Emsculpt NEO Functional for muscle re-education and recovery
For selected patients, physician-supervised neuromuscular stimulation may complement an individualized physical medicine and rehabilitation plan.
Muscle loss from inactivity
Muscle disuse can occur when injury, illness or recovery limits normal movement. Emsculpt NEO has an FDA-cleared rehabilitative indication for prevention or retardation of disuse atrophy in specified treatment areas.
Muscle re-education and movement
Neuromuscular stimulation may be considered as an adjunct for muscle re-education, maintaining or increasing range of motion, and rehabilitation-related function goals.
Muscle spasms and pain-related limitations
Its cleared neuromuscular indications include relaxation of muscle spasms. Pain may have many causes; it requires clinical assessment, and Emsculpt NEO is not presented here as a stand-alone treatment for chronic pain or injury.
Is Emsculpt NEO Functional appropriate for you?
Dr. Retodo evaluates the nature of the injury, muscle function, medical history and any implanted devices or other contraindications before recommending an adjunctive treatment. Outcomes vary. Treatment does not replace rehabilitation exercises or other medically indicated care.
