Is Emsculpt safe for people with progressive MS?

The Emsculpt procedure is currently FDA cleared to treat your abdominals, buttocks, arms, calves and thighs. MS ( Multiple Sclerosis) is not antithetical to EmSculpt Classic or EmSculpt Neo. We have many patients in our office that are suffering with progressive MS that have used Electrical Stimulation treatments to make the muscle contract that is helpful in countering the nerve damage caused by MS. This is how it can help individuals walk. Electric muscle stimulation causes contractions in muscles that otherwise can't be controlled. EMS is also good for alleviating pain and spasms in the muscles — two more symptoms of multiple sclerosis.

Hi and thanks for your question!We have have several MS patients with weakness who have found that they feel stronger and fatigue less after Emsculpt treatments. The increase in lean muscle also improves balance and stability.For best results, I usually recommend beginning with a Core to Floor series; this combines Emsculpt treatment of your abdominal muscles with Emsella strengthening of your pelvic floor. This combo seems to offer the best option of balance, stability and core strength.Hope this helps!

EMSculpt has been used very successfully in people with different kinds of neurological problems, including MS, to help strengthen and build muscle. If you are highly inflamed, you need to postpone treatment until calmed down. Your medical provider can help guide you as to when to do treatments.
