EMSculpt

EMSculpt is a non-invasive muscle-toning treatment, most often used on the abdomen and buttocks. A paddle placed over the area delivers focused electromagnetic energy that causes the underlying muscles to contract fully and hold for several seconds at a time, in a way that is difficult to achieve through voluntary exercise alone.

Over a 30-minute session the muscles are put through thousands of these contractions. The aim is to strengthen and tone the muscle in the treated area; many clients also use it alongside their training to complement the work they are already doing.

There is no preparation and no special aftercare, and most people go straight back to their day. You may feel some mild soreness or tiredness in the muscles afterwards, similar to a workout but generally much milder. Most people find the treatment itself comfortable: it feels like a strong pulling sensation, and your therapist controls the intensity throughout.

A course of six sessions is recommended, usually spaced two or three days apart. Results vary and are best maintained with regular exercise.
