Muscle strength plays a critical role in mobility, posture, metabolic health, and injury recovery.

Emsculpt NEO is a non-invasive, clinically validated therapy designed to support muscle strengthening and functional improvement without surgery or downtime.

Using a combination of High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic (HIFEM) energy and radiofrequency (RF), Emsculpt NEO stimulates deep muscle contractions that are difficult to achieve through voluntary exercise alone. Treatment is performed while comfortably lying down, with sessions lasting approximately 30 minutes.

At Fundament Health in Edmonton, Emsculpt NEO is offered as part of a physician-directed approach to strength, recovery, and long-term physical resilience. strength and core stability are foundational to mobility, posture, and long-term physical resilience.


Benefits of Emsculpt NEO Therapy

EmSculpt NEO builds muscle by combining High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic (HIFEM) energy with radiofrequency (RF) technology to deliver powerful, dual-action results.

HIFEM induces supramaximal muscle contractions—stronger than what you can achieve through exercise—triggering muscle fiber growth (hypertrophy) and, in some cases, the formation of new fibres (hyperplasia).

Simultaneously, RF gently heats the muscles to enhance contraction efficiency and targets surrounding fat cells for reduction.

This synergistic process leads to increased muscle mass, improved tone, and fat loss—all in a 30-minute, non-invasive session.

EmSculpt NEO is completely non-invasive, meaning there are no needles, incisions, or anesthesia required.

The treatment uses external applicators that sit on the surface of the skin to deliver High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic (HIFEM) energy and radiofrequency (RF).

These energies penetrate through the skin and fat layers to target muscle and fat tissue directly—without disrupting the skin barrier.

Patients remain fully clothed during the procedure, experience no downtime, and can return to their normal activities immediately after each session.

EmSculpt NEO is a safe and clinically proven rehabilitation and body contouring treatment that combines two well-established technologies: High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic (HIFEM) energy and radiofrequency (RF).

Its safety profile is backed by multiple peer-reviewed studies and FDA clearances for both muscle building and fat reduction.

The treatment is non-invasive, requires no anesthesia or downtime, and is performed while the patient is comfortably lying down.

Built-in safety protocols continuously monitor skin temperature to prevent overheating, ensuring a comfortable and controlled experience.

With over 30 clinical studies supporting its efficacy, EmSculpt NEO has demonstrated consistent results in reducing fat, increasing muscle mass, and improving body contours—safely and effectively.

EmSculpt NEO reduces fat through the use of radiofrequency (RF) energy, which heats subcutaneous fat to a precise temperature that triggers fat cell apoptosis—natural cell death.

Once the fat cells are damaged, the body gradually metabolizes and eliminates them through the lymphatic system over the following weeks.

This process results in a measurable reduction of fat in the treated area. When combined with HIFEM-induced muscle contractions, the treatment simultaneously sculpts and tones the body for a leaner, more defined appearance—all without surgery or downtime.


Emsculpt NEO — Frequently Asked Questions

Who can benefit from Emsculpt NEO therapy

Emsculpt NEO may be appropriate for individuals looking to improve muscle strength, core stability, posture, or body composition. It is commonly used by people recovering from inactivity or injury, those seeking functional strength support, or individuals aiming to improve muscle tone as part of a broader wellness or rehabilitation plan. A consultation is recommended to determine suitability.

What Does an Emsculpt NEO Treatment Feel Like

During treatment, patients experience strong, rhythmic muscle contractions that feel similar to an intense workout, along with a warming sensation from the radiofrequency energy. Intensity is adjusted for comfort, and treatments are generally well tolerated.

How long does each session take, and is there any downtime?

Each session lasts approximately 30 minutes. Emsculpt NEO is non-invasive and requires no downtime, allowing patients to return to normal activities immediately after treatment.

How many sessions are typically recommended?

The number of sessions varies depending on individual goals, baseline muscle strength, and clinical assessment. Many treatment plans involve a short series of sessions over several weeks, with optional maintenance sessions as needed.

Is Emsculpt NEO covered by insurance?

Coverage varies by provider and insurance plan. Emsculpt NEO is often considered an elective or wellness-based therapy. Our team can review pricing and available options during your consultation.
