Myostimulation is called " passive fitness" The contraction of muscle fibers caused by impulses improves metabolism and blood circulation, tones the vascular system, and removes toxins and fluid from subcutaneous fat. Fat deposits are broken down, cellulite disappears, and the figure takes on an attractive shape. Myolifting for the face tightens the skin and restores its youth. The technique has no competitors in terms of efficiency, accessibility and ease of use.
Benefits of the procedure
From myostimulation the body receives general health effect:

- Strengthening the walls of blood vessels and dilating, improving blood circulation, stimulating the heart.
- Increased muscle tone.
- If there is no load on the musculoskeletal system, there is no risk of injury.
- Removing waste and toxins from the body, increasing the outflow of lymph from the intercellular space.
- Improved metabolism.
- Alignment of hormonal levels and nervous system functioning.
Myostimulation will be useful for general muscle sagging, cellulite and excess weight, as well as for venous-lymphatic insufficiency.
Contraindications to myostimulation
In some cases, undergoing the procedure is strictly prohibited. Main contraindications are:

- diseases of the cardiovascular system, presence of a pacemaker;
- diseases of the circulatory system, thrombophlebitis;
- colds, viral diseases, infections, tuberculosis;
- gastrointestinal diseases, urolithiasis and cholelithiasis;
- mental disorders, epilepsy, alcohol and drug addiction, stroke;
- bone fractures in impact areas;
- hypersensitivity to current impulses;
- renal and liver failure;
- hernia, purulent diseases, malignant tumors;
- neoplasms in the mammary glands, mastopathy.
Do not place electrodes on the throat, sides of the neck, areas with open wounds, inflammation, or marks from surgical operations for 9 months after the intervention. Before starting the course, especially at home, be sure to consult your doctor and strictly follow his recommendations!
Myostimulation at home
You can also undergo the procedure at home; all you need to do is purchase a special device. Low-power devices with minimal settings are suitable for home use. Such muscle stimulators already have a built-in program that does not need adjustment.
![](https://i2.wp.com/davajpohudeem.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/%D0%9C%D0%B8%D0%BE%D1%81%D1%82%D0%B8%D0%BC%D1%83%D0%BB%D1%8F%D1%86%D0%B8%D1%8F-11.jpg)
Also keep in mind that the currently popular low-power, battery-powered butterfly devices used for weight loss may not achieve the expected effect, but they still have an overall health benefit.
For those who want to get the best and in the shortest possible time, it is better to purchase professional equipment ESMA or go to a medical center that has similar equipment. These devices have 12 channels and the ability to connect up to 48 electrodes. Output current up to 55 amperes.
Professional lymphatic drainage and lifting procedures. Drift functions to reduce current addiction. Policy for changing polarity during the procedure. You can also create an individual program by setting any frequencies and simulating the operation of such devices as: Chance, Mustang cosmetologist.
If ESMA is too expensive for you. Still, we recommend choosing devices that have at least 4 channels and operate from the network.

- Don't eat food in 1.5 hours before the beginning.
- On the day of your session, do not eat foods high in protein.
- During the procedure, the body loses a lot of fluid, which will need to be replenished with water, juices and herbal teas. Drink at least 2-3 liters in a day.
- The myostimulation procedure will be effective if it is combined with a healthy lifestyle, individually selected diet and physical activity.
- A set of additional procedures will give a good result: ultrasound therapy, mesotherapy, etc.
- Before starting the course and during the first sessions, it is necessary to peel the areas on which the electrodes are installed - the keratinized upper layers of the epidermis impair the passage of electrical impulses.
- Avoid eating for 2 hours after the session. You can eat and drink.
Before undergoing the procedure at home, consult your doctor. It will help identify the most problematic areas, and will also give you a map of points on the body to which electrodes should be attached. Purchase a contact gel that is used to lubricate the electrodes to allow current to pass through. After the session, wrap or apply anti-cellulite cream to the affected areas.
First results noticeable from 2-3 times. For best results, it is necessary to conduct at least 10–15 sessions at least 2 times a month. The procedure lasts 30–40 minutes. Average cost of body myostimulation – 25 dollars.
Myostimulation - reviews
After pregnancy I went through it in combination with training and diet. The effect is good. By the way, you can also rent them. But if you buy - only professional, at least 10 electrodes, no “butterflies”. And it’s better to go to a salon at least once before using it at home and see how to use it correctly. I also recommend increasing the power each time.Marina
And I did myostimulation to correct my figure. I am very pleased with the result. But it seems to me that it is better to do it only with professionals and on professional equipment.
