Today we’d like to introduce you to Mila Morgan
Hi Mila, so excited to have you with us today. What can you tell us about your story?
THE JOURNEY TO MEDICAL MICROCURRENT: A STORY OF RESILIENCE AND INNOVATION
As a child growing up in Alaska, I always felt a magnetic pull towards Los Angeles. Visits with family and days spent on LA’s beaches dreaming under the sun, I felt I belonged here. This instilled in me a sense that this vibrant city held my destiny. It wasn’t just the allure of Hollywood; it was something deeper—a belief that LA was where creativity and cutting edge opportunities converged.
In 2011, I finally made the move to Los Angeles. This decision would define the next chapter of my life in ways I could never have orchestrated on my own. Although I did not know anyone in LA and I’d never had a business class let alone started a business, I had a deep belief I was making the right decision. The initial shock of LA’s exorbitant rental costs did little to deter my goals. Despite having owned property elsewhere, the financial leap required to establish myself in LA was daunting. Yet, standing on the cusp of West Hollywood and Beverly Hills, I envisioned my future studio amidst the bustling streets and palm-lined avenues. With unwavering resolve, I set out to make my dreams a reality.
UNEARTHING MEDICAL MICROCURRENT: A NOBEL PRIZE-AWARDED MODALITY
My journey with Medical Microcurrent (MMC) began in 2008, a pivotal year when I stumbled upon this revolutionary therapeutic modality.
Despite my extensive medical background—having been head of a level 1 Trauma ICU; trained in and practiced anesthesiology at Mayo Clinic and University of Texas; and obtained a Master’s degree in Psychology and BS in Health Sciences—MMC was a revelation.
The fact it was scientifically proven to profoundly reduce inflammation, accelerate healing (6x faster than normal), strengthen muscles, and rejuvenate tissues intrigued me deeply.
The numerous physiologic changes were all positive and given my extensive study in neuroscience I was especially interested in how MMC affected the brain. I was astounded that such a transformative treatment, recognized with a Nobel Prize in the category medicine/or physiology in the 80’s, remained largely unknown in 2008. When I set up my practice in LA in 2011 my research revealed no one in the medical field was using this treatment. Even in Europe.
NAVIGATING PERSONAL TRIALS: OVERCOMING ADVERSITY IN PURSUIT OF PASSION
About five years before relocating to Los Angeles to establish my MMC practice, I faced perhaps my greatest personal challenge: extricating myself from a tumultuous marriage with a physician diagnosed with bipolar II disorder, clinical narcissism and sociopathy with a paranoid personality disorder. He also had several addictions. The aftermath of divorce left me physically, emotionally, spiritually and financially depleted, compounded by threats of retaliation from my ex-husband who, three times, vowed to “destroy” me.
His vindictiveness cast a shadow over my early days in LA, instilling fear and doubt as I embarked on my entrepreneurial journey. Enduring this attack on me I ended up in the physiologic state of “fight or flight”. In this state the brain loses cognitive function and is basically in a mammalian ( “old”) brain state. Critical thinking eluded me and I made many mistakes during those years. It is surprising my physical health stayed relatively intact and I believe it was due to Medical Microcurrent.
Despite these daunting circumstances, I refused to retreat. Instead, I drew strength from within and through my spiritual mentor who helped me heal my emotional traumas. I sought refuge in spiritual practices, particularly meditation, which became my sanctuary amidst the chaos.
The transition to LA was fraught with emotional pandemonium, but through perseverance I gradually reclaimed my confidence and purpose. Every setback became a testament to my resilience, propelling me forward in my mission to introduce MMC as a transformative cosmetic and healing modality.
THE MECHANISM OF ACTION OF MEDICAL MICROCURRENT: HARNESSING THE BODY’S ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Central to MMC’s effectiveness is its ability to precisely mimic the body’s natural electrical current, facilitating cellular changes, nerve regeneration and enhancing physiologic function. Beyond cosmetic applications such as my highly specialized Nonsurgical Facelift and Body Sculpting protocols, MMC proved instrumental in treating a spectrum of medical conditions. From pain management and healing injuries to emotional well-being- even decreasing depression and anxiety- I was astonished at the effectiveness of MMC.
The #1 physiologic effect with MMC is a profound decrease in inflammation throughout the body and as we know all disease starts with inflammation. This is why I have seen almost every type of issue improve or even resolve with MMC. I also believe our body was meant to self correct and with MMC the body is able to return to its innate ability to heal itself.
Even more astonishing, this noninvasive modality does not damage tissues, is not painful, and there are no adverse side effects. Clients leave their sessions feeling a sense of well-being. Many say, “I never want to leave here!” Besides stating they are out of pain or an issue is resolved I can’t think of a better testimonial!
Within two years of practice Medical Microcurrent would be the catalyst to change everything I believed about how we heal. This led me down a new path studying quantum physics and quantum mechanics and realizing that we do have the power to heal ourselves.
The physiologic changes brought about by Medical Microcurrent, even with cosmetic applications, allows our body to function at its most optimum level. The body inherently desires homeostasis. These multitude of benefits underscore MMC’s potential as a future cornerstone of healing treatment and preventive medicine.
FUN FACT: In the Roman days they were using eels to heal arthritis!
