What Is EMSCULPT NEO®?

EMSCULPT NEO combines two clinically proven technologies in a single treatment:

High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic (HIFEM) Energy
Stimulates powerful muscle contractions that activate deep muscle fibers that are difficult to engage through normal exercise.

Radiofrequency (RF) Energy
Gently warms the tissue to support circulation and localized fat reduction.

Together, these technologies cause supramaximal muscle contractions — meaning the muscles contract far more intensely than they can during voluntary exercise. This stimulates muscle growth, improves neuromuscular activation, reduces fat, and strengthens the body’s supportive muscular system.

How EMSCULPT NEO® Supports Functional Health

While EMSCULPT NEO is often known for body contouring, its greatest value in a wellness setting is its ability to strengthen muscles that support everyday movement and spinal stability.

By targeting areas such as the core, glutes, arms, and legs, this treatment helps build strength that supports posture, balance, and mobility. Stronger muscles allow the body to move more efficiently and can help maintain the benefits of chiropractic care.

Improved muscle activation can help support:

• Core stability and spinal support

• Postural control and movement patterns

• Functional strength for daily activities

• Increased range of motion
• Improved blood circulation 

• Recovery after periods of inactivity

• Age-related muscle loss or weakness

When the muscular system becomes stronger and more coordinated, it can better support the joints and spine, allowing chiropractic adjustments to hold longer and movement to feel more natural.

Back Pain Relief & Improved Comfort

Weak or underactive muscles can contribute to chronic discomfort, especially in the lower back. Strengthening the core and supporting muscles can play an important role in relieving strain placed on the spine.

When used alongside chiropractic care, EMSCULPT NEO helps address both structural alignment and muscular support. This integrated approach helps improve stability, reduce discomfort, and support long-term functional movement.

Targeted Fat Reduction

Fat tissue conducts energy less efficiently than skin and muscle, which allows it to heat more effectively during radiofrequency (RF) treatment. When fat cells are exposed to temperatures above approximately 42–43°C for a sustained period, they begin a process called apoptosis, or programmed cell death. The body then gradually and naturally clears away these damaged fat cells over time.

Powerful Muscle Building

HIFEM+ technology delivers thousands of electromagnetic pulses during a 30-minute session, causing powerful muscle contractions known as supramaximal contractions —contractions that cannot be achieved through normal voluntary exercise.

Clinical studies show that muscles may increase by an average of about 29% following treatment, and research suggests the level of muscle activation during a single 30-minute session can be comparable to what occurs during 12–16 weeks of resistance training.

How EMSCULPT NEO® Works with Chiropractic Care

Chiropractic adjustments restore alignment and improve joint motion, but muscles must also be strong enough to support these changes.

EMSCULPT NEO helps strengthen and retrain the muscles responsible for stabilizing the spine and supporting proper movement patterns. When these muscles become stronger and more coordinated, they help maintain spinal alignment and support long-term chiropractic outcomes.

This combination can be especially beneficial for individuals who have experienced:

• Muscle weakness after injury or surgery

• Deconditioning from inactivity

• Difficulty activating key muscle groups during exercise

• Age-related muscle loss
