  • No, most clients experience a tingling sensation and intense muscle contractions but no pain. The intensity of the electrical impulses can be adjusted to your comfort level.

  • Typically, each session lasts about 20-30 minutes, depending on the targeted area and specific treatment plan.

  • Results can vary, but most individuals see noticeable improvements after 6-10 sessions, with sessions spaced 1-2 weeks apart.

  • There is no downtime required. You can return to your normal activities immediately after a session.

  • Results can be long-lasting with a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise and a balanced diet.

  • Some individuals might experience mild redness or soreness in the treated area, similar to post-exercise muscle fatigue, but serious side effects are rare.

  • Some certain conditions and circumstances may disqualify someone from being a suitable candidate for EMS body sculpting. We'll discuss all of these during your intake session to ensure the safety and well-being of individuals interested in this treatment.

    Here are some common disqualifiers:

    • Pregnancy: EMS body sculpting is not recommended for pregnant women due to the lack of research on its effects on fetal development.

    • Cardiac Conditions: Individuals with heart problems, including those with pacemakers or other implanted electronic devices, should avoid EMS, as the electrical impulses could interfere with these devices.

    • Severe Neurological Disorders: People with conditions like epilepsy or severe neurological disorders might be at increased risk during EMS sessions.

    • Metal Implants: If you have metal implants near the treatment area, EMS may not be suitable due to potential interactions between the electrical currents and the metal.

    • Skin Conditions: Open wounds, severe ache, or other skin conditions in the area to be treated might be exacerbated by EMS.

    • Acute Illnesses: Conditions like fever, severe systemic infections, or acute inflammatory processes can be contraindications.

    • Thrombosis and Severe Circulatory Disorders: EMS can potentially exacerbate these conditions.

    • Cancer: Patients with cancer or a history of cancer should consult with their doctor before considering EMS
      body sculpting.