A REESULTS-DRIVEN BUSINESS LEADS TO REFERRALS
My business was supercharged by results-driven outcomes. Although written up in a National Publication my third year here I did not advertise. It was almost all referral. Others came in through information and photos from my website or Instagram. Clients were flying in from Europe, Hong Kong, Canada, NY and other US states.
A results driven therapy leads to balanced health. Is this a radical thought for western medicine these days? Sadly, many clients say yes. True healing cannot occur by treating symptomatology alone, it must address etiology. I believe Medical Microcurrent will be how we heal in the future.
EMPOWERING OTHERS THROUGH HEALING AND KNOWLEDGE
Today, my work extends far beyond MMC, encompassing a mission to re-educate and empower individuals on holistic health and the untapped potential of their bodies. I also subscribe to the belief that emotions cause disease and can get stuck in tissues which also causes the body to be imbalanced. It is important to address this. Holistic means we look at the whole person: physically, physiologically, emotionally, sexually, relationally, spiritually, and all that is going on in their day too day lives. When one area is unhealthy the whole system becomes unbalanced.
Through online teaching, and client treatments, I debunk outdated health myths such as ‘our health will decline every decade’ or that ‘we only use 10% of our brain’….this is old programming. I hope to inspire others to embrace proactive self-care, understand the power of our thoughts and beliefs regarding illness (and healing) and be open to new ideas that may seem unattainable or impossible. In 14 years practicing MMC on myself I have never been sick. To me that is extraordinary.
EMBRACING TRANSFORMATION AND GRATITUDE
Reflecting on my journey—from my medical background to personal struggles to healing emotional wounds and pioneering MMC—I recognize every challenge as a catalyst for expansion and enlightenment. The resilience forged through adversity fuels my passion for continuous growth and healing, both for myself and clients.
Change is hard. But limits only exist in our minds.
CONCLUSION: THE EVOLUTION OF PASSION INTO PURPOSE
My entrepreneurial odyssey—from uncertainty to freedom—embodies the transformative power of embracing new possibilities and trusting our instincts. We gain wisdom from mistakes and pain is a motivator for change. I often think about how this journey evolved. Overnight success is years in the making as the saying goes. Everything I have experienced brought me to this place. As I continue to witness the profound impacts of Medical Microcurrent on lives, I am reminded that expertise and success are the fruits of education, perseverance, dedication, receptiveness, love of the work, and unwavering belief in the power of innovation.
I am grateful for everything I’ve experienced in life. Even the pain. When I had no idea how I would survive or if I’d ever escape what seemed like an unremitting hell, an idea was presented to me. I got through one day at a time….and on some days 5 minutes at a time.
I believe that everything we endure is for our greatest and highest good. We are not alone. We all have similar struggles. Gratitude unlocks our potential. The power of gratitude has even been scientifically proven to increase our immunity. Being grateful grounds us. Staying grateful frees us.
Thank you, Voyage LA for the opportunity to tell part of my story. I’ve loved reading about others’ inspiring journeys.
Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
I discuss some of this in the article. However, one thing I want to stress is as adults we always have a part in every relationship. As adults, even if we were victimized, we cannot live as victims, blaming others, being defensive, or passive/aggressive. Victims don’t have boundaries. Victims seek validation from others, or are people pleasers, or avoid challenges and are sometimes perfectionists who suffer from negative self-talk. We must own our behavior (accountability) and change what needs changing.
Accountability builds trust, improves communication and fosters mutual respect. It is one way to resolve conflict and promotes a healthier dynamic.
(As children when we are victimized it is a very different situation. We rarely play a part in that case.)
Stress kills. Healing emotional wounds is crucial to prevent others from abusing us emotionally, physically. By addressing and resolving past traumas, we build resilience, health, self respect, and boundaries that protect us from future harm. This internal healing work can change us into self aware, critically thinking calm adults. It frees us and this is how we become fully actualized adults who then can work magic in building the life that we desire, including having a positive impact in our family and community.

I am grateful for the education and experience I’ve received at Mayo Clinic, the University of Texas and the Level 1 Trauma ICU, and for being able to start a business in Los Angeles! Thank you to everyone who helped me get started including the clients who tried MMC without really knowing much about it, and all the referrals for sharing my work. I’m so grateful. Only in a city like LA could this happen!
My education and experience have allowed me to become an authority and expert in Medical Microcurrent.
So, before we go, how can our readers or others connect or collaborate with you? How can they support you?
I hope to start collaborating with scientific and research groups, studying the effects of MMC on various disease states.
I will be launching microcurrentuniversity.com and begin training in Medical Microcurrent in 2025.
I support a local business who works with animals, mostly dogs. I have treated horses, and dogs with Medical Microcurrent and have had exciting results. Currently I am working with a dog who has a serious eye injury from being attacked by another dog. We are in process of using MMC to prevent enucleation (removal of the eye). In four sessions the healing has been extraordinary. I hope to collaborate with this dogs Veterinarian and bring awareness to Veterinarian medicine on the efficacy of MMC for animals.
I offer sliding scale for clients who have sick or hurt dogs.
VETERINARY MEDICINE: I read several years ago that Microcurrent was used in Equine medicine. I hope to bring more awareness to people who work with animals that MMC heals animals as quickly as it does people.
