Having a herniated disk flare up and getting Emsculpt on abdomen?

Question

I’ve had issues with a herniated disk and back muscle spasms for the last nine months. It’s been really tough from going to The gym 6-7 times a week to doing only simple physical therapy minimal exercising. Is this ok to do on my abdomen? I had an extremely strong core before this episode happened, and am losing my definition slowly.

We have had excellent results with EMsculpt for enhancing core strength and successfully reducing pain associated with a herniated lumbar disc. Core strength is essential for stabilization of a weakened lower back after disc herniation and/or back surgery for the disc injury. Our chiropractor, with 40 years experience, has expressed that he has never seen such rapid improvements in disc injury and post-surgical disc cases than those who have undergone EMsculpt as an adjunct to treatment and rehab.

Hello and thank you for your question! It is well known that a strong core helps with back pain and posture. Emsculpt strengthens the muscle groups of the abdomen and would be ideal for anyone that is unable to do core focused exercises. I think that you would be pleased with the results, particularly if you have the recommended four sessions. Best wishes for your recovery!
