The treatment is non-invasive, and painless, no radiation and there is no need for a recovery period. A 30min treatment time can stimulate 20,000 strong muscle contractions, which helps strengthen the muscle, increases the growth of myofibrils (muscle enlargement) and can also trigger lipolysis (helps the fat cells to metabolize and breakdown)
Benefits of Building Muscle:
- Improve weight loss/body circumference