Valentina
I went to sessions several times, even before pregnancy. The butt rose, the stomach retracted. Even sports trainers visit myo; you can’t achieve such an effect with training alone - it’s impossible to give such a load. I want to buy a home myostimulator after giving birth.

Video about myostimulation
From the presented video you will learn everything about the procedure and its principle of operation. The doctor will demonstrate how the myostimulator works using the example of the gluteus maximus muscles. You will learn about the stages of the procedure, recommendations and contraindications.
Myostimulation has long established itself as one of the most effective and affordable weight loss techniques. The procedure itself keeps muscles toned, relaxes and heals, and when combined with a healthy and active lifestyle, it really works wonders!
Manufacturers of the myostimulator claim that with its help you can remove extra pounds without grueling diets and exercises. The device, simulating signals from the central nervous system, has a beneficial effect on the muscles in certain areas of the body where the sensors are located, as a result of which they begin to work. Let's take a closer look at what benefits the use of the device brings and whether there is any harm from it.
What is a myostimulator, types and purpose of the device
This is a medical device with which you can perform myostimulation. It is expressed in the fact that a person is exposed to current pulses with different frequencies. Other procedures can be performed using this device.
It all depends on the frequency and strength with which the current will affect a person. This determines the effect the device provides.
Myostimulators are:
- Wireless. You can wear them throughout the day. They operate on batteries, and therefore cannot have a strong effect on tissues and break down fat. The effect of their use is negligible.
- Stationary. Consist of a power supply, control center and sensors. May be professional or semi-professional. Effectively affects fat cells and breaks them down. With the help of such devices, you can quite successfully correct your figure.
The benefits of myostimulator and myostimulation for the body
When used correctly, the device can effectively treat:
- CNS lesions;
- enuresis;
- joint pathologies;
- vascular diseases;
- bedsores;
- scoliosis.
The myostimulator is often used to prevent the appearance of edema, for fractures, sprains and bruises. With myostimulation, the rehabilitation period is shortened and pain disappears. The effectiveness of the device in treating the gastrointestinal tract, normalizing blood flow and muscle tone has been proven.
The device will help muscles quickly recover after stress on the body. The maximum effect will be when a professional device is used and the external devices are accurately distributed on the body. The procedure should be performed by an experienced doctor, a physiotherapist.
You should not use myostimulators on your own, as negative reactions may occur, for example, irritation and burns of the skin at the site where the electrodes are installed, discomfort during use of the device or after the procedure.
Figure correction
With this procedure, a myostimulator improves muscle tone. A special program is used for this. The device emits waves in a specific sequence and combination. First, a relaxation program is carried out, during which the cells are warmed up, and then lymphatic drainage.
Often after such procedures, the skin at the site where the electrodes are installed does not look its best. Here you will need to tighten it. This manipulation is also performed using a myostimulator.
Fat removal
This procedure, unfortunately, cannot completely remove subcutaneous fat and create an athletic figure. The device only stimulates the muscles and prevents them from atrophying.
Lift
The device is capable of tightening the skin on the face and chin. It also reduces the depth of wrinkles. The impulses released by the device warm the tissues and stimulate their contraction.
When using a myostimulator, a person needs to make a minimum of effort. The procedures are easily performed using professional devices.
Harm and side effects
If portable devices are used incorrectly and for a long time, they can cause harm. In this case, stationary devices can become killers. When the heart is in the path of current flow, it can cause it to stop.
It is worth refusing to use cheap models of myostimulators. Poor-quality manufacturing materials lead to skin damage at the site where the electrodes are installed. Incorrect programs emit harmful impulses that will negatively affect the functioning of organs and cause exacerbation of chronic pathologies or the formation of tumors.
Problems usually arise when used by those who purchased a myostimulator for private use on the open market without a certificate. If used incorrectly, portable devices may not produce any results or cause complications. Therefore, for those who do not have experience with such a device, it is better not to use it.
Contraindications
These devices have their contraindications. Therefore, before starting to use them, you should consult your doctor. The most common contraindications:
- myocardial diseases;
- pregnancy;
- stones in the kidneys;
- chronic alcoholism;
- mental disorders;
- oncology;
- inflammatory processes;
- pathologies of the endocrine system;
- tuberculosis;
- increased sensitivity of the body to the impulses of the device;
- thrombophlebitis;
- circulatory disorders;
- hernia;
- epilepsy.
You should stop using a myostimulator if you have a pacemaker in your body.
