Dynamic FUTUREHEALTH'S systems use the highest quality instrumentation and have many more years
of research, development and user feedback invested in them than our often higher priced
competitors. Our systems are designed for clinicians who want the highest quality combined
with the easiest software made practical and efficient for everyday use in a busy
practice. That means robust, sturdy technology made to last and software which makes your
life easier, not more complicated.  
 Futurehealth Inc. has been providing EMG equipment to the Chiropractic market since the
early 1980's, long before any other company providing EMGs to Chiropractors. It has seen
numerous chiropractic EMG companies go out of business or simply fade away. FUTUREHEALTH
is in the EMG business for the long haul. Our products have always been at the cutting
edge. leasing the field, introducing innovations. Yet, because we also market to the rest
of the health care market (competing against a dozen other EMG vendors), we keep our
prices lower than the handful of chiropractic only EMG companies. You get the benefit of
power, versatility, credibility and lower pricing.  
 Why Add Surface EMG to Your practice?

 Patient Education and Motivation
 Surface EMG has emerged as one of the most powerful tools available for demonstrating
progress to your patients. Consultants and trainers at numerous, prominent national
Chiropractic seminars are recommending surface EMG as a powerful patient motivation and
retention tool because it helps show Chiropractic results-- elimination of the subluxation
complex. Changes in muscle EMG activity and asymmetry are reported to be powerful
indicators you can use to show progress and motivate patients to continue treatment.  
 EMG Hardware & Software:
  A system consists of EMG hardware and EMG software.  
  The hardware connects to the computer and is used to scan the sites being assessed.
    Static EMG uses scanners, Dynamic/kinesiologic EMG uses attached adhesive electrodes.
    FUTUREHEALTH offers numerous hardware EMG instrumentation platforms. 
  It is the software which guides the protocol, the technician, generates the imaging, the
    report and prints out the color graphics. Our software is what makes us special. EMI/CAM Scan static Muscle imaging
  Static paraspinal scanning is a quick (3-12 minutes depending on protocol) approach to
    getting an idea of muscle activity levels from face to neck to low back. EMI scan takes
    the electrical activity, converts it to numbers and dramatic color graphic information you
    can easiliy print out. Repeat the procedure every so often to monitor changes which may
    reflect progress.  
  Static scanning is fast, but it only tells about the state of muscles at rest, in a
    seated or standing posture. Dynamic/kinesiological EMG collects EMG signal data during
    movement. WHAT MAKES EMI/CAM SCAN SPECIAL?
  Graphics are exceptional. They make the EMG signal understandable to patients,
    adjusters, attorneys.  
  We include head and face muscles (some patients do experience headaches, TMJ, etc.)  
  The automated interpreter and semi-automated report generator is excellent.  
 Physiotech Dynamic Kinesiologic EMG
  four and eight channel dynamic sEMG systems with friendly software for easy measurement
    of EMG during movement 
  Kinesiologic EMG enables you to evaluate the role of indibvvidual muscle groups in
    routine movements-- raising from seated to standing, walking, rotating, flexion-extension,
    lifting, typing at a keyboard. 
  The theory is, by observing multiple bilateral and or antagonist muscle pairs, you can
    better understand their contribution to maladaptive bracing, spasm, or excessive
    inhibition patterns. 4 or 8 channel EMG enables you to observe more muscles than you could
    palpate or visually watch. It allows you to quantify the data, so you can objectify it for
    monitoring of progress.  audio and video tapes from World's 1st Advanced

 Authors Bio:
 
 One theme has run through my work for the past 40 plus years-- a desire to play a role in waking people up, raising their consciousness and empowering them. I was the organizer founder of the Winter Brain, Optimal Functioning and Positive Psychology and StoryCon Meetings and president of Futurehealth, Inc., with interests in Positive Psychology as well as being involved in the field of biofeedback/neurofeedback since 1972.
 see my more detailed bio, reflecting my work in biofeedback,  here.
 
 In 2003 I founded www.OpEdNews.com , where I've written over 1800 articles and have published over 100,000 other people's writings, with the goal of raising people's consciousness in political and activist ways.
