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 Makes Molly Different?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.

Currently, 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. Please contact Molly today (phone, email, website) whichever is most convenient and let Molly show you how Electro- Acuscope Therapy can change your future with horses today!  What is the Electro-Acuscope/Myopulse Therapy System?The system Molly Wells uses through Equinessence pairs two FDA-approved instruments that deliver microcurrent — current equivalent to roughly one millionth of an ampere, the same level the body produces naturally. The Electro-Acuscope normalizes the electrical circuitry running through the Central and Peripheral Nervous Systems, while the Electro-Myopulse uses a sinusoidal waveform to target soft and connective tissue directly. Both instruments read the tissue and adjust their output through pre-programmed biofeedback circuitry, so the device responds to the animal in real time rather than applying a fixed dose. Equinessence runs the Animal Calibrated versions, exclusive to Animal Therapy Systems (ATS), which account for the 30–90% difference in cellular function between animal breeds. Molly Wells owns and operates Equinessence®, which she founded in 2002, and has been named the Top Ranked Instructor and Authorized Dealer by Animal Therapy Systems every year since 2008. She came up as a competitive athlete — an All-American swimmer who maintained Ncaa Division 1 swimming while earning a psychology degree (animal behavior focus) from the University of Nevada, Reno, before moving into barrel racing and earning her Wpra card in 2007. Her credential stack runs deep: ATS Certified Equine Acuscope Therapist and Instructor, ATS Certified Canine Therapist and Instructor, Certified Equine Body Worker and Myofascial Release practitioner through Equinology, plus National Academy of Sports Medicine PES, CES, BCS, and CNC certifications. In 2012 she developed P.R.O.11®, the only Sports Medicine-specific training program built around the Electro-Acuscope/Myopulse Therapy System.  How does microcurrent therapy actually help an injured horse?Because microcurrent matches the body's own electrical level, the tissue accepts it efficiently and the instruments help the body normalize the damaged circuitry in nerves and muscle rather than masking pain. Equinessence cites a minimum 50% accelerated recovery rate across a wide range of injuries and conditions, and the work is non-invasive and drug-free. Molly treats Go Be Quick — her own barrel horse who fractured a coffin bone in 2009 — as a case in point: the mare recovered roughly 75% faster than prognosis and placed 5th of 691 entries at the NBHA Las Vegas Super Show on her return. As Charlotte Jorst of Kastel Denmark puts it, “She is the first person I call when a horse gets injured. When she treats, you just know that the lay-up time is going to be reduced significantly.” Which conditions does Equinessence treat?The system addresses neuromuscular and musculoskeletal problems across both horses and dogs. The treated list includes bowed tendons, strained and torn ligaments, joint inflammation, osteoarthritis and degenerative joint disease (DJD), osteochondritis dissecans (OCD), navicular, laminitis and founder, ring bone, splints, fractures, kissing spine, disc disease, Wobblers syndrome (CVM), Sweeney, pinched and damaged nerves, muscle spasms, edema, wounds, and surgical scars. In one documented stringhalt case, a horse that had not been able to trot in over three and a half years was seen trotting to the gate after nine sessions. Molly works alongside veterinarians, holding that “it takes a team of professionals in order to create a balanced healing environment for the animal.”What instruments and products can owners buy through Equinessence?As an ATS Authorized Dealer, Equinessence sells the current 4th-generation Animal Calibrated instruments — the Electro-Acuscope 80T and the Electro-Myopulse 75T (the Myopulse offers dual output to treat two locations at once) — along with the portable Acuscope 85P (no longer in production). Buyers can choose a Professional Accessory Package built for working therapists or a Personal Use Package for individual horse and dog owners that bundles solution, electrodes, cords, and accessories, plus protective cases designed exclusively by Equinessence. Molly also handcrafts the Equine Relief Products line of organic topicals — offered as the Black Label Collection and White Label Collection — to ease discomfort, tension, inflammation, and pain. Pricing is quoted through a customized presentation rather than listed online.How do you book Molly or order an instrument?Equinessence is based in Reno, Nevada, and Molly can be reached directly at (775) 287-5772 or by. Purchases start with a phone or Zoom consultation and a needs assessment to match the right model and package to your animal and goals, after which she provides a presentation with pricing. Owners who want to learn the system themselves can enroll in the ATS Acuscope courses Molly teaches nationally and internationally, with tracks ranging from owners caring for their own animals to licensed professionals expanding their practices to candidates pursuing full ATS Certified Therapist status. The Equinessence tagline sums up the standard she holds: Equinessence® is The Essence of Elite Equine Care. |
