Why the Arc4Health?

Non-invasive

Drug-free

Wearable & Discreet

Fully rechargeable

Easy to use

Scientifically proven

Science You Trust. Care You Deserve.

Our story began at a kitchen table with a simple belief: technology should make life better – for people and for animals. Back in 2008, we were a small family-founded company with big ideas, a passion for research, and a determination to turn science into something practical and accessible.

We didn’t invent microcurrent therapy or the body’s remarkable ability to heal itself. What we did was reimagine it – making it smaller, smarter, and wearable. From those humble beginnings, we’ve grown into a trusted name in healthcare technology, helping people manage pain, support recovery, and improve wellbeing in a way that’s drug-free, non-invasive, and easy to use.

Our Arc4Health device brings the same innovation and care beyond the equine and veterinary world, directly to human health – supporting tissue repair, pain relief, and overall wellbeing for everyday people, athletes, and those living with chronic conditions. Designed to work in harmony with the body’s natural healing processes, Arc4Health helps individuals manage pain, recover from injury, and enhance quality of life without relying solely on medication or invasive treatments – giving people the freedom to live life on their terms.

Every step of our journey has been guided by care: care for the people who trust our products, care for the horses and pets who rely on us, and care for the science that makes it all possible. Today, our mission remains the same: to combine innovation with compassion, so more lives – human and animal – can benefit from technology that truly makes a difference.

What is the Arc4Health?

The Arc4Health is a wearable health device. It utilises microcurrent therapy, and is applied through the skin via either self-adhesive conductive pads, or carbon rubber pads, which are attached to the integrated arm strap. Although intended to be worn around the upper arm, as microcurrent therapy has a whole-body (systemic) effect, it can also be worn around the lower leg. The Arc4Health has four three-hour long automated programmes, each with a different objective. Introducing 4.6 million pulses into the body in a single treatment. The Arc4Health requires no specialist training, which means you can have your finger on the pulse of cutting-edge healthcare immediately. Despite the complexity of our technology, it’s just 1 finger, 2 buttons, 4 programmes and thousands of happy customers.


What is Microcurrent therapy?

Microcurrent therapy is a type of electrotherapy that has been widely studied since the 1970’s. It involves the application of very low-level (micro) electrical currents into the body in order to help the body heal itself. These currents are similar to the natural electrical signals that our bodies use to communicate between cells, and are so small that they are often not felt by the person receiving the treatment.

Research has demonstrated that microcurrent can help the body reduce inflammation and its associated pain while increasing its own natural tissue repair and regeneration mechanisms. This can result in accelerated tissue repair and healing rates.

How it works

Mimicking Natural Cellular Activity: The microcurrents used in this therapy mimic the body’s own electrical signals. This helps to stimulate the cells and tissues in the body, encouraging them to repair and regenerate. By applying these small currents, microcurrent therapy can enhance cellular activity. This means it can boost the production of energy within cells, known as ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which is essential for cell repair and growth.

Promoting Healing: The therapy can help reduce inflammation, improve blood circulation, and promote the healing of tissues. It is often used for pain management, wound healing, and even cosmetic treatments like reducing wrinkles and improving skin texture. 

Targeted AND Whole-body Treatment: Microcurrent therapy has both localised and whole-body effects, which contributes to its many benefits. Meaning it does not need to be worn near the site of injury/illness to have an effect.


What is ATP?

Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) is the molecule used by all living cells to provide a constant supply of energy which enables them to carry out all necessary cellular functions. ATP is formed from an Adenosine molecule with three phosphate molecules bonded to it, hence the ‘tri’ in the name. The energy stored in ATP is released when the bond holding the third phosphate molecule to the rest of the ATP molecule is broken. The product of this process is Adenosine DiPhosphate (ADP) and a separate phosphate molecule (Pi).

During cellular respiration, the bond between this phosphate and the ADP is re-made, thus reforming a molecule of ATP.  In this way, ATP in our cells is constantly being broken down and re-formed in order to provide them with an unending essential energy source.


Known benefits

Pain Relief: It can help manage chronic pain by reducing inflammation and promoting tissue repair.

Wound Healing: It speeds up the healing process of wounds by stimulating cell regeneration.

Muscle Recovery: It aids in the recovery of injured muscles by boosting cellular energy and reducing inflammation.

Skin Health: It can improve skin appearance by reducing wrinkles and enhancing skin texture.

Overall, microcurrent therapy is a gentle and non-invasive way to support the body’s natural healing processes. It’s a versatile treatment that can be used for various health and cosmetic purposes.


Microcurrent therapy vs TENS

A common question, but really there is no such thing as Microcurrent versus TENS. They are very different, except for the fact that they both use electricity. Microcurrent speaks an entirely different language to the body because it uses a current 1,000 times lower, which is why you can’t feel our devices. TENS blocks pain, whereas the Arc4Health treats the cause of the pain- the inflammation.

That’s not to say that TENS aren’t effective, as anyone in considerable pain will tell you, but take a TENS machine off and the pain returns as the same underlying issue causing the pain remains. In fact, in a race against pain, a TENS machine would no doubt be faster than Microcurrent.

This is not how Microcurrent deals with pain. Microcurrent aims to help the body repair tissue where inflammation is based, and inflammation is how the body perceives pain. As an injury is repaired, the pain subsides due to the injury getting better, not a temporary block. We are offering a longer term solution to chronic pain.

What Our Customers Say

“I am a sceptic when it comes to things I can’t physically see working and to things I don’t quite understand. But what I do understand is that the Arc4Health sped up my post-surgery healing and reduced pain to the point I was able to sleep comfortably. The positive effect it had made me look forward to my ‘ARC Time’ more than my (strong!) pain medication!”

“I suffer from osteoarthritis, with a sclerosis in my spine and degenerative spondylitis. The day I saw the article in the Mail on Sunday was a game changer for me, it’s the best thing I’ve had to help manage the pain since my diagnosis. I feel that I’m walking better and standing straighter, people are also commenting on the difference in me.”

“Ruptured my ACL and MCL skiing on 31/12/24. Decided to go down the physio led rehab route and use the Arc4health instead of having my hamstring harvested for ACL reconstruction. I was rescanned on 18/7/25 and my ACL has reattached and totally healed. Surgeon is absolutely amazed, and I am thrilled!! Thank you Arc4Health.”
