High Intensity Focused Electromagnetic Technology (HIFE)
Technology that directly stimulates muscles by utilizing the principles of magnetic stimulation. Creating supramaximal muscle contractions used for toning and strengthening muscular body parts. It allows the body to react to the extreme energy demands of the supramaximal contractions with an extreme catabolic reaction that results in a dramatic release of free fatty acids. Thus, toning and shaping the treatment area.
A painless treatment. With the device strap over the treatment area, the procedure commences with a lower power level and gradually works its way higher that hyper stresses the muscles. Do ensure that your doctor is trained and certified.
You will feel some muscle contractions occur at an internal and vibrations that can reach your core. The first treatment may feel slightly uncomfortable and may get better subsequently. Depending on the machine, the contractions may switch over to a different motion. For example, a tapping motion used to break up the lactic acid.
Expect some muscle soreness as you would after a workout.
Results are usually felt (stronger) right after the first treatment. Visible results may require time and multiple results. Generally, two times a week for two weeks.
To maintain results, typically one treatment every 3-6 months.
A non-invasive FDA-approved treatment with little risk. no serious adverse events have been reported.
However, patients with metal or electronics in their bodies should not proceed as these could interfere with the magnetic waves.
Pregnant moms should avoid this procedure.
