Did you know that roughly 1 million Canadians are using a drug like Ozempic and Semaglutide to manage weight loss and Type 2 diabetes? This statistic comes from a 2024 survey from Dalhousie University’s Agri-Food Analytics Lab. While most people don’t broadcast that they’re using an injectable weight loss drug, it has become surprisingly common.

Many people also don’t know is that non-invasive body contouring treatments are great complements and alternatives to Ozempic and Semaglutide. While you’re researching your options for body re-shaping, you’ll want to consider that one of the side effects of injectable weight loss drugs is muscle loss.

Take Care Of Your Muscle

improve longevity with strength trainingIt’s well-documented that Ozempic and Semaglutide often cause muscle loss along with weight loss. Further, emerging research suggests that skeletal muscle is the organ of longevity, which means that staying strong helps you live longer with a better quality of life. In other words, taking care of your muscle is pretty darn important.

This means that if you’re using an injectable weight loss drug or you’re serious about trying one, you may want to consider also using a non-invasive muscle-building device like Emsculpt Neo and Emsella.

Muscle-Building Treatments

Emsculpt Neo and Emsella are medical grade devices that use high intensity-focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) energy to strengthen targeted muscle groups. Both are approved by Health Canada and have gained so much acclaim that made-in-China knock-offs are popping up. Be careful because the knock-offs are not as effective as the real devices by BTL, a long-time manufacturer of medical and wellness devices.

Let’s look at each device more specifically. Emsculpt Neo uses radiofrequency heat and HIFEM energy to reduce fat by an average of 30% and build muscle by an average of 25%. This statistic comes from several clinical studies that use different ways of measuring muscle growth, including biopsies and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). While we can treat several different areas, the most popular treatment area is the abdomen.

Emsella uses HIFEM energy to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles. Using Emsella and Emsculpt Neo on the abdomen at the same time is known as Core to Floor therapy. It’s the only non-invasive treatment that powers up the whole core. With the right treatment plan, it makes a great difference to a person’s size and shape.
