Will Emsculpt make my back have less pain by strengthening my core?

Hello and thank you for your question! Emsculpt is a great way help to ease back pain by strengthening your core. This treatment allows for muscle engagement beyond what’s possible at the gym. It is a non-invasive, high tech machine that uses HIFEM (High Intensity Focused Electromagnetic) to contract muscles 20,000 times in 30 mins. There is no downtime or lingering soreness afterwards. I hope this helps!

Hello darling,

First, you need to figure out why youre suffering of back pain. Go on a consultation with your primary doctor to check everything and after that you can consider any other procedure.

Hope this helps and best of lucks.

Back pain has many causes. Most people are referred to physical therapy as a part of the treatment for back pain. Physical Therapy is aimed at body mechanics, Core Stability and Strength, and functional strengthening. EMSculpt has been proven to increase muscle mass by 25% especially when applied to the abdominal wall. The abdominal wall is key to Core Strength and Stability. Along with Pelvic Floor strengthening with Emsella, the Core can be stabilized which can reduce or relieve back pain.

yes i have had patients notice an improvement in their back pain after an Emsculpt treatment of their abdomen because the treatment strengthens the patient's core

Thank you for your question. It is very possible that Emsculpt can improve your back pain. I have found that treating the buttocks has a more significant effect on low back pain but strengthening your core can help as well. As with any medical intervention regarding back pain there is no guarantee of success but we have had many patients report significant improvements in there back pain following treatment with Emsculpt.

This is a great question, and goes to the heart of what EMSCULPT can do. Really any thing that helps
improve your core muscle strength and tone can help your back. Coupled with that, you can also experience a decrease in the fat overlying the abdomen,and possibly also some internal fat. (At least, I have seen what appears to be improvement in these areas visually.) My patients have been very happy with the improvement in abdominal muscle function as well as appearance, with more muscle definition.

If you’re back pain is directly related to lack of muscle strength then I suppose this could potentially help.

More likely I think this treatment will worsen at your back pain at least in the short term.

I recommend getting a work up from the pain specialist who specializes in lower back pain.

Most likely your pain is from spine pathology, a pinched nerve, stenosis or arthritis.

All of these have various forms of treatment.

Best,

Hello and thank you for your question. We would always recommend seeking a face to face consult for the best advice and treatment plan however from the information you have provided yes back pain can be significantly improved with Emsculpt by strengthening your core. We also sometimes combine it with the Emsella chair to strengthen the core in a slightly different approach. Always seek an experienced and qualified practitioner for any of these treatments. I hope that helps, best wishes
