EMS (ELECTRICAL MUSCLE STIMULATION)

 

EMS is a slimming technique that uses pads that are placed on various motor-points to target problem areas.  It uses electrical impulses to cause the muscle to contract.  

The main benefits in slimming and wellness is:

1.  Improves muscle flexibility

2.  Tones, slims and firms

3.  Reduces poor circulation

4. Reduces cellulite.

5.  Removes toxins from the area, improves blood flow to the area and reduces water retention.

6.  It helps faster recovery from sports injuries

7.  It ccan decrease waist circumferance

8.  Improve the reduction of abdominal obesity due to subcutaneous fat masses and therefore reduce body fat percentage.

9.  It can burn calories resulting in a calorie deficit due to the excercising of the muscle.

 

It is not suitable for anyone who has heart or nerve related conditions eg pacemakers or epilepsy or alcoholism.  It is also not suitable if you are pregnant or have cancer or undergoing treatment for cancer.

 

It is recommended to massage the area after your treatment, increase your water intake, cut back on calories to ensure that results are maintained.

 

Some side effects are redness to the skin, where it is applied, or soreness of the muscles as if you have excercised but this differs from person to person.  

 

EMS can be used on it's own or it is most commonly paired with laser lipo and a vibration plate.

ULTRASONIC CAVITATION

 

During an ultrasonic cavitation procedure, non-invasive machines target specific body areas using low-frequency sound waves to burst fat cells, transforming their contents into free fatty acids that are naturally disposed of by the lymphatic system. This process may result in lost cm's on the areas treated.

 

Ultrasonic cavitation does not destroy fat cells; rather, it empties them of their contents, which means the cells are capable of storing fat again.

  1. A balanced diet is the only way to ensure lasting results.
  2. Those who take in more calories than they burn will see their improvement start to decrease over time.
  3. Ultrasonic Cavitation is very effective when combined with other treatments as well. 
  4. On it's own you will see the full benefits after 8-12 sessions depending on the area and how you maintain your diet. 
  5. The exact number of treatments needed will vary due to factors such as age, weight, and the area being treated. Each treatment should take about 20-30 minutes. 

Results can vary greatly from patient to patient. However, you should see:

  • Reduced circumference in the treated area (due to fat-cell release)

  • An overall contoured appearance 

 

WHO CANNOT USE ULTRASONIC CAVITATION?

1.  Unfortuanately the only way to physically change your shape is to do surgery.  Cavitation will help reduce pockets of fat and help contour the body but it will not change your bone or muscle structure.   So our genetics determine our shape and where the fat is stored on the body.  

2.  You can use cavitation on cellulite that has just started and it works extremely well for more severe cellulite that has progressed when combined with the G5 machine.

3.  This treatment is not suitable if you are pregnant.

RADIO FREQUENCY

 

Radio Frequency Technology is used to lift and tighten the skin. The frequency penetrates the epidermis and heats the dermis. In response the collagen, fibres begin contracting and remodelling, effectively thickening and leading to immediate results. Additional collagen fibres synthesis occurs due to the healing process of the skin, induced by the heat. Over time this will continue, gradually improving the quality of your skin and a decrease in deep wrinkles. 

 

Ultrasonic Cavitation and Radio Frequency are often used together and with other slimming treatments and can be used on:

Upper and Lower Abdomen, Hips, Love Handles/Flanks, Inner and Outer Thighs, Upper Arms/Bingo Wings, Bra and Backs Rolls, Buttocks, Baby Bulges and can also be used areas as small as the chins and knees.

 

This treatment can be used to reduce "man boobs" but cannot be used to treat female breast tissue or Gynecomastia.  

 

On the day of your ultrasonic cavitation and radio frequency treatment do not consume any alcohol, fizzy drinks or caffeine. Avoid heavy meals immediately before and after treatment. We recommend drinking 6-8 glasses of water per day during your course of cavitation and radio frequency treatments. 

 

Each session is around 30 min per area, with a maximum of one hour. Treating multiple areas is NOT advisable as the body has to work hard to remove the excess fat that is now passing through the Lymphatic system to the liver and may also not be effective. Follow the rule, of one area, one treatment every 72 hours and you will see better results. 

 

Most clients found the treatment to be very comfortable and trouble-free. With Cavitation you may hear the ultrasonic soundwaves and the radio frequency works with heat.

What are the benefits Ultrasonic Cavitation & Radio Frequency Body Contouring?

  • All of these treatments are temporary and need to be maintained to keep results.

  • Improves & Tightens Sagging Skin 

  • Clinically Proven Results 

  • No Need For Anaesthesia/Sedation 

  • No Incisions 

  • No Risk of Infection Unlike Surgical Procedures 

  • Safe & Pain Free 

  • No Downtime 

  • Results Can Be Seen After Just One Treatment. 

When Are Results Visible? 

Ultrasonic Cavitation 

This type of therapy targets and destroys subcutaneous fat cells in the fat cell membranes through a series of microscopic implosions.  So the membrane implodes so that the fat is excreted.   Clients experience a reduction ofl cm in circumference from 4-12 cm.  However, this is temporary as the fat cell does not die.  Diet plays a very important role in maintaining results.

 

Radio Frequency 

Controlled collagen heating produces immediate collagen contraction, so some results will be seen immediately post treatment. The subsequent repair and remodelling of this deep collagen produces continuing effect over the next 3- 6 months.  Repeated treatments are needed to keep it at the same level of improvement.

