Emsculpt NEO

Emsculpt Neo is best known as the leading non-invasive body contouring device, but a recent innovation and software upgrade enables Emsculpt Neo to treat chronic pain and musculoskeletal conditions. When applied on the affected area, the new Emsculpt Neo Functional Wellness protocol relieves pain, re-educates muscle, increases range of motion, relaxes muscle spasms, and addresses disuse atrophy. 

In general, Emsculpt Neo Functional Wellness is suitable for:

• Anyone seeking to increase flexibility and range of motion
• People fighting age-related muscle deterioration/weakness
• Post-surgery/ post-injury patients
• Athletes suffering from joint and muscle overload
• Patients looking to boost their physical therapy results
• People with chronic musculoskeletal pain

Some of the conditions that Emsculpt Neo Functional Wellness can treat include arthritis, tight or pulled muscles and joint pain and stiffness. In the absence of contraindications, here are a few examples of people we can help:

• A runner who experiences knee or hip pain
• A person with stiff hips because they spend a lot of time sitting in cars and on planes
• Lower back pain
• A person experiencing who has lost muscle mass due to lack of use 

Clinical studies show improvements in tissue, joints, ligaments, and the collagen and elastin around bone structure.

Emsculpt Neo Functional Wellness is only for chronic pain (not acute). Areas we cannot treat include the head, neck, spinal cord, chest, upper back, testes, or areas of the body where there is an electronic or metal implant. 

The Health Canada approval reads, “The Emsculpt NEO is a non-invasive therapeutic device intended for stimulation of neuromuscular tissue and applying therapeutic deep heat. The neuromuscular stimulation results in effects such as: 

• Pain relief
• Relaxation of muscle spasm
• Prevention or retardation of disuse atrophy
• Increasing local blood circulation, and firming and tonisation.”

The FDA has also approved Emsculpt Neo Functional Wellness for muscle re-education, immediate post-surgical stimulation of calf muscles to prevent venous thrombosis, and maintaining or increasing range of motion.

Surgery or injury rehabilitation can be a long and challenging process. Many patients experience significant muscle loss (atrophy) during recovery because they’re unable to use certain parts of their body for weeks, or even years. This makes it even more difficult to regain the muscle tone and function they had before. 

EmSculpt NEO offers a no-impact, no-workout solution to address atrophy and restore lost muscle strength. In just one 30-minute session, it stimulates muscle contractions equivalent to weeks of exercise—all while you relax in one of our treatment rooms. 

EmSculpt NEO doesn’t just address muscle atrophy—it can help prevent it, too! After surgery or an injury, many patients are unable to exercise for extended periods of time, resulting in muscle loss. Once the atrophy happens, it can be even harder to regain strength. 

EmSculpt NEO is a proactive way to maintain muscle strength and function during periods of inactivity—without the need for intense exercise. By keeping your muscles stimulated during the recovery process, it can prevent disuse atrophy before it even happens.

Our muscles naturally deteriorate as we age, an effect commonly known as sarcopenia. Muscle mass decreases about 3-8% each decade after age 30, and this rate is even higher after age 603. 

EmSculpt NEO can help address age-related muscle loss by improving muscle strength and joint function. This can help you feel stronger, maintain mobility, and stay active, so you can continue enjoying the activities you love—no matter what stage of life you’re in.

Muscle spasms are sudden, painful, and unpredictable. Whether it’s a cramp in your calf or tension in your back, they can disrupt your daily life and keep you from participating in your favorite activities. 

EmSculpt NEO relaxes overworked muscles and relieves discomfort through deep, targeted muscle contractions and the application of deep heat. This soothes tightness and reduces spasms so you can move more freely and get back to doing what you love, without interruptions. 

A good range of motion is key for balance, flexibility, physical independence, and can even reduce your risk of injury. EmSculpt NEO helps your body move more efficiently by targeting stiff or weakened areas, making it easier to perform daily tasks and physical activities. In fact, 83% of participants in clinical studies reported improved range of motion after just four EmSculpt NEO sessions! 

Blood flow is one of the most important bodily functions. It helps carry fresh oxygen and essential nutrients to all parts of the body and also plays an active role in waste management. EmSculpt NEO stimulates powerful contractions that boost blood circulation naturally, leading to quicker recovery times, reduced soreness after workouts, and better overall tissue health. 

After surgery, injury, or any period of inactivity, there is often a major risk of venous thrombosis, a condition caused by blood clots. Since EmSculpt NEO helps improve circulation, it can help prevent venous thrombosis and keep your blood flowing healthily.
