The Benefits of HIEMT Fat Loss and Muscle Gain

As a top-of-the-line body-contouring treatment, High-Intensity Electromagnetic Muscle Training (HIEMT) is a popular choice among both men and women who are looking to firm, tone and lift their body without the use of invasive surgeries. If you are looking for a way to take your body goals to the next level, here are some of the key areas of HIEMT that you should know about.

What is HIEMT?

HIEMT Fat Loss and Muscle Gain is a non-invasive body contouring treatment that uses high-intensity electromagnetic energy to stimulate involuntary muscle contractions. These contractions mimic the effects of an intense workout, leading to increased muscle strength, tone, and definition. HIEMT can be used on several areas of the body, including the abdomen, thighs, buttocks, and arms.

How does HIEMT work?

HIEMT Fat Loss and Muscle Gain works by using electromagnetic waves to stimulate muscle contractions in the targeted area. During a HIEMT treatment session, the patient lies down while an applicator is placed over the targeted area, such as the abdomen, buttocks, or thighs.

The applicator emits high-intensity electromagnetic waves that penetrate through the skin and fat layers to reach the underlying muscles. The electromagnetic waves cause involuntary muscle contractions, which are much stronger and more intense than what can be achieved through voluntary muscle contractions during exercise.

The muscle contractions triggered by the electromagnetic waves are called supramaximal contractions, which means they are stronger than what a person can achieve on their own. These contractions stimulate the muscle tissue and cause it to adapt and grow stronger over time.

As the muscles contract and relax repeatedly, they also release fatty acids and waste products into the bloodstream, which can help to break down fat cells in the targeted area. This process can lead to improved muscle tone and definition, as well as a reduction in fat and an overall improvement in body shape.

HIEMT body sculpting can be used to target specific areas of the body, such as the abdomen, buttocks, or thighs, and can be customised to suit the patient’s individual needs and goals.

What are the benefits of HIEMT?

HIEMT Fat Loss and Muscle Gain is a non-invasive and innovative treatment that uses electromagnetic technology to stimulate muscle contractions in specific areas of the body. HIEMT is designed to help patients in the following areas:

• Muscle building: HIEMT can help to build muscle and increase muscle mass. This can be especially helpful for individuals who struggle to build muscle through traditional exercise or who have lost muscle due to aging or injury.
• Fat reduction: HIEMT can also help to reduce fat in targeted areas of the body. The electromagnetic energy causes muscle contractions, which in turn can help to break down fat cells.
• Improved muscle definition: By building muscle and reducing fat, HIEMT can help to improve muscle definition and create a more toned, sculpted appearance.
• Increased strength: As HIEMT strengthens and builds muscle, it can also increase overall strength and improve athletic performance.
• Non-invasive: Unlike surgical procedures like liposuction or tummy tucks, HIEMT is a non-invasive treatment that does not require incisions, anesthesia, or downtime.

Who is HIEMT suitable for?

HIEMT is a suitable treatment option for individuals who want to tone and define their muscles. It’s an excellent option for those who lead a busy lifestyle and do not have the time to commit to an intense workout routine or can not do so due to physical impairment or injuries. HIEMT is also beneficial for those who have reached a plateau with their regular exercise routine and are looking to take their fitness game to the next level.

How many HIEMT treatments does someone need?

The number of HIEMT treatments required varies depending on the patient’s goals. Generally, patients need between four to six treatments, with each session lasting approximately 30 minutes. Treatments are usually spaced two to three days apart. However, doing the treatment once a week has also been shown to be effective.

Furthermore, certain variables such as your starting weight, muscle tone and how your body responds to treatment, the number of sessions you have and areas treated, all have a contributing factor of how long your HIEMT Body Sculpt and Muscle Gain treatments lasts.

Following the procedure, you can immediately return to your regular activities. It is advisable to not eat an hour prior to your appointment and to wait an hour post treatment before a meal.
During the course of your treatment, increase your water intake and eat food with a high protein content.
