Electromagnetic muscle sculpting, or EMS sculpt, is the first FDA-cleared energy device approved to burn fat and build muscle mass. EMS sculpt contracts muscles beyond what is possible through voluntary effort, yielding better muscle tone and enhanced fat reduction. The process works by directing highly focused electromagnetic energy to the area, forcing the muscles to contract to 100% and holding it there for up to six seconds. The average person, no matter how strong, can only contract their muscles to their 30-35% capacity for a fraction of a second. In response to these contractions, the muscle reconstructs itself, and fat cells in the area are eliminated. A 30-minute treatment is equivalent to 20,000 sit ups or squats. It is the only procedure to help both women and men build muscle and burn fat to sculpt their bodies. EMS sculpt has been clinically tested for safety and efficacy through US-based clinical studies. On average, the following results were achieved in clinical studies on healthy patients after 4-6 treatments:
EMS Sculpt
Reduction of Fat
Lost in Waistline
Increased Muscle Mass
Increase in Fat Metabolism
Visible Lifting Effect of Buttocks
Reduction in Abdominal Muscle Separation
Satisfaction
TREATMENTS
Four to six 30- minute treatments, performed at least 2 days apart, are recommended for best results, though more treatments can improve the area further. EMS sculpt is non-invasive and requires no recovery time or any pre/post treatment preparation or downtime. EMS sculpt does not cause pain or discomfort. Clients say they feel a “pulling” sensation. The treatment intensity can be adjusted at a level that is tolerable.
(Note: Due to the noise level of the machine, our EMS treatments are performed offsite, 1.5 miles away in the community of Civita)
You will begin to feel results immediately after EMS sculpt. There will be small changes, like posture improvements and decreased fatigue during exercise. The muscles treated will feel stronger with each treatment, with increased muscle mass resulting about 2-4 weeks after the 4 treatment series. Improvement of the overlying fat is appreciable by about 3 months after the series is completed. Clinical studies have shown that results can continue to improve for up to six months.
EMS can be used to treat these areas:
Abdomen
Buttocks
Triceps/Biceps
Thighs/Calves
HOW LONG WILL THE RESULTS LAST?
While the increase in muscle mass will last about a year, it is still technically not permanent if you do not continue a good workout regimen. What helps with this is completing a “maintenance session” after the initial full treatment package. Following up your initial treatment of EMS sculpt with a maintenance session every 3 – 6 months will help maintain the gains in muscle-tone much longer. A commitment to physical fitness and wellness will further maintain the results from your EMS sculpt treatments. The fat loss in the abdomen area is thought to be long term due to fat cell destruction.