 

How Long Do Results Last? 

To maintain the results it is important to follow a healthy low calorie diet and exercise regularly. It is also important to drink 8 glasses of water a day before and after the treatment. Fat elimination is accelerated by the amount of water your drink therefore, therefore water is key component to eliminating the fat.   If at any stage you do  over-induldge then the fat cells will take up some of the fat from your diet and cm loss will reverse out.

 

You will be unsuitable for Ultrasonic Cavitation & Radio Frequency treatments if you have any of the following: 

  • Cancer 

  • Liver problems 

  • Kidney or pancreatic problems 

  • Pregnancy or suspected pregnancy or baby nursing women 

  • Severe hypertension, hyperlipidaemia, diabetes mellitus & poor circulation in blood & lymph 

  • Gall stones or problems handling a fatty diet 

  • Untreated High cholesterol or hypertriglyceridemia 

  • Implanted devices (e.g. pacemaker) 

  • Artificial hips and bone 

  • Not eating a healthy diet, or reducing your calorie intake or avoiding the food causing the pocket of fat.  

  • Any form of regular exercise 

LASER LIPO

A technician places pads, equipped with laser diodes directly onto the skin. The laser energy penetrates down to the fat cells and creates tiny holes in their membranes.

 

This causes the fat cells to release their stored fatty acids, glycerol, and water into the body and then shrink, potentially resulting in lost inches.

The body then flushes out the expelled fat-cell contents via the lymphatic system or burns them for energy. 

 

The diodes do not give off any heat or any vibration but instead use low level laser to penetrate the cell. There is no sensations or any heat.

The procedure isn't  for extensive weight loss.

 

It might be right for you if you're:

  • If you only want a temporary change to an area for a special occasion which is soon after the end of your sessions.

  • If you are already eating healthy food and keep up the diet then the result will be more permanent.

  • More concerned with "problem areas" than total-body weight loss

  • In good health with good skin elasticity

Though some clients begin to notice results after only a few sessions, most require up to 10 treatments to see maximum results.

Frequency

Two treatments per week for four weeks are recommended.

Downtime

Because the treatment is not invasive, no downtime is required.

The most common treatment areas include:

Abdomen

Waistline

Thighs

Arms

Under the chin

HOW LONG DO LASER LIPO RESULTS LAST?

  1. Because Laser Lipo does NOT destroy fat cells but rather empties them of their contents, the fat cells are capable of storing fat again so they can reverse out quickly if you go back to your old diet.
  2. A  healthy diet is the only way to ensure lasting results.
  3. "When you're at home, we want you to make some good dietary choices,"
  4. "[Eat] lean protein. Stay away from alcoholic beverages and sugar."
  5. Those who take in more calories than they burn will see their improvement start to decrease or will not see the results they want during the treatment.

 

✔Before any treatments please refrain from eating a large meal and AVOID caffeine and alcohol at least 3 hours before.
✔Shower before treatments and make sure no cream or perfumed products have been applied to the skin for at least 24 hours before.

 

Laser Lipo works best when paired with EMS and a vibration plate afterwards.  

 

A vibration plate is indicated on my price list as part of the session.

 

I very seldom recommend any use this machine as results are very poor and do not remain for any length of time afterwards.  I have records of client's who insisted on using this machine and you can see how low the cm loss is and you need to do many sessions.

 

INFRARED SAUNA BLANKET

 

There are numerous health benefits to a infrared sauna blanket including, weight-loss, muscle tension relief, detoxification, increased metabolism, and a stronger immune system. The controlled, timed heat, will cause the body to sweat and release toxins. The result is a loss of that excess body fat through shrinking of fat cells.

 

Proven to being one of our most popular treatments, the sauna blanklet is beneficial when combined with other slimming treatments but works perfectly well as a treatment on it's own.

 

Is far-infrared safe? Absolutely. The beauty of our far-infrared heaters is that they only produce far infrared and not the entire spectrum of the suns rays which can be harmful. Essentially you get the healing benefits of the sun, but without all the potential hazards of the full spectrum

 

What are the benefits of Far Infrared Sauna? Far Infrared benefits are immediate and amazing!  

 

BEFORE TREATMENT: Cells are clumped together are not able to move freely or oxygenate correctly, indicating health problems.

AFTER TREATMENT: Cells are perfectly round in shape, separated and free from each other indicating healthy body.

G5 Massage is a mechanical massager that goes much deeper than the therapist can. Different heads are used to mimic different massage techniques. The massage head is driven to turn in gyratory motions, moving round and round, up and down and side to side with pressure, providing a deep massage.

 

ntroducing the many benefits of the G5 Machine

♦ Reduces Cellulite.

♦ Lymphatic Drainage

♦ Improves & Increases Circulation and blood supply to the area.

♦ Drains Excess Tissue Fluid, Waste & Toxins.

Promotes relaxation and better sleep

It is a wonderful accompaniment for weight loss programmes or in the head up to a big event eg. wedding,

 

According to my opinion is one of the best machines on the market with long lasting results.

 

The G5 machine is similar to a high intense lymphatic massage; it works on breaking down fatty deposits, cellulite and dispersing this with excess fluid through the lymphatic areas. This process allows an instant inch loss and detox affects, as well as improvement in skin elasticity, collagen flow and blood circulation
