What Is Biolelctric Meridian Therapy | BMT Explained
Bioelectric, also known as BMT or Bioelectric Meridian Therapy, is a gentle manual therapy that is used when providing deep tissue treatment by a professional therapist.
It can be safely applied to all ages, from babies to the elderly, and has advantages for both the client and the therapist.
This alkalising, detoxifying and relaxing treatment is by far the best experience to have when you need to feel and look well.
What is Bioelectric Meridian Therapy?
Bioelectric is the current of electricity that the living cells, tissues, and organisms generate.
The term also refers to the potential energy that occurs in the cells, tissues and organisms.
Various biological processes generate bioelectric currents that the cells use to transmit impulses along nerves, control the functions of tissues and organs, and control metabolism.
It’s Acupuncture without the use of fine needles; instead the Bioelectric penetrates through the hands of the therapist clearing toxins and carbon dioxide
During a bioelectric treatment, the therapist uses his/her hands to regulate the electrode machine’s delivery of electric current voltage to the client.
According to Tracy Traulier, Bioelectric Meridian Therapy (BMT) aims to promote the self-healing mechanism of the body by opening meridian pathways, increasing the system’s proprioceptive communication, and enabling the body to proceed with homeostasis.
Proprioception is the body’s ability to sense movement, action and location.
BMT from ABMMA is a cutting-edge therapy that joins together principles of Traditional Eastern and Western Technology.
It is a protective ‘tool’ that magnifies the outcomes of numerous modalities.
The application of bioelectric meridian care is made with high-quality alkaline massage cream containing Alfalfa and the necessary oils.
When utilized in combination with bioelectric current, the oils help in dissolving the toxins that have become clogged under the skin.
Bioelectric is safe and not harmful to the body because it only uses a maximum of 8V which is extremely low, and employs only a subtle amount of pulsation.

Advantages of Bioelectric Meridian Therapy
The treatment is safe, can be provided with ease by a qualified practitioner and furthermore, is suitable for all ages, with a few exceptions.
BMT is an advanced way of administering massage in this modern era.
During a BMT, the therapist uses their hands to regulate a machine’s delivery of electric current voltage to the client through electrode pads. These are placed on the side of the client’s hips.
This allows current to come through the therapist’s fingers onto the client’s body.
The therapist controls the frequency and the level of the signal depending on the situation under treatment and the response from the tissue of the client.
Be that as it may, there are many benefits that one stands to gain through using BMT.
It triggers the migration of Qi and blood within the body in order to handle any meridian pathway blockages.
It opens meridian pathways, boosts the circulation of blood, and promotes homeostasis.
Bioelectric energy deeply penetrates the body’s systems, changing the velocity of blood flow and the size of vessels.
The energy reduces the viscosity of the blood, boosts micro-circulation, improves cell oxygenation, and removes carbon dioxide.
Energizing cells and transferring electrons
Bioelectric Meridian Therapy energy is potent stuff
Bioelectricity is capable of energizing the cells and eliminating contaminants from the body.
It also helps in electron transfer in the Krebs cycle, which produces ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) in mitochondria.
Furthermore, bioelectric energy can activate the cells of nerves and tissues, with the possibility of resuscitating ailing cells.
In this regard, it may assist in improving neurovascular and neuromuscular links, especially in individuals who have had a stroke or who have muscle atrophy.
Also, it regulates the digestive system and helps with controlling the endocrine glands and systems, boosting the condition of the digestive system.
It enhances beauty and fitness, slows ageing, and in addition, helps the body to maintain its shape by burning fats.
Bioelectric has three pillars:
1) Bioelectric machine
A low current signal of electricity passes from the machine through the hands of the therapist to the client.
2) The touch of a therapist
The therapist controls the frequency and the level of the signal depending on the situation under treatment and the response from the tissue of the client.
The therapist’s ability to understand the response from the client’s tissues forms a vital part of therapy.
3) High alkaline creams and oils
When utilized in combination with bioelectric power, they help in dissolving the toxins that have built up under the skin.
