Galvanic Current
The process of forcing a water-based solution into the skin by applying Galvanic Current to the solution
What is Phoresis
Used to relax a client, aid in the penetration of product and assist in massage for mature skin.
What is Indirect High Frequency.
Preserves muscle tone; improves circulation and provides relaxation.
What is Indirect Faridic Current
The portion of the electromagmetic spectrum humans can see
What is Visible Light.
The transfer of heat via liquid or gas
What is Convection
Allows an alkaline solution to enter the skin when assisted by Galvanic Current and the negative pole of an electrode.
What is Anaphoresis
Invented a machine that used High Frequency, alternating current to send electrical currents and strong vibrations through a person’s skin to help in healing and relieving pain.
Who is Nikola Tesla
An alternating current that is interrupted to produce a mechanical, non-chemical reaction.
What is a Faradic Current
Referred to as combination light
What is White Light.
Created when electric current travels through a water-based solution (a liquid conductor) and onto the body.
What are Electrochemical Effects.
A positively charged electrode.
What is an Anode.
Too much of this can actually damage the tissue.
What is Ozone.
Deeper penetration to treated area; greater stimulation to treated area; less irritation
What is Sinusoidal Current.
The electrons that make wave-like patterns of movement when heat energy is transferred by radiation.
What is electromagnetic radiation.
The transfer of heat through a vacuum (empty space).
What is Radiation.
A treatment in which sebum is broken down or blackheads are liquified, as in deep-pore cleansing.
What is Desincrustation.
Treats oily skin with overall congestion; spot treats blemishes
What is Direct High Frequency
Discovered the principles behind the electric motor, transformer and generator.
Who is Michael Faraday
This kind of light is provided by an ordinary light bulb. Normally this light produces “red” tones or “warm” casts in the objects it lights.
What is incandescent light.
Rolled into small areas around the nose, mouth and near the eyes using Galvanic Current
What is a Metal Ball.
Means to wander
What is Ionto.
The narrow space between the electrode and skin used to provide germicidal, healing and drying effects Direct or Indirect High Frequency treatments.
What is Sparking or a Spark Gap.
Stimulates muscles; improves blood circulation; improves muscle tone; increases glandular activity
What is Direct Faradic
The longest of the ultraviolet rays and are most frequently used in tanning booths.
What are UVA rays.
Heat that destroys cells and tissues.
What is Intense heat