Electrodes should not be placed in the groin area. The device can increase blood flow to the pelvic organs. Severe consequences may occur.
Before using the device during lactation, you should also consult your doctor. After a stroke, to restore limb function, it is recommended to use myostimulation only as prescribed by a specialist.
When using the device yourself, you need to know simple rules:
- Skin contact with the electrodes should be tight.
- The duration of the session is no more than 30 minutes.
- There should be no contraindications.
- 1 hour before the procedure you do not need to eat.
What are the benefits of using a myostimulator, and what are the dangers? Let's find out the whole truth about myostimulators from a video from Vladimir Molodov:
It is worth noting that this device can have a positive effect on the body if used correctly with the participation of a specialist. Otherwise, the myostimulator will become dangerous for a person and can lead to his death. The first sessions should be carried out under the supervision of a doctor.

Do you dream of an ideal body, but laziness takes over? Do you plan a morning run every evening, but every time you put off your “marathon” until later? Fortunately, a “magic” procedure has long been invented that allows you to achieve beautiful shapes without effort. Meet gymnastics for the lazy - myostimulation! What is it, what problems does the hardware method cope with, what are its pros and cons - read about this and more in our article.
What is myostimulation?
This is a cosmetic procedure based on the effects of electrical impulses. Mini “discharges” put stress on certain muscle groups, thereby “training” them while you rest quietly on the couch. In addition, the device uses hard-to-reach muscle fibers, which cannot be achieved with regular physical activity in the gym, no matter how hard you try. Agree, it’s not a procedure, but a dream!
Previously, it was used for the rehabilitation of paralyzed and weakened patients after a long illness in order to prevent muscle atrophy. Later, astronauts became interested in the technique and began to actively use it after a long stay in weightlessness (to restore muscles and make up for weight loss).
And today myostimulation can be done in almost any beauty salon or clinic. Why is she so popular? Girls love her for the opportunity to correct problem areas of the body without unnecessary body movements. For the stronger half, overall muscle tone is important, which can be achieved through myostimulation of the body.
How does the procedure work?
Myostimulation is carried out using a special device - an electric myostimulator. Electrodes are attached to problem areas of the body (abdomen, thighs, buttocks, arms, etc.), to which the device sends electrical impulses (5 mA for the face, up to 100 mA for the body). “Meeting” the desired muscle, the impulse causes it to actively contract - the strength of such a contraction directly depends on the strength of the discharge (don’t worry, if you experience unpleasant sensations in the first couple of sessions, they will go away by the 3rd procedure).
Simply put, during such “gymnastics for the lazy,” your muscles work as if you were doing physical exercise. But there is one difference! Myostimulation involves those fibers that are difficult or even impossible to “pump up” with exercises.
![](https://i0.wp.com/stat5.cdnbb8.com/upload/2012/2018-04/mio11.jpg)
Let's give a small example. You want to strengthen your chest muscles to make your bust look more lifted (and fuller, to be sure), but you don't want to bulk up your arms and shoulders. Or you dream of tightening your buttocks and giving them shape, but you don’t have the opportunity to squat with a barbell (problems with your knees and back interfere, or simply “it’s not a woman’s job to lift iron”). Then all of the above can be done using myostimulation. And although you won’t achieve large muscle volumes with this procedure, you will certainly ensure tone, fit and elasticity to your “forms”!
How often should myostimulation sessions be performed?
Procedures should be carried out about 2-3 times a week for 20-30 minutes. In some cases, it is allowed to undergo “gymnastics for the lazy” every day (as prescribed by a specialist). On average, a myostimulation course consists of 5-10 sessions. In the future, maintenance procedures may be prescribed at intervals of 1-2 months.

What to do before and after myostimulation?
In order for the procedure to bring maximum results, and for the effect to last for many months (or even years), you should take into account the following recommendations.
- It is recommended to consult a doctor before undergoing the procedure. He will assess your condition, select the individual strength and frequency of the impulse, and also advise how many sessions you need to attend.
- Immediately before myostimulation, you should take a shower (to wash off the layer of cream or sebum), and also exfoliate to eliminate dead cells. Through clean and purified skin, electrical impulses better penetrate the muscles.
- What you should not do before the procedure is visit a solarium, overeat, drink too much liquid, and get vaccinated. It is imperative to remove all metal jewelry: bracelets, earrings, chains, piercings, etc.).
