These currents also have a germicidal and antiseptic (destroys infective germs) effect that calms the exploits of bacterial toxins. A spark passes from electrode to the skin, which converts the ambient oxygen into ozone (condensed oxygen). This ozone is a powerful disinfectant. This process causes an acid environment on the surface (pH below 5.5). It is important to avoid an alkaline state (pH of over 5.5) as this encourages bacteria.
