Barbara Berger, L.Ac is a Nationally Recognized Expert in Microcurrent Therapy.
​​
After receiving my acupuncture license in the1980's, acupuncture was virtually unknown. In my office building, a chiropractor was successfully treating athletes by combining chiropractic treatments with microcurrent. He had an associate in Los Angeles, Neil Goldfarb who had developed unique techniques and protocols for facial rejuvenation with microcurrent. I was invited to learn these technique, and so began my 30 year practice using Microcurrent for Pain and Injury and Microcurrent Facial Rejuvenation.
​
​As interest in microcurrent grew, device manufacturers developed proprietary programs for cosmetic use specifically for skincare professionals. I was invited by acupuncture schools throughout the country to teach Microcurrent Continuing Education.

Microcurrent is not taught at acupuncture schools, and practitioners often express confusion regarding different electrotherapy devices such as Microcurrent, Traditional TENS and Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS). Helping acupuncturists and estheticians build a solid foundation and understanding of this exceptional healing modality is very rewarding.
