Frequently asked questions

Electro Muscle Stimulation (EMS)

What is EMS?

Electro Muscle Stimulation (EMS) is a whole-body training method used to build muscles, get toned, and lose weight.

Where is EMS training used?

EMS training has been used for years by health and wellness professionals. Physiotherapists use EMS for joint-sparing muscle formation and for targeted back exercises. Elite athletes and models use this equipment along with their training to improve strength and speed. Personal trainers, gyms and beauty centres use this technology focusing on the fitness and beauty enhancements it offers which includes simulation of metabolism, tightening of connective tissue, cellulite reduction, body shaping, and more.

What are the benefits of EMS?

Build Muscles

The electrodes are delivered directly to the muscles in a way that is safe and effective. Our bodysuit covers all major muscle groups, so each of your muscle groups can be targeted to meet your goals.

Weight Loss and Cellulite Reduction

The metabolism largely determines the number of calories needed to perform daily activities. Aging slows down the metabolic rate resulting in weight gain. With EMS, the body’s metabolism is increased for 72 hours post-workout which means that you’ll be burning fat even after you leave our studio.

Improve Posture 

By targeting muscles in the back, core and shoulders, those areas are strengthened.

Recover from Injuries

If you’re suffering from back, knee, shoulder, or any other type of injury, EMS can help you gain strength and avoid future injuries. 

Tone Your Body

EMS training improves circulation in the muscles and connective tissue, resulting in firmer skin. By combining EMS with cardio sessions, you can maximise these benefits further.

Relieve Joints

EMS training provides all of the benefits of traditional training without the impact. This is especially beneficial to people who have conditions affecting the joints, and those who are recovering from injuries.

Balance the Muscular System

By targeting specific muscles that are weak or underdeveloped, EMS can help you attain full body fitness

Is EMS training safe?

Training and therapy using EMS is not dangerous. During your EMS training, you will experience small low-frequency currents contracting your muscles. Hence, the impulses do not seem foreign to your body and do not reach the organs.

Why is EMS training more effective than conventional training at the gym?

In short, EMS activates 12 major muscles and also all minor muscles ( over 90% of the muscles fibres) at the same time during your 20-minute workout. This also includes deep muscles which are difficult to target at the conventional gym. Moreover, EMS training comprises of irregular muscle fibre simulation which results in an increased muscle fibre creation at a faster rate, allowing you to gain more muscles. All in all, you will see faster results!

Is EMS technology new?

No! EMS technology was first invented in 1902, has been used for years in physiotherapy, by athletes and models and through Spark is now available to you! At Spark we use the latest technology by XBody.

How long before I see results?

Within the first few sessions, you will notice better posture and muscle tightening. You will notice visible results including weight loss and body shaping with continued use of EMS training within the first 10 sessions.

Can I lose weight with EMS?

YES! EMS training has two main parts. The first is weight loss visible through the inches you will lose at the waist, hips, etc. while the second comprises of burning those fat deposits!

If I stop EMS training will I get out of shape?

To maintain your figure and stay fit you will need to stay active. One way to do that is through regular EMS training and to adopt an active lifestyle.
