EMS stands for Electro Muscle Stimulation, a scientifically proven technology developed to optimise muscular performance, strength and mass.

EMS has been used for decades in both the medical and rehabilitation fields alongside offering an intelligent training methodology to enhance athletes' sports performance. 

Today EMS has grown in the fitness world, providing a results driven full body workout that helps individuals reach their fitness and aesthetic goals faster and smarter.

How Does EMS-Training Work? 

In traditional training, the brain sends electrical signals via the central nervous system to cause muscles to contract. In EMS training, however, the musculature also receives external electrical impulses Increasing the body’s natural muscle contractions. As a result over 90% of muscle fibres are activated putting more of the muscle to work. Even better there is no stress to joints, ligaments and tendons.

Additionally, EMS reaches deep muscle layers that are difficult to activate during traditional exercise making it a win-win for improving core strength and addressing muscle imbalances. In fact, research has shown EMS can significantly reduce lower back pain alleviating tension and helping to correct muscle in balances.

The result –Expect the unexpected .

The Benefits

Muscle Benefits: EMS increases physical strength, stimulates muscle growth, improves core function, and provides and an intelligent way to improve aesthetics whilst bullet proofing (safeguarding) one’s joints so movement can be executed safely and effectively.

Back pain: Research has shown EMS can significantly reduce lower back pain in as little as 4 sessions and improve posture. In some cases, EMS clients have even reported a total alleviation of their (chronic) back problems.

This is due to EMS ability to target the deeper core muscles often difficult to work when a person is in pain.  Additionally, after the session a further 10 minutes relax setting is applied similar to the popular tens mode to help reduce pain and allow the muscle to relax whilst the client rests.

Balanced workout: Whole body EMS-Training recruits all the body’s large muscle groups simultaneously providing a balanced workout avoiding over working/under working opposing muscle groups which often occurs in traditional workouts. This in turn reduces the risk of injuries in other activities

Joint friendly: EMS allows the user to work at maximal effort by increasing the electrical stimulus to the muscle externally reducing the load on the joints, ligaments and tendons and therefore reducing the risk of injury.

Time efficient: EMS is becoming increasingly popular with those who want to get fit but are time-deprived and don’t wish to spend hours in the gym each week, as well as with those who want to enhance their performance and results.

Rehabilitation: EMS is an invaluable tool in both exercise rehabilitation and prehab helping individuals address muscle imbalances and strengthen weaknesses.

Positive addiction: Once people try it, they are immediately hooked on this time-efficient workout that provides

Muscle recovery: The relax program encourages faster muscle recovery improving blood circulation to evacuate metabolic waste. It also encourages muscle relaxation excellent for those struggling with back pain.

What happens in a typical session?

The user will be provided with base layers that allow for a maximum stimulus. Your then helped into your specially designed EMS suit which the impulses pass through. During the 20-minute session a series of exercises will be performed to voluntarily contract the muscles at the same time as the impulse creating a near total muscle contraction, The intensity of this effect can be controlled through regulation of the electric current itself and the performed exercises.

Each muscle group is controlled individually by adjusting settings on an EMS device making each session completely bespoke to each client. The exercises will be targeted to address your goals and needs.

How long to see the benefits?

With 4 sessions the user will see improvements in posture and feel stronger with a reduction in lower back pain should that be a concern. 

After 10 sessions the user should see and feel significant benefits to strength, body aesthetics and over all well-being. 

Of course, following a healthy lifestyle is imperative as with any form of exercise.
