What is EMS?
The electromagnetic Muscular Stimulation(EMS)machine is a high-intensity electromagnetic technology device for muscle training and modeling, inducing muscle contractions and promoting muscle growth and fat breakdown.
What we offer in the studio is what we call Body Sculpt+RF. This is not like the standard EMS system that some of us are familiar with. Our EMS system contracts muscles through High Frequency Magnetic Fields & NOT with electricity. Our Body Sculpt+RF has an advantage over the traditional EMS system; the magnetic field engages the muscle much more & offers skin firming priorities. The standard electro-stimulation only works superficially.
The Body Sculpt+RF is primarily used to expand and induce muscle contractions. Our EMS trains and deeply models the internal structure of your muscles and increases muscle density and volume. This makes your body’s muscles think you are having an intense workout session and helps with significant fat loss, skin firming, and muscle enhancement WITHOUT surgery.
What does the EMS Body Sculpt+RF do?
The EMS machine uses 2 kinds of technologies to operate; High Frequency Magnetic Technology & Radio Frequency Technology.
High frequency magnetic technology is used more to target muscle sculpting, while radio frequency is helping your body produce more of its natural collagen and elastin levels, which will later result in skin firming.
With High Frequency Magnetic Technology, the EMS is able to stimulate muscles through intensive work. Your body is consuming energy from the machine through local fat tissue which causes that contraction feeling. The EMS repeats this contract & release process for about 20-40 minutes (depending on what muscle area you are working on).
Radio Frequency Technology is used by the EMS to send radio-waves to your skin fibers through an “overheating” effect. This helps rebuild your skin fibers and helps your body produce more collagen and elastin which helps with the results of tighter and smoother looking skin. The Radio Frequency’s overheating effect helps support the burning of local fat tissue because fat cells are VERY sensitive to high temperatures.
We recommend not to use both infrared & radiofrequency (EMS) the same day. Both technologies heat up strongly and can cause slight inflammation; It is best to wait about 24hrs or until symptoms subside to book a InfraRed Fitness Session.
What to expect as a first time client:
Before starting any session with the EMS, we go over a list of contraindications and make sure you are ready for the session and or if you have a doctors note letting us know that you are ok to work on.We will then go over the areas the client is interested in treating and give them an idea of how many sessions will be needed to get their desired results. [Insert link to contraindications]. We make sure to communicate with our clients through the whole session making sure your experience is comfortable and pain free.
Our skin and bodies take time to adapt & adjust especially to something of newer technology. We have to introduce ourselves to the EMS slowly, learn our boundaries and then within time and consistency we will see results from using the EMS.
During treatment, clients should be able to feel the technology, not to an extent where the client is in pain, but enough to feel it working
EMS Intensity
When working on a new client, we always start at level 0 and then work slowly to move up the intensity level according to how the client is feeling. This is why communicating with clients throughout the session is our biggest priority. Some may feel as if during the session that there should be some pain, but what some don’t understand about our EMS BodySculp+RF is that the session is pain free. We consistently check in with clients to make sure they are feeling ok with the level of intensity. Your comfort is our priority.
After treatment Care
After introducing clients to the EMS Body Sculpt+RF, we make sure to connect with them a day or two afterwards to check-in on how they are feeling, if they are sore, and even book the next session. If the client is happy with the results, we make sure that for the next appointment we up the intensity on the machine this way we finish within the period of sessions booked .