![](https://i1.wp.com/stat1.cdnbb8.com/upload/2012/2018-04/mio13.jpg)
- No special care is required for problem areas after myostimulation. In order to consolidate the effect, it would be a good idea to balance your diet and introduce healthy foods rich in vitamins, minerals and protein.
- It is worth adding physical activity to your life to make your body even more beautiful and sculpted.

What it is
Myostimulation (also called electrical stimulation) is a procedure similar to body iontophoresis. Like the techniques described, electromyostimulation causes certain areas of the body (in this case, muscle tissue) to contract under the influence of electric current. Using electrodes, various devices are connected to the body - they come in different types and types of action.
All tissues in nature consist of individual particles, the human body is no exception. Under the influence of current, neurons contract, which contributes to involuntary muscle contraction. Even with this action, they can not only improve their tone, but also ensure effective disposal of excess fat. A remarkable feature of body myostimulation is that it is beneficial not only for muscles, but also for the skin. Due to the fact that the current heats the tissues to some extent, they experience improved blood supply.
This treatment procedure has the following characteristics:
- Pulses can be of different lengths. Depending on the problem and application of the electrodes, they vary from 0.5 to 300 m/s. This is enough to achieve the desired cosmetic or therapeutic effect;
- The most important parameter for improving muscle tone in electromyostimulation is the current strength. Each doctor sets it up individually. If it is too strong, then an accident may occur; if it is insufficient, then there will be no effect. The following parameters are considered optimal: for the skin and muscles of the face 5 mA, and for the body (abdomen, thighs, arms) - 100. It should be noted that currents of more than 100 milliamps are hazardous to health;
- An equally important indicator is the pulse frequency. It varies from 10 to 150 Hertz, and is also determined only after medical consultation;
- Depending on the location of application and the type of problem, specialists may use various forms of impulses. They there are three types: rectangular (ideal for working on large areas), neuron-like - the most gentle signals, triangular - impulses that are used to restore small areas of the body.
Each body is completely individual, therefore, to determine how often you can perform body myostimulation, you need to consult your doctor. The optimal frequency is once every two days.
Benefits and contraindications
Reviews and photos before and after myostimulation are the most positive. The effect is noticeable after just a couple of sessions. According to doctors, the optimal number of procedures will be up to 15. This is quite enough to restore shape and significant weight loss in problem areas.
Advantages:
- Significant increase in muscle tone and elasticity. What is unique about this technique is that excellent results occur even if the girl has never been involved in physical activity at all;
- After electrical exposure, the operation of many systems is normalized. Including endocrine and excretory. The body is quickly cleansed of toxins and waste, the process of losing weight occurs much faster than when following a diet;
- All devices are equipped with an electroporation system. This technique is used in many anti-cellulite centers. The massager heats the surface tissues, the currents pass deep into the body. Thanks to this, small fat molecules dissolve and, with the help of the circulatory and excretory systems, are removed from the body in liquid form;
- During the sessions you do not need to make any effort. The entire procedure lasts about an hour, the time depends on the area and problem. All this time the patient simply lies on the couch and feels the muscles “involuntarily” contract. There is no discomfort.
![](https://i1.wp.com/ladywow.ru/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/apparat-dlya-miostimulyacii.jpg)
Indications for the procedure are varied: from increased weight to problems with the musculoskeletal system. It is worth noting that initially body myostimulation was intended for the rehabilitation of athletes and patients with various spinal diseases. The currents penetrate the nerve endings of the bone marrow, thereby activating its work. Numerous rehabilitation centers still use this method of treating patients.
But body myostimulation sessions also have certain contraindications:
- This is dangerous to use if there are various implants in the body. Current, like ultrasound, when penetrating into them, can not only disrupt their operation, but also cause a breakdown;
- The procedure is strictly prohibited for oncological diseases, problems with the excretory and circulatory systems;
- Electrical stimulation is not recommended during pregnancy as it may cause premature birth. It is still unknown how currents affect lactation and milk quality, but doctors also advise breastfeeding girls to refrain from this procedure.

How the session is conducted
Different salons can use the following devices for the procedure: Gezatone, EHU-3510D. Each of them has its own characteristics. In addition, for each device the manufacturer makes special attachments for different zones. Let's see how the session goes:
- The body is treated with a special gel that will reduce tissue heating but improve the conductivity of currents to the muscles;
- All electrodes are located symmetrically on the body. This is very important to achieve the best effect from the session. They have soft suction cups that allow you to quickly move a specific contact to another location if necessary. Each zone has its own electrode installation schemes;
- The device is connected to the network and configured.
