Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS) is a revolutionary non-invasive treatment that uses electrical impulses to stimulate muscle contractions, promoting fat reduction and muscle toning. At Minus, we incorporate EMS technology into our body contouring services to help you achieve a firmer, more sculpted physique with minimal effort.
During an EMS session, specialized electrodes are placed on the skin over the targeted muscle groups. The device sends electrical impulses that mimic the natural signals from the brain, causing the muscles to contract and relax. This process not only helps tone and strengthen the muscles but also boosts circulation and aids in the reduction of localized fat deposits.
Benefits of EMS
- Non-Invasive: EMS requires no surgery or downtime, making it a convenient option for busy lifestyles.
- Muscle Toning: Effectively targets and tones muscles, improving overall body shape and firmness.
- Pain-Free Experience: Most patients find EMS treatments to be comfortable and relaxing.
- Boosts Recovery: EMS can enhance blood circulation, promoting faster recovery after workouts.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does EMS work for muscle toning?
EMS works by sending electrical currents to the muscles, which prompts them to contract. These controlled contractions help strengthen, tone, and sculpt muscles, often targeting areas like the abdomen, arms, or thighs.
Is Electrical Muscle Stimulation safe?
Yes, EMS is generally safe when used properly. Side effects are minimal but may include mild muscle soreness, redness, or tingling at the treatment site. It should be administered by trained professionals.
What areas of the body can EMS treat?
EMS can be used on various areas of the body, including the abdomen, thighs, buttocks, arms, and back. It targets specific muscle groups to enhance tone and improve overall body contour.
How long does an EMS session take?
An EMS session typically lasts between 20 to 40 minutes, depending on the area being treated. The treatment is non-invasive and requires no downtime, allowing patients to return to normal activities immediately.
How many EMS sessions are needed for results?
For noticeable results, 4 to 6 sessions are usually recommended, spaced 2–3 days apart. Maintenance sessions may be needed to sustain muscle toning and body contouring results over time.
