse which damaged nerve tissue requires in order to return to a normal, pain free state. The Myoscope sends corrective signals specific to muscle and other connective, contractile tissue so that the cells can begin the work of self-repair.

How Much Electricity Does The Acuscope or Myopulse Produce?

The amount of electricity generated by the instruments is measure in micro-amps (millionths of an amp), and extremely tiny amount of current that is equivalent to what the body produces naturally. It has been scientifically proven that this low level of current produces the most beneficial effect on the body's cells. Both instruments produce electrical signals in patterns similar to and compatible with that which is produced by the body's own normal, healthy cells, the level of energy which is constantly flowing through every living person and animal.

How Does The Electro-Acuscope Reduce Pain?

During treatment, the Acuscope introduces mild electrical current into the cells of the body in order to return the tissue to a normal level of electrical activity. While providing beneficial electrical current, the treatment causes the body to improve circulation, produce and more effectively utilize proteins and other nutrients required to cell metabolism and repair. In this way, the instrument assists the body in accelerating the natural self-healing processes. In addition, mild electrical current causes the body to generate chemicals called "endorphins", naturally occurring pain suppressors. The immediate pain relieving results, as well as the long term benefits of an Acuscope/Myopulse treatment, may therefore be considered an electro-chemical response occurring in the involved area at a cellular level.

How Long Does An Electro Acuscope Session Last?

The Electro-Acuscope/Myopulse Therapy System is able to optimize performance through preventative maintenance programs, provide pain management for chronic conditions, and accelerate the recovery rate for a wide range of injuries by a minimum of 50%. Sessions range from 15-45 minutes, and the number of treatments required is determined by the condition of the animal.

How Many Treatments Will My Horse Need?

The pain relief that follows each treatment of a given area will last longer and longer, and each successive treatment will require a shorter amount of time to be effective. The number of treatments required will depend on the severity and extent of the condition as well as the body's ability to heal itself. Age, general state of health, habits, and even state of mind may influence the length of time required for complete recovery. Somewhere between five and fifteen treatments is the normal average.

Can My Horse Become Resistant To This Therapy (as they can with drugs)?

Unlike other forms of pain relief, such as therapy with certain drugs or higher amperage electrical stimulators, the body does not build up a tolerance to Acuscope treatments. Both with many pain medications and most hi-amp devices, prolonged use requires higher and higher doses of medications or increased time and amounts of electricity to achieve the desired pain reduction effect. With Electro-Acuscope/Myopulse treatments, sessions of shorter and shorter duration produce more dramatic and longer lasting effects, until treatment is no longer required. By definition, this is called the "cumulative" effect.

What is the Electro-Acuscope/Myopulse Therapy System?

It is a non-invasive, two-instrument microcurrent therapy system comprised of two FDA-approved instruments first developed for human use in 1978 and applied to equine and canine patients for over 40 years. The Electro-Acuscope normalizes the electrical circuitry of the central and peripheral nervous systems, pinpointing areas of cellular dysfunction through auditory and numerical readouts, while the Electro-Myopulse uses sinusoidal waveforms to target soft and connective tissue such as muscles, tendons and ligaments. Together they aim for performance optimization, non-invasive pain management for chronic conditions, and an accelerated recovery from injury.

Who is Molly Wells and what makes EquinEssence different?

Molly Wells founded Equinessence® in 2002 and is the most active and credentialed Equine Therapist and Equine Instructor in the world for the Animal Calibrated Electro-Acuscope/Myopulse Therapy System. She has been named the ATS Top Ranked Instructor and an Authorized Dealer by Animal Therapy Systems annually since 2008. Her credentials span Certified Equine Body Worker (2002), ATS Certified Equine Acuscope Therapist (2003), Certified Equine Myofascial Release (2004), ATS Certified Equine Acuscope Instructor (2006), and Performance Enhancement, Corrective Exercise, Behavior Change and Certified Nutrition Coach specialties (2014-present). She holds a BA in Psychology with an Animal Behavior focus from the University of Nevada, Reno, and developed the P.R.O.11® sports medicine program.

How does microcurrent work, and why is "animal calibration" essential?
Microcurrent delivers current at one millionth of an ampere, matching the body's own natural electrical levels so cells recognize and respond to treatment efficiently; the system has demonstrated a minimum 50% accelerated recovery rate across a wide range of injuries. Because there is a 30-90% difference in cellular function between different breeds of animals alone, the animal-calibrated instruments use pre-programmed computer circuitry that internally adjusts output to each individual patient, rather than delivering the fixed output that risks overstimulation. This biofeedback design is what separates the Acuscope/Myopulse from generic devices.

How is this different from a Tens unit?

Unlike Tens units, which produce milliamperage current that simply blocks pain signals for temporary relief, the Electro-Acuscope/Myopulse generates only naturally occurring current levels the body can use. Rather than masking symptoms, treatments produce a cumulative, long-term healing effect on the tissue itself. That distinction is why the system has been called "the best kept secret in equine therapy."

Which horses and conditions benefit most?

The system addresses a wide range of neuromuscular and musculoskeletal conditions, including bowed tendons and check ligaments, stifle and back injuries, splints, ring bone, green osselets, navicular, joint inflammation and arthritis, muscle strains and spasms, edema, pinched nerves, nerve damage, laminitis/founder, and recovery from wounds and surgical scars. Equine athletes across racing, barrel racing, roping, cutting, reining, dressage, jumping, cross-country eventing, polo and endurance are reported to gain more propulsion, more power, increased strength and improved control throughout the body. Canine performance and rehabilitation cases are treated as well.