![](https://i0.wp.com/ladywow.ru/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/strojnaya-figura.jpg)
After the procedure is completed, specialists prescribe various recovery sessions: paraffin therapy, relaxing massages and other techniques that will help relieve tone a little.
To save on procedures, you can buy a home device for myostimulation of the body and face. They are sold in many home improvement stores and beauty salons.
Every woman wants to have a beautiful body, look great and enjoy her reflection in the mirror. If you can’t devote time to sports, go on strict diets and constantly limit yourself to sweets and starchy foods, you should choose a modern weight loss method. Myostimulation of the body is the effect of pulsed currents that enhance the functioning of systems and organs. The procedure is carried out quickly and painlessly, after which the person notices significant improvements in the figure and loses weight in problem areas of the body.
Body myostimulation, what is it?
Many, having heard about this procedure, wonder what myostimulation is and why is it needed? This is a unique effect of current pulses on the body, which send signals to the muscles, allowing you to lose extra pounds by improving the functioning of the body. In other words, myostimulation can be called passive gymnastics or training, because it also helps burn weight, but does not require any effort.
Myostimulators come in two types: stationary and wireless, allowing you to use them anywhere at any time. The latter work with batteries, so they do not produce the maximum impact on the muscles, unlike a stationary device. This type of myostimulator is used in beauty salons, effectively affecting fat cells, promoting their breakdown. To correct your figure and bring it into the desired shape, you must undergo a course of myostimulation. It will maximize the functioning of organs and systems and will force the central nervous system to send the right impulses to burn fat.
It is not recommended to use such muscle stimulators for children; doctors are against any such intervention. If a child is overweight, you need to get rid of it by adjusting your diet, as well as by including more activity.
Advantages of the body myostimulation procedure
Myostimulation of the abdomen or the whole body is a procedure that will allow you to get rid of fat deposits in problem areas in the shortest possible time, activate the necessary processes, and speed up the process of fat breakdown. If you entrust your body to an experienced professional who uses only stationary types of muscle stimulators, you can achieve significant changes in appearance.
Among the advantages of the procedure, the following are noted:
- Removing excess fluid;
- Strengthening muscle groups;
- Reducing skin laxity, sagging, cellulite;
- Stimulation of metabolic processes;
- Increased volume of muscle tissue;
- Increased muscle tone;
- Fighting stretch marks.
All these advantages of the procedure simply force modern women to resort to such manipulations and achieve good results in the shortest possible time. The main thing is to give preference to the best masters; you can also purchase a wireless muscle stimulator and carry out the procedure at home.
Another continuous advantage of such manipulation is its complete painlessness and impact on a specific place on the body. If you need to reduce the volume in the abdomen, such a wireless device is put on the problem area and activated. You can do household chores with it without feeling any discomfort. But in order to achieve maximum results in minimal time, it is better to choose a stationary myostimulator, the procedure on which is carried out only within the salon.
Disadvantages of the body myostimulation procedure
Despite the fact that myostimulation really helps you lose extra pounds and take care of your shape, it is also characterized by small disadvantages that are worth paying attention to. The actions of a myostimulator can have a negative impact on the human body, and also have some contraindications for use.
The disadvantages of the procedure are the following nuances:
- If you use a myostimulator incorrectly, you can face serious consequences and diseases;
- Weight loss occurs by getting rid of excess fluid under the influence of current, and with further incorrect lifestyle, the extra pounds will quickly return;
- If the goal is to increase the amount of muscle mass, using a myostimulator will not achieve the desired effect;
- If a person is not overweight, but at the stage of obesity, such manipulations will not be effective.
Before giving preference to a procedure using a myostimulator, it is necessary to familiarize yourself with all the pros and cons of the procedure. Of course, there are many more advantages to carrying out such a manipulation, but even one drawback can significantly spoil the quality of life of someone losing weight, as well as provoke the occurrence of certain diseases.
Indications for the body myostimulation procedure
It is best to carry out myostimulation in a professional salon, trusting the best specialist. Due to inexperience and lack of knowledge of certain nuances, independent procedures can lead to unforeseen consequences. Many people are interested in the question of when myostimulation will be useful and for what conditions it is used. Indications for the procedure are:
- Muscle hypertension due to physical inactivity;
- Decreased skin and muscle tone;
- Excess weight;
- Severe cellulite and stretch marks;
- Atonic bleeding;
- Facial muscle paresis;
- Hip dysplasia, scoliosis;
- Gynecological diseases;
- Consequences after injuries and inflammatory diseases.
