Enhance Recovery & Restore Muscle Function

  • Faster muscle recoveryStimulated muscle fibers lead to faster muscle growth and strength restoration after surgery.
  • Reduced downtime and pain Quicker recovery times, allowing patients to return to their daily activities sooner.
  • Non-invasive and safe treatmentA non-surgical and FDA-approved procedure that requires no incisions or downtime.

This advanced treatment, pioneered with research led by Dr. Philip Saville, combines HIFEM (High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic) technology with synchronized radiofrequency (RF) to stimulate deep muscle contractions and accelerate post-surgical recovery.

Frequently asked questions about Emsculpt Neo for post-surgical recovery

Emsculpt Neo is an advanced, non-invasive body contouring treatment that not only enhances muscle tone but also accelerates muscle recovery after surgery.

Post-Operative Muscle Strength Recovery with Emsculpt Neo

It combines two powerful technologies:

  • HIFEM Technology: Generates powerful magnetic fields to contract muscles at an intensity beyond voluntary movement, helping to rebuild strength, coordination, and endurance.
  • Synchronized RF Energy: Gently heats muscles and surrounding tissues, enhancing blood circulation, reducing stiffness, and accelerating tissue healing.

This non-invasive approach is a groundbreaking advancement in post-surgical rehabilitation, significantly improving mobility and strength while reducing discomfort. 

Moreover, it helps prevent muscle atrophy and enhances overall strength, making it easier for patients to regain mobility and return to their normal routines.

Emsculpt Neo works by delivering HIFEM and RF energy simultaneously to the targeted muscle groups. 

Post-Operative Muscle Strength Recovery with Emsculpt Neo

Here’s how it facilitates post-surgical muscle recovery:

  • Muscle contractions: The HIFEM technology induces thousands of supramaximal contractions in a single session. These contractions engage deep muscle fibers that are difficult to activate through traditional physical therapy or exercise.
  • Increased blood flow and tissue healing: The heat generated by RF energy improves circulation, which enhances oxygen and nutrient delivery to the treated area. This promotes faster tissue repair and reduces inflammation, which is essential for post-surgical healing.
  • Muscle hypertrophy and remodeling: The intense contractions caused by Emsculpt Neo lead to the growth of new, stronger muscle fibers. This improves muscle tone, strength, and endurance, all of which are essential for post-operative rehabilitation.
  • Muscle re-education: Restores proper muscle engagement and movement post-surgery.
  • Relaxation of muscle Spasms: Reduces post-operative discomfort and stiffness.
  • Increased range of motion: Enhances flexibility and prevents joint stiffness.
  • Prevention of disuse atrophy: Stimulates muscle activity, preventing strength loss.
  • Supports circulatory health: Helps prevent venous thrombosis by improving blood flow.
  • Accelerates recovery: Speeds up healing and enhances physical therapy outcomes.

Emsculpt Neo is typically recommended after surgery when patients need to restore muscle strength and improve mobility. It’s commonly used in the following scenarios:

  • After orthopedic surgery: Helps rebuild muscles after joint replacement, ligament repair, or other orthopedic procedures.
  • Following spine surgery: Enhances core and back muscle strength after procedures such as spinal fusion or discectomy.
  • Post-abdominal surgery: Strengthens the abdominal wall after procedures such as hernia repair or cesarean delivery.

Dr. Saville may recommend Emsculpt Neo as part of a comprehensive post-operative rehabilitation plan to improve patient outcomes and prevent complications.

During an Emsculpt Neo session, patients will lie down on a comfortable setup while the applicator is placed on the targeted area. The device delivers electromagnetic pulses that induce strong muscle contractions. Simultaneously, RF energy generates heat to promote tissue healing.

Patients may feel intense muscle contractions similar to an intense workout and a warm sensation from the RF energy. However, the procedure is generally well-tolerated with minimal discomfort.

Each Emsculpt Neo session typically lasts about 30 minutes. Depending on the severity of muscle weakness and the patient’s recovery goals, a treatment plan may include 4–6 sessions spaced 5–10 days apart.

Renowned spine surgeon Dr. Philip Saville of the Saville Spine Institute in Palm Beach, FL, was instrumental in leading the clinical research that secured FDA approval for Emsculpt Neo in post-operative recovery.

His studies demonstrated the remarkable impact of Emsculpt Neo in rebuilding muscle function and accelerating healing for post-surgical patients.

Groundbreaking clinical findings:

  • 📈Enhanced muscle strength: Patients receiving Emsculpt Neo experienced a threefold increase in muscle strength compared to those in the control group immediately after completing treatment.
  • 🏃Greater confidence in movement: 95% of participants reported less muscle atrophy and weakness, enabling them to resume activities faster.
  • 💪Restored functional mobility: 90% of patients experienced improved muscle engagement and movement patterns within one month post-treatment.

🛡️Reduced risk of injury: 80% of participants noted reduced susceptibility to muscle strain at their one-month follow-up.

At Saville Spine Institute, we specialize in cutting-edge spinal and musculoskeletal treatments, offering patients the most advanced rehabilitation solutions for optimal recovery and long-term mobility. 

Under the expert guidance of Dr. Philip Saville, we integrate Emsculpt Neo with personalized physical therapy plans to maximize post-surgical healing and functional strength.

Patient Report

Here’s what one of our patients has to say about their MIS lumbar fusions treatment:

Dr Saville fixed my back.. I could not even walk around the block without being in such pain you could not belive. Now I feel no pain and can swim and walk and dance .. and in a couple of months back to working out...I feel great !! I had two rods and a spacer and a discetomy and with very little incisions ...it was about 5 weeks and you can barely see them ..He and his staff are Super nice and helpful and friendly ..I highly recommend Dr Saville and I have ...and now my family and friends, if need be.. he will be the doctor that they will go see
