How Important Proper "Calibration" Is
Presently, there are only two calibrations of these instruments available, human calibrated instruments and animal calibrated instruments. The need for proper instrument calibration is due to the physiological differences between human and animal cellular function.
The biofeedback system being used by the human calibrated instruments is neither correct nor precise when interacting with animal tissue. The results and responses will not be nearly as effective as when the animal calibrated instruments are utilized, therefore the treatment is undoubtedly compromised when using a human calibrated instrument on animal tissue. There will still be results, however as mentioned above, they will not be AS EFFICIENT as a properly calibrated machine.
The Animal Calibrated Acuscope and Myopulse instruments far surpass the human instruments in their ability to fine tune the muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia, and nervous system of the animal. The correct calibration is necessary in order to obtain faster, far-superior results with this therapy system. These instruments have been specifically designed to interface with animal anatomy as well as their unique metabolism and physiology. In order to treat patients properly and optimize results, the calibration is a very important factor. This factor should definitely be taken into consideration when choosing a Certified Animal Acuscope Therapist to work on your animal, or when choosing to become an Animal Acuscope Therapist yourself.
From the Manufacturer:
A technical explanation for the importance of using correctly calibrated instruments written by Dr. Anthony Nebrensky:
The instrument calibration is a very important factor due to remarkable differences which exist within the distribution of the electrical current between human and animal subjects. In the collected measurement of bio-impedance from cross sectional areas of excitation points can show up to 30%-90% in difference (depending on the breed of animal) caused by dynamic changes in pulsatile blood flow to organs, arterial pulse waveforms and respiration.
This means that if the instrument is not calibrated for animal use, the impedance window becomes too large and the constant current stage of the excitation source will not be able to supply enough voltage to keep the signal constant. This will result in lower than expected values, noisy "pulsatile" imprecise and indistinct data signals.
We recommend Acuscope users to calibrate instruments for use in animal therapy.
