A holistic look at high frequency and hydrogen
peroxide. History of high frequency. Nikola Tesla,
who was an engineer and inventor, is best known
for bringing alternating current, AC, electricity,
to the world. Without that, we wouldn't have
the use of the many conveniences we have today.
He also invented the violet ray, the high-frequency
machine. In the past, the medical profession
treated infections and enhanced the healing of
wounds with this device. Its use was called electrotherapy.
Manufacturers stopped producing it because making
products for the war were necessary. Decades later,
pharmaceutical drugs replaced their use. The Food
and Drug Administration, FDA, banned it in 1950
because manufacturers claimed it alleviated many
health concerns and some may have misused it.
The aesthetic industry has been fortunate enough
to have taken advantage of the medical system's
decision to avoid this technique.
