These days, it seems like everyone is on an injectable weight loss medication like Ozempic or Semaglutide. If you’re unfamiliar with these drugs, they were originally approved for management of type 2 diabetes. A well-documented side effect is that they suppress appetite and promote weight loss. Now, even people who are perfectly healthy and a normal weight may go on Ozempic or Semaglutide to become slimmer. It’s surprisingly common.

If you’re interested in slimming down or changing your body shape, there are non-invasive drug-free options that folks in the Halifax area have been using successfully for a number of years. Interestingly, these non-invasive options also help you build muscle, which is a significant benefit. Considering that Ozempic and Semaglutide usually cause muscle loss along with weight loss, these non-invasive options are both a complement and alternative to the weight loss drugs.

One of these non-invasive muscle-building technologies is called Emsculpt Neo. This technology was launched in Canada in 2018 and has attracted a great deal of interest. Basically, it’s a machine with applicators that a technician applies to an area of the body. It uses radiofrequency heat and high intensity-focused electromagnetic energy to simultaneously reduce fat by an average of 30% and build muscle by an average of 25%. It might be hard for some to believe, but non-invasive “body contouring” has been around for at least 20 years, and people who’ve tried Emsculpt Neo swear by it.

Some of the hype around this device has to do with all of the celebrities who use it to stay slim and fit. The most recent celebrities to divulge that they do Emsculpt Neo include the Victoria Secret Angles, also known as the Victoria Secret runway models.

That being said, the video above shows that this technology isn’t just for people who want to improve or maintain their look. It can help people make a meaningful lifestyle change and improve their overall health and wellness, too. Pairing Emsculpt Neo with a weight loss medication is particularly beneficial because it helps combat the muscle loss that the drugs cause.

Another non-invasive muscle-building device that helps with core strength and body contouring is called Emsella. This device is in the shape of a chair because it strengthens the pelvic floor. It turns out that strengthening the pelvic floor has many benefits. Emsella is Health Canada approved for the treatment of stress, urge, and mixed urinary incontinence, which is why urologists, gynecologists, physiotherapists, and other professionals are offering these treatments across North America. Emsella treatments also help people sleep better overnight because after completing these strength treatments, they don’t have to wake up to pee as often.

For those who aren’t interested in building muscle but would like to reduce their size, Exilis Ultra is another non-invasive device that can make a big difference. In a series of short treatments, some people see a significant change. Like Emsculpt Neo, it uses radiofrequency heat.

From drugs to devices, it’s astonishing that we have these innovative options to help us manage our weight, shape, and fitness. What will they come up with next?