Elements of bioelectric meridian therapy
High-alkaline Alfalfa creams and essential oils are used. On using bioelectricity, cells and tissues enlarge to increase the skin’s permeability by close to 70-80%.
This allows for the easy absorption of the micro components in the cream.
The combination of the alkaline components of the cream (base) and the body’s acid is known as neutralization.
It leads to the production of acidic excretions called metabolic body fluid (salt and water). Acid + base = salt + water (neutralization).
The current can assist in triggering and restoring the cells to their usual charge. For a resting meridian movement, the human body utilizes a charge of 2.5V-3V.
The human body can endure 36V, while 42V is risky. The Bioelectric machine uses a maximum of 8V.
Benefits and functions of Bioelectric when used with correct technique
1) Cell activation
Bioelectricity is capable of energizing the cells and can assist in eliminating contaminants from the body.
It helps in electron transfer in the Krebs cycle, which produces ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) in mitochondria.
Glycolysis and Krebs cycle (various steps of a chemical reaction) produce ATP. As we use energy, ATP changes to ADP, a chemical that the Krebs cycle can recharge with energy to become ATP once again.
2) Nerve and muscle tissue activation
Bioelectric energy can activate the cells of nerves and tissues, with the possibility of resuscitating ailing cells.
Through this, it may assist in improving neurovascular and neuromuscular links.
3) Digestive system regulation
The treatment helps with controlling the endocrine glands and systems, boosting the condition of the digestive system.
Enhanced digestion and systems that function better can improve metabolic rate and energy levels.
4) Anti-inflammatory role
Clearing the meridian pathways using bioelectric energy enhances the Lymphatic Drainage System and the body’s immunity.
5) Fatigue elimination
The application of bioelectric energy assists the pituitary glands in producing more endorphins (neurotransmitters).
The body naturally produces endorphins to manage stress or pain, and an increase in endorphins leads to a reduction in body fatigue.
6) Purification and detoxification of the body
Bioelectric energy is a direct system of detoxification that promotes the movement of the body towards the balance of acid/base by influencing electrolytes, increasing the rate of blood flow, and cleaning meridians.
The practitioner applies specially chosen alkaline therapeutic creams and oils which help to detoxify the body.
7) Beauty, slimming, and fitness
Bioelectric energy facilitates bodily electrochemical reactions. To put it another way, based on the listed benefits above, this therapy is capable of improving many functions in the body.
Someone with efficient organs and a properly functioning system has more possibility of slowing ageing, burning fats efficiently, and having brilliant, healthy skin.
8) Removing the blockages in the meridians
Bioelectric charge triggers the migration of Qi and blood within the body to handle any meridian pathway blockages.
Open meridian pathways boost the circulation of blood and ensure uniform homeostasis.
9) Enhancing the circulation of blood
Bioelectric energy deeply penetrates the body’s systems, changing the velocity of blood flow and the size of vessels.
As a result, this boosts micro-circulation, improves cell oxygenation, and removes carbon dioxide.
This may therefore help protect against cardiovascular illnesses.
How is Bioelectric better than a regular massage?
The use of manual therapy in a regular massage may give you only temporary feel-good relief.
Regular massages may feel nice but it doesn’t have the blood alkalising effects and benefits found during Bioelectric meridian therapy.
Bioelectric meridian therapy not only leaves you feeling rejuvenated, but it is also cost-effective because one session feels as effective as having had 3 regular massages.
The body is deeply relaxed and heals rapidly due to the flow of better Qi/energy.
You will be good to go for several weeks if you are generally fit and healthy.
However, those with severe conditions such as acute back pain, post-surgery conditions and muscle injuries, could require a minimum of 5 treatments to effectively see full results.
You can find out more by inquiring about our rehabilitation programs.
Who can benefit from BMT?
Generally, everyone from age 12 to 55 and over. The only people we cannot treat are pregnant women and those who have undergone heart implants or heart surgery.
All other conditions can be treated with Bioelectric as a complementary therapy due to its healing benefits.
BMT helps with pain management
Adults, in particular, enjoy Bioelectric because of its deep tissue soothing penetration, relieving tight muscles or back problems caused by ageing, heavy lifting and certain occupational hazards.
