EmSculpt: Build Muscle and Burn Fat

What if I told you could get the results of doing 20,000 crunches and 20,000 squats all while lying down watching Netflix? We know, it sounds too good to be true. But a session of EmSculpt is equivalent to just that—20,000 crunches and/or 20,000 squats! Using high-intensity electromagnetic energy to stimulate muscle contractions in your body, EmSculpt is the first non-invasive treatment of its kind. Since the contractions of EmSculpt are much more intense than what you could achieve through voluntary muscle contractions, you are able to build muscle and burn fat in a way that’s not possible through traditional exercise alone.

EmSculpt treatments are typically 30 minutes long and should be scheduled two to three days apart. We recommend a minimum of four treatments; however clients’ needs may differ based on their starting point and desired results.

EmSculpt can reduce fat by an average of 19% and increase muscle mass by an average of 16% in just four treatments. That being said, EmSculpt works best when used in unison with our other treatments and a healthy lifestyle. To learn more, book your EmSculpt consultation today.

Cryotherapy: Recover and Burn

Have you ever had an ice bath? Even if you haven’t, you’ve likely heard of its many benefits. Reduced inflammation, pain relief, faster recovery, weight loss, mental clarity and improved skin health can all be attributed to regular ice baths. But what if I told you we could do you one better? Cryotherapy  involves exposing the body to -150 to -180 Degrees Celsius for two to three minutes for benefits more extreme than the cold. As is probably evident, we love cryotherapy for its many benefits but the one that has been the most jaw dropping among our clients is cryotherapy’s ability to aid in weight loss efforts. A single session (remember that’s under three minutes) burns an additional 500 and 800 calories—the equivalent calories to running for about an hour!

Why do you burn more calories with cryotherapy? It’s simple really. Post cryo session, your body works overtime to warm you back up. The increased circulation helps with toxin release and recent studies have found cryotherapy boosts your metabolism (or BMR).

We understand exposing your body to such extreme temperatures can be scary, even if it’s only a couple of minutes. Our team will be with you every step of the way to ensure you are comfortable and safe throughout your treatment. Your head will remain outside of the cryochamber for the entirety of your treatment and all extremities will be covered for additional protection.

We have been overwhelmed with the results our clients are receiving by integrating cryotherapy into their other weight loss treatments. Along with the additional calories burned, cryotherapy helps improve recovery times, reduce risk of injury and boost energy levels so you feel capable and ready to hit your next workout.

Infrared Sauna Sessions: Detoxify and Burn

Ready to burn up to 600 additional calories—the equivalent of a 4-5 kilometer run—in 40 minutes? It’s time to get acquainted with our private infrared sauna treatments here in Parksville, BC. .

Our spacious private infrared sauna room allows plenty of privacy and zen for you to relax, detox, sweat and burn. Along with helping you sweat more and burn hundreds of calories, infrared sauna sessions aid in reducing stress, which can also be a cause of weight gain.

Given the sweaty nature of infrared sauna sessions, we often suggest our weight management clients add a session at the very end of their visit with us. During your private experience, it’s so important to stay hydrated. We also do not recommend starting with a long session, most of our clients have had to work their way up to staying in the sauna for longer periods of time. Any sign of dizziness or overheating and we ask that you immediately end your session.

Infrared sauna sessions are such a great addition to anyone looking to lose or maintain weight. We often have athletes come to us for sessions to aid in breaking their training plateaus. While sitting in a hot space for a set period of time may sound boring or difficult, we promise you, the habit reaps so many benefits. To learn more about our infrared sauna sessions, click here.

 Exilis Ultra: Tighten Skin and Boost Collagen

With the first three treatment options discussed being extremely effective, it’s likely you’ll achieve rapid weight loss (which is the goal, yay!); however, rapid weight loss can also mean you’ll experience excess skin that hasn’t had the time to adjust with your new shape. With Exilis Ultra, the first and only device to simultaneously combine radio frequency and ultrasound to tighten skin and address body concerns, we are able to improve skin laxity by boosting your body’s natural collagen production. Collagen is a protein that gives your skin its elasticity and firmness, and as you age, your body produces less of it, which can lead to sagging and wrinkles. By age 20, your skin’s collagen production will decline 1% every year and your skin’s thickness decreases 7% every 10 years.

By using controlled energy to target weak connective tissue, the Exilis improves skin laxity caused by the natural aging process or rapid weight loss. In addition, Exilis’s 25-45 minute treatments help aid in further fat reduction and don’t require any down time.
