What is magnetic muscle stimulation?

The magnetic field created by the CoolTone procedure delivers strong magnetic pulses directly to muscle tissue. The muscle responds to this by contracting, and intensely at that. Typical muscle contraction relies on your nervous system and the interaction between the brain and your muscles. The CoolTone procedure bypasses this process and goes directly to muscle contraction, stimulating the muscle much more than a typical strength workout.

Is CoolTone safe?

It absolutely is. Magnets are used in a wide variety of medical applications. Magnetic muscle stimulation is actually very common during physical therapy while rehabbing a muscular injury or to treat muscle atrophy. CoolTone is also FDA approved.

Not really. You can return to normal activities almost immediately. There may be some discomfort for a day or so after treatment, but it’s all about what your body can tolerate.

Anything special you should know about before CoolTone treatment?

One important thing. The treatment can be done over clothing, as long as there’s no metal on the clothing that would be near the magnetic field. Think rivets on jeans. Belt buckles. Things like that. Also, female patients should know that some IUDs contain metal components and could cause problems during treatment.

Who is a good candidate?

If you’re looking for a toned appearance in the abdomen, thighs, and/or buttocks, CoolTone is for you. If the fat is overly prevalent in the area, fat grafting may be needed before beginning treatment. And interested parties should be aware of any medical devices they have that may contain metal.
