So I have been trying to treat my excessive sweaty soles for a while now. A year ago, I purchased the PC and had some success, using about 20 ma from 30 minutes to an hour for several weeks. My skin showed dryness and cracking. But after eight weeks, I felt discouraged as I couldn't get close to normal sweating.
Markus very kindly exchanged my PC to a DC with no additional charge and paid the difference between the two machines too. He said the DC could go up to 35ma and I seem to tolerate the higher levels with minimum problems.
After some reading, I decided to try botox for my feet and with that, I got only very, very partial success and it cost me a lot of money. But I tried it so I am satisfied with the knowledge that botox doesn't work for me. I don't know about other people.
It's been a little more than a week now since I have re-started my treatments. I use warm to hot water because the tingling is noticeable. My skin feels drier and tougher, but I am still excessively sweating so I am going to continue. I have been doing 35 ma for 30-45 minutes and it doesn't hurt me at all.
A question for Markus, if the water can't reach 35 ma, will the machine be able to tell? With the PC, I could manually tell if the water is able to go up to 10 or 20. I moved to a different state so maybe the water is harder here. It doesn't hurt at all and sometimes I can't even feel the tingling but it's at 35 every time I use it.
I also been using epsom salt for the last few days as I read that it hardens water. Should I switch to baking soda as that seems to be more popular? Is it more effective?
So in conclusion, the machine is doing 'something' and it took me three weeks with the PC so the DC is faster for me. I will update this and hopefully, I can move this to the success board very soon.  I wish everyone luck with their own treatments. |