There are many indications for myostimulation, and for each of them the procedure gives good results. The main thing is that before giving preference to it, consult a specialist and determine whether there are any contraindications that will only aggravate the situation and will not allow you to achieve the desired effect at the end of the procedure.
Contraindications for body myostimulation
But also myostimulation of the body is characterized by various contraindications that you should definitely pay attention to. Among them are the following:
- Blood pathologies;
- Thrombophlebitis;
- The presence of an intrauterine device;
- Purulent skin lesions;
- Oncology;
- Acute diseases;
- Pregnancy;
- Tendency to bleeding;
- Contracture of facial muscles;
- Epilepsy;
- Individual intolerance to external influences of currents;
- Serious joint dislocations without treatment.
The list of contraindications may increase, supplemented by certain diseases. In order not to encounter difficulties, not to provoke a deterioration in well-being and not to cause a number of concomitant diseases, before carrying out it it is worth visiting a specialist who will take the necessary tests and make diagnostics that will allow you to find out the percentage of successful myostimulation.
Side effects
Myostimulation is a kind of intervention in the integrity of the tissue and in the body itself, so negative consequences from using this procedure are often observed. Often, side effects occur when a number of contraindications are neglected, as well as when all rules and regulations are not observed during the procedure. The main side effects after myostimulation are:
- The occurrence of an inflammatory process at the sites of exposure;
- The appearance of pain during exposure, which ideally should not exist;
- Allergic manifestations on the body, which indicate individual intolerance to the procedure;
- Electrical injuries that significantly impair the quality of life;
- The appearance of burns of any localization.
For each person, side effects can be different; they depend not only on individual characteristics, but also on the ultimate goal for which this method is used. To minimize the occurrence of side effects and reduce the risk of certain diseases that affect the quality of life, you need to carefully choose a salon and a specialist who will perform the procedure. He must have a certificate in hand confirming his professionalism, as well as ensuring maximum safety for the client.
Features of the body myostimulation procedure technique
Carrying out the myostimulation procedure requires appropriate preparation, which allows you to perform the procedure efficiently and effectively without encountering negative consequences. Experts advise a day before the procedure to scrub the area that will be affected. It will remove dead skin particles from the skin, cleanse it and prepare it as much as possible for external influences. Due to this cleansing, the full effect of currents on the skin occurs, allowing you to achieve the desired effect. If the procedure is carried out on the face, make-up is first removed and the skin is cleansed with tonic.
During the manipulation itself, the patient’s body is covered with electrodes, lubricated with a special gel to minimize the negative impact of currents on the skin. Only a specialist knows in which direction to distribute the electrodes so that each of them gives the maximum result and speeds up the process of achieving the goal.
Next, the device sets the required current strength with which the effect on the body will occur. The specialist also selects it individually, focusing not only on the severity of the situation, but also on the characteristics of the skin. The duration of the procedure is up to 30 minutes. If you are working on a small area on the body, 10-15 minutes are enough to create the maximum impact and achieve the desired effect.
During the work, the patient lies calmly on the couch and is not bothered by pain or other discomfort. The only thing that may occur is slight tingling in the area of treatment, which ends immediately upon completion of the procedure. There is also no pain or soreness observed after myostimulation, in contrast to heavy physical exercise, after which muscle pain is present for another week.
At home, there is no need to continue special care after the procedure; it is enough to ensure the maximum hygienic care of the body, have personal bathroom amenities, eat right and take care of healthy sleep for at least 8 hours.
We suggest looking at the features of body myostimulation:
If the goal is to lose weight or improve the quality of your figure, you can use other types of procedures in combination with myostimulation, for example, massage, wraps, and skin scrubbing. They will have a beneficial effect on the skin, get rid of dead skin particles, and also improve blood circulation in the tissues, which is very important for losing weight. Often the manipulation is combined with a cosmetic procedure - ultrasonic cavitation.
Experts do not recommend placing all the emphasis on myostimulation, and in addition using other means to help get rid of this or that problem. Taken together, the procedure will bring much more benefits and accelerate the effect of exposure to pulsed currents.
Conclusion
Body correction must always be carried out correctly, avoiding any side effects and consequences. In order not to encounter complications and deterioration in well-being, you should choose only the best specialists who know the technique of performing myostimulation for any problem. But before this, a visit to a specialist is recommended, who will perform the necessary examination, take tests and determine whether there are any contraindications that could fully worsen your well-being and reduce the effectiveness of myostimulation.
