    How does HIEMS build muscle?

    About the Treatment

    Work towards the definition you have been training for with our cutting-edge HIEMS technology. This innovative, non-invasive treatment uses focused electromagnetic energy to penetrate through the skin and fat layers, triggering supramaximal muscle contractions, the kind of intense activity your body cannot achieve through voluntary exercise like crunches or squats.

    These powerful contractions force the muscle tissue to adapt to extreme conditions, leading to deep remodelling of the muscle's internal structure. This results in muscle growth (hypertrophy), increased density, and an immediate breakdown of nearby fat cells to fuel the activity. In just one session, you can achieve the equivalent of thousands of muscle contractions, resulting in a more toned, defined and stronger physique with absolutely no downtime.

    • Muscle Building: Induces thousands of contractions in a single session to help build lean muscle mass.
    • Increased Fat Metabolism: The intense demand on muscles supports a fat-targeting response in the surrounding area.
    • Enhanced Definition: Ideal for sculpting the abdomen, glutes, arms and thighs.
    • Targeted Intensity: The equivalent of thousands of crunches or squats without the strain on your joints.
    • 30 minutes of HIEMS is equivalent to 20 000 sit-ups.

    Questions worth asking

    Any clinic can tell you what a treatment does. We would rather tell you what it does, what it does not do, and what can go wrong, so you can make a decision you feel good about.

    Is HIEMS safe?
    Yes. HIEMS uses focused electromagnetic energy to trigger powerful muscle contractions without surgery or needles. The treatment is painless, though the contractions are intense. The most common after-effect is mild muscle soreness, the same as after a heavy workout, which usually settles within a day or two.
    Does HIEMS hurt?
    No. You feel strong, involuntary muscle contractions and a tingling sensation, but not pain. Because the energy targets muscle directly, there is no strain on joints or ligaments. Intensity is adjusted to your comfort throughout the session.
    How many HIEMS sessions to see results?
    A typical course is four to eight sessions over two to four weeks. Many clients notice firmer, toned muscle from the second or third session, with fuller definition developing over the following weeks as the muscle remodels. We recommend maintenance sessions to sustain results.
    Can HIEMS replace exercise?
    HIEMS builds and defines muscle efficiently, but it complements rather than replaces a healthy routine. It excels at toning areas that are hard to target, but cardiovascular fitness, nutrition and overall activity still matter for the best, most lasting outcome.
    Who is not a good candidate for HIEMS?
    HIEMS is not suitable during pregnancy, or for people with metal or electronic implants such as pacemakers, a history of epilepsy or seizure disorders, a hernia, or recent surgery in the treatment area. We review your history at consultation and confirm the right approach for you.
