Develops, firms, strengthens\u00a0<\/em><\/span><\/h2>\n

Electrostimulation EMS (Electrical Muscle Stimulation)<\/em> simply mimics the body’s natural muscle contractions. Slight electrical impulses are transmitted directly to the muscle through electrodes placed at strategic locations to trigger contractions.<\/p>\n

Electrostimulation EMS allows exact dosing of quantity and strength of contractions. A short rest period is granted to muscles after each impulsion for an effective elimination of toxins in order to reduce the risk of soreness.<\/p>\n

MORE THAN 1000 CONTRACTIONS IN 45 MINUTES<\/strong><\/em><\/h3>\n

History<\/span><\/h3>\n

The fundamental principles of EMS have been highlighted 200 years ago by Galvani. He discovered that a shock of static electricity applied to an exposed nerve of a dead frog could cause its leg to contract. Since time, considerable progress were made and it was in 1965 that Slendertone<\/a><\/em>\u00a0 started to distribute worldwide their first state of the art electrostimulator as we know it today.<\/p>\n

Recognized Worldwide<\/span><\/h3>\n

In 1972, EMS was recognized by the Olympic Committee<\/em> then endorsed by the Canadian Track and Field Association<\/em> and cleared by the FDA<\/em> in USA.\u00a0 Besides a large number of scientific publications were published on the subject.<\/p>\n

Physical condition<\/span><\/h3>\n

30 minutes of electrostimulation EMS is the equivalent of 2 hours of intensive traditional training according to some studies. Strength and muscular endurance are increased much more rapidly than by traditional means. However, the cardiovascular condition is not improved since the treatments are carried out without any efforts. This gap will be easily filled by adding a low-impact aerobic exercise program.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”7\/12″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Firming up<\/span><\/h3>\n

Electrostimulation EMS was, above all, designed to improve muscle tone (firming).\u00a0 As expected, frequency and regularity of treatments are essentials to obtain good results. Two to three treatments a week for one to two months will be sufficient to achieve remarkable results.<\/p>\n

Development<\/span><\/h3>\n

Development of weak muscles will be easy to obtain. However, on strong muscles, we need to induce significant contractions to ensure the participation of all muscle fibres. Because there is no weight resistance, no one can expect to obtain an exaggerate hypertrophy of the muscle. If this is the goal, by combining EMS training with traditional weightlifting will achieve spectacular results.<\/p>\n

Thinning<\/span><\/h3>\n

Few calories are burned during an EMS treatment. Therefore, we can not expect to loose weight. The thinning effect is obtained by increasing the tension of loose muscles.\u00a0 In case of overweight problems, one should therefore combine exercise with a balanced diet.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”5\/12″ css=”.vc_custom_1524366706589{margin-right: 30px !important;margin-left: 30px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][vc_single_image image=”5562″ img_size=”385×385″ alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_shadow_circle_2″ css_animation=”fadeInRight” css=”.vc_custom_1532179312453{margin-right: 30px !important;margin-left: 30px !important;}”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row margin_top=”20″ margin_bottom=”15″ css=”.vc_custom_1557198376597{margin-bottom: 30px !important;}”][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image image=”6131″ img_size=”360×220″ alignment=”center” css_animation=”fadeInLeft”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”2\/3″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Recommendations\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

In 95% of cases, the effectiveness is certain. Factors that may affect the performance are: a weak muscle condition, a sedentary life and excess weight. And for people suffering of glandular disorder or having an acute problem of obesity will not obtain good results.<\/p>\n

Finally, there are some cases where electrical muscle stimulation is to proscribe, such as pacemaker patients and people with neuromuscular or inflammatory diseases. But for anyone in good health, we could only see advantages.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row margin_top=”15″ margin_bottom=”15″][vc_column width=”1\/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1586662372001{margin-top: 25px !important;margin-right: 50px !important;margin-bottom: 25px !important;margin-left: 25px !important;border-top-width: 2px !important;border-right-width: 2px !important;border-bottom-width: 2px !important;border-left-width: 2px !important;padding-top: 50px !important;padding-right: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 50px !important;padding-left: 25px !important;background-color: #a5c8cc !important;border-left-color: #1e73be !important;border-left-style: solid !important;border-right-color: #1e73be !important;border-right-style: solid !important;border-top-color: #1e73be !important;border-top-style: solid !important;border-bottom-color: #1e73be !important;border-bottom-style: solid !important;border-radius: 5px !important;}”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1772581230553{margin-right: 30px !important;}”]<\/p>\n
