The Computer Aided Cosmetology Instrument, or CACI , was developed by a Californian doctor, Thomas Wing, for the treatment of soft tissue injuries such as whiplash and sprains, as well as for pain relief.The CACI machine uses a micro current applied to the skin through two cotton tipped wands to activate the electric synapses in the muscles, stimulating and re-educating the fibres and restoring the muscles themselves CACI soon gained huge popularity in medical clinics in Britain and America, and was introduced to New Zealand in 1994. The rest is, as they say, history. David and Jackie Smith started their first clinic in Newmarket with a few machines and staff trained by an overseas therapist. And, as Jackie points out, the beauty industry had never seen anything like it before. The Clinic went from strength to strength and soon had a growing client list.
