In general, microcurrent means a current of less than 1000 ㎂, and a biocurrent corresponding to 40 to 60 ㎂ in the human body flows for signal transmission between organs in the human body. In general, when the state of the body is unstable, the biocurrent flowing in the human body is weakened. In order to compensate for the weakened biocurrent, various treatment methods have been developed to help restore the body's ability by forcibly allowing current to flow from the outside into the human body. For example, microcurrent has been reported to be effective in increasing adenosine triphosphate production, promoting fracture healing, improving blood circulation, relieving pain, treating diabetes, osteoporosis, and arthritis.

Effects obtained by forcibly allowing microcurrent to flow inside the human body can be divided into an increase in capillary blood flow and an increase in microcirculation in the human body. Effects due to the increase in capillary blood flow include improving blood circulation, relieving muscle fatigue, relieving pain, improving peripheral nerves, promoting wound healing, promoting growth, promoting cell activity, and promoting bone formation. In addition, there are effects such as fat cell decomposition, collagen synthesis increase, metabolism enhancement, endocrine hormone activation, and edema reduction as effects according to the increase in microvessels. In addition, microcurrent treatment to control pain, inflammation, and swelling as a clinical case due to stimulation by forced microcurrent in the human body and microcurrent to flow to the acupuncture point in the obese area to decompose fat cells have been reported. Specifically, it has been reported that collagen synthesis increases and fibroblasts proliferate due to electrical stimulation in fibroblasts.

Another known effect caused by forcibly flowing microcurrent through the human body is preventing hair loss. Microcurrent flows through the scalp, and when the scalp cells are stimulated, the hair follicle cells are stimulated and the blood circulation of the scalp can be improved. As a result, it is reported that nutrition is supplied to the scalp and thus hair loss can be prevented.

The analyzer 140 analyzes the information on a plurality of biosignals stored in the database 130 and measures the biosignal to measure the optimal biosignal with the least or no unmeasured value or missing value among the plurality of biosignals. A first analysis algorithm 141 and a second analysis algorithm 142 are pre-stored to determine the sensor and calculate an electrical stimulation signal to be transmitted to a part of the user's body.

The first analysis algorithm 141 compares a plurality of bio-signals measured from a plurality of bio-signal measuring sensors 100 and measures a bio-signal with relatively few or no unmeasured values or missing values among the plurality of bio-signals.

By comparing the biosignals of the biosignals with relatively few or no unmeasured values or missing values, the first biosignal measurement sensor 100-1 derives a result, so that the bioelectrical signal measurement method 1050a is the optimal biosignal. It can be determined that it is a signal measurement method.

The second analysis algorithm 142 measures the optimal bio-signal for a part of the user's body using the optimal bio-signal measuring method determined by the first analysis algorithm 141, when the bio-signal measuring sensor 100 measures the optimal bio-signal. A simulation is performed in which a plurality of electrical stimulation signals to be generated from the plurality of electrical stimulation methods 1150 are applied to a virtual user's body part, which is the same body part as the user's body part, based on the biosignal, and the plurality of electrical stimulation signals Calculate the waveform according to the amount and period of the microcurrent and the repetition period of electrical stimulation by the microcurrent.

Afterwards, the information obtained by modeling the virtual user's body and applying the average bio-signals of the subjects to each part of the virtual user's body can be transmitted to the database 130 by the information generating unit (not shown).

Accordingly, it is preferable that the second analysis algorithm 142 loads information on a virtual user's body part from the database 130 whenever a simulation is performed.

In addition, since the part of the user's body to which the optimal bio-signal is measured or the electrical stimulation signal is to be transmitted can be changed according to the user's selection, the database 130 already stores virtual user body information identical to all parts of the user's body. it is desirable to be
