Electromagnetic muscle stimulation (EMMS) is a type of technology that uses electromagnetic fields to induce muscle contractions. Unlike traditional electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) which uses electrical currents delivered through electrodes placed on the skin, EMMS utilizes coils to generate a magnetic field that penetrates deeper into the tissue, stimulating muscle contractions wirelessly.

FAQs
Electromagnetic Muscle Stimulation (EMMS) is a non-invasive treatment that uses electromagnetic pulses to stimulate muscle contractions, improving muscle strength, tone, and overall body contour.
EMMS works by emitting electromagnetic pulses that induce powerful muscle contractions, which are beyond what can be achieved through voluntary exercise, leading to increased muscle strength and enhanced toning.
EMMS helps to build muscle mass, improve muscle tone, reduce fat, enhance body contour, and strengthen muscles, all without the need for invasive surgery or lengthy recovery periods.
While EMMS is generally safe for most individuals, it is not recommended for people with pacemakers, metal implants, or specific health conditions. A consultation with a medical professional at Taneet Aesthetic Medicine Clinic is essential to determine if EMMS is right for you.
An EMMS session typically lasts between 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the specific treatment area and the patient’s goals.
The number of sessions required varies based on individual goals. Most clients begin to notice results after 4-6 sessions, with optimal results typically achieved after 8-12 treatments.
There is no downtime after an EMMS session. Patients can resume their regular activities immediately, although some may experience mild muscle soreness, similar to post-exercise sensations.
EMMS is generally not painful, but some patients may experience a tingling or muscle contraction sensation during the treatment. The intensity can be adjusted based on comfort levels.
Before the session, ensure you’re well-hydrated and avoid heavy meals or intense exercise. After treatment, it is recommended to stay hydrated, avoid strenuous activities immediately, and follow any post-care instructions provided by your practitioner for the best results.
