Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block]
USE OF ESTIMATES

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and, accordingly, require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities.  Significant estimates made by management include expected economic life and value of our medical devices, reserves, deferred tax assets, valuation allowance, impairment of long lived assets, fair value of equity instruments issued to consultants for services and fair value of equity instruments issued to others, option and warrant expenses related to compensation to employees and directors, consultants and investment banks, allowance for doubtful accounts, and warranty reserves. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments, Policy [Policy Text Block]
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

For certain of our financial instruments, including accounts receivable, inventories, accounts payable, accrued expenses and notes payable - other, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their relatively short maturities.
Cash and Cash Equivalents, Policy [Policy Text Block]
CASH AND EQUIVALENTS

Cash equivalents are comprised of certain highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased. We maintain our cash in bank deposit accounts, which at times, may exceed federally insured limits. We have not experienced any losses to date as a result of this policy.
Revenue Recognition, Policy [Policy Text Block]
REVENUE RECOGNITION

CHEMICAL PRODUCTS:

Revenues are recognized when products are shipped to end users. Shipments to distributors are recognized as sales where no right of return exists.

ELECTRONICS:

We recognize revenue from the sale of our electronic products when they are shipped to the purchaser.  Shipping and handling charges and costs have been de minimis. We offer a limited 90 day warranty on our electronics products and a limited 5 year warranty on our electronic controllers for spas and hot tubs. Historically, the amount of warranty revenue included in the sales of our electronic products has been de minimis. We have no other post shipment obligations and sales returns have been de minimis. Based on prior experience, no amounts have been accrued for potential warranty costs and such costs were less than $500, for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011.

ENGINEERING SERVICES:

Pursuant to a Master Services Agreement with Ivivi Health Sciences, LLC (IHS), ADM provides engineering services, including quality control and quality assurance services along with regulatory compliance services, warehouse fulfillment services and network administration services including hardware and software services. Under the terms of the Agreement, the Company agrees to serve as the exclusive manufacturer of all current and future medical and non-medical electronic devices or products sold or rented by IHS.
Research and Development Expense, Policy [Policy Text Block]
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS

Research and development costs consist of expenditures for the research and development of patents and technology which are not capitalizable. Our research and development costs consist mainly of labor costs in developing new products
Guarantees, Indemnifications and Warranties Policies [Policy Text Block]
WARRANTY LIABILITIES

The Company’s provision for estimated future warranty costs is based upon historical relationship of warranty claims to sales. Based upon historical experience, the Company has concluded that no warranty liability is required as of the balance sheet dates. However, the Company periodically reviews the adequacy of its product warranties and will record an accrued warranty reserve if necessary.
Cash and Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash and Cash Equivalents, Policy [Policy Text Block]
RESTRICTED CASH

Restricted cash represents funds on deposit with a financial institution that secure the bank note payable
Earnings Per Share, Policy [Policy Text Block]
NET LOSS PER SHARE

The Company computes basic loss per share by dividing the Company's net loss for the period by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share excludes potential common shares if the effect is anti-dilutive. Diluted loss per share is determined in the same manner as basic loss per share except that the number of shares is increased assuming exercise of dilutive stock options and warrants using the treasury stock method. As the Company had a net loss for all periods presented, the impact of the assumed exercise of the stock options is anti-dilutive and as such, these amounts have been excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share. For the three and nine month periods ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, there were no common stock equivalent shares
New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block]
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncement, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
