Frequently asked questions
What does the treatment involve?
TESLAFormer™ is an in and out procedure, non-invasive and has no downtime. Treatments take from 30 minutes and patients can return to their normal routine after their treatment. You will be seated or laid down fully clothed, in the comfortableTESLAFormer™chair or treatment bed.
Who is it for?
Body Sculpting is suitable for anyone who wants to tone and strengthen muscle. Best results are seen from people who maintain relative fitness and a healthy lifestyle.
Why TESLAFormer™?
Body Sculpting offers a fundamental therapy with 2 applicators – a unique system with fixed programs for different parts of the body. In A 30-minute session, using different frequencies and sequences, it stimulates muscle nerves, contract muscles, increases the circulatory system and stimulates the fascia. While working on the muscles, the body begins to consume fat tissue in the targeted area. In this way, you build in muscle tone and burn fat.
What is the TESLAFormer™?
Body Sculpting uses Functional Magnetic Stimulation (FMS) to stimulate muscle contraction which is much higher than what typically the body can achieve through exercise. TESLA FORMER is the only system capable of running all muscle groups up to 50,000 contractions in one session.
What is it used for?
This treatment excels in muscle development (aesthetic programs), and offers basic physical rehabilitation therapies. This is the only system that can work with 24 different sequences within the same program or session according to the treated area.
What is the technology?
A special magnetic field is generated by a pulse of current inside the Electro-Magnetic Mechanism, and this induces a current that triggers the motor nerve system of the body, stimulating the targeted muscles to contract, and helping to boost circulation and nutrition.
What areas does the TESLAFormer™ treat?
- Body reshaping
- Cellulite reduction and burning fat
- Improvement of microcirculation
- Acceleration of lymph flow
- Increase in muscle tone
- Tightening of skin
- Increasing metabolism that leads to better muscle and adipose
tissue condition - Muscle strengthening
- Relieve pain in the musculoskeletal system
- Muscle relaxation
Pre Treatment information
Pre-treatment – make sure that you have not eaten within 2 hours (similar to exercise). On the day of the treatment, you are advised to wear comfortable clothing which allows flexibility for correct positioning during the treatment.
How long does the session take?
TESLAFormer™ treatment sessions typically take 30 minutes. There is no downtime and you can resume normal activities following the treatment. Your practitioner will help you create a treatment plan catered to your desired goals.
How often can I treat the same area?
Ideal sequence of treatments would be every second day or at least twice a week. But we suggest one day of rest between the treatments on the same area.
How should I prepare for the treatment?
Applicators are strapped on the muscle(s) that you want to stimulate. It is important that you don’t have any metal in the treatment area such as metal studs in jeans. Active wear or gym wear are most suitable options to wear on day of treatment.
How intense is the treatment?
Treatment is always started on lowest intensity and gradually increased to the level of tolerance – pain threshold. Intensity is adjusted on each client individually. Every treatment starts with lowest intensity level and increased slowly. When you reach lever of tolerance intensity will plateau and then increase again in a couple of minutes for muscles to adapt.
What is the minimum amount of TeslaFormer Treatments I should have?
We recommend minimum 8 treatments, but it depends on stage that you are beginning and where you want to end.
What does the average treatment plan consist of?
A typical treatment plan would consist of 4-10+ treatments 2-3 times per week with at least 1 rest day in between.
What should I do after the treatment?
It is recommended to drink plenty of water after treatment.
Who cannot be treated?
- Pregnancy
- Cancer
- Epilepsy
- Complete muscle tear at or near the site of stimulation
- Cardiac pacemakers
- Severe active pulmonary conditions
- Medication pumps
- Implants made of ferromagnetic metal at or near the site of stimulation
- Endometriosis
- Open wounds at or near the site of stimulation
- Cardiac arrhythmia
- Recent surgery
- Hearing ai
- Generally Clients BMI should not be higher than 25, however we have seen encouraging results from clients who have a higher BMI. Those clients have measurable inch loss but they may not see defined muscles as the layer of fat on top of the muscle obscures the result. Clients that are in better shape will have better and quicker results.
What are the advantages of FMS?
- Allows deep penetration into heterogeneous biological tissue
- FMS allows stimulation of deep muscle structures that cannot be reached by FES
- FMS is painless, non-invasive and thus suitable for patients where FES cannot be used
- FMS effectively stimulates muscle tissue without direct skin contact
- No negative side effects are known in the literature as long as contraindications are taken into account
