MODERN TOOLS
FOR
WEIGHT AND FAT LOSS, MUSCLE TONING
Medical equipment for
Weight loss, muscle toning, treatment of lax abdomen.
PRINCIPLE
Muscle contraction is the basis of any exercise .It occurs when the signals from the brain reaches via nerve to a particular muscle, leading to contraction of all fibers in a muscle.
Electron microscopic view of muscle fibers contraction
Contraction of muscle fibers, utilize fat as energy on repeated contraction at high frequency leading to fat loss and strengthening of muscle.
MEDICAL EQUIPMENT FOR WEIGHT LOSS
-
Micro processor based electronic stimulating medical equipments are used to generate electrochemical signals to stimulate muscles, imitating exactly the signals that the muscles receive from the brain.
-
The weak electronic pulses are delivered to selected group of muscles causing them to contract and relax, without any conscious effort on your part.
-
In the process ,energy is burnt from fats which are deposited in and around the muscles.
-
At the same time muscles are strengthened and are toned up.
ADVANTAGES
-
It is a passive way of exercising muscles of the body and thus can supplement the active exercises done at home.
-
Pace of this passive exercise is totally controllable and many times faster than the voluntary physical exercise.
-
It strengthens and tones up the muscles and at the same time results in fat loss.
-
Inch loss is achieved due to muscle toning.
-
It is equivalent to doing heavy exercises and thus results in rapid utilization of calories ,burning of fats and toning of muscles.
-
Doesn't require any effort on your part, you lie down comfortably while therapy is given.
-
Saves time, as only 45 minutes sitting is equivalent to heavy exercise done for hours.
-
Only way to loose weight in bed ridden patients and patients of spinal diseases who can not undertake active exercises.
-
The results achieved are permanent ,provided balanced diet and mild recommended exercises are included in daily schedule in future.
-
It increases the basal metabolic rate of the body thus helping to burn more calories at rest .
-
It also resets the satiety center (which regulates appetite) of brain back to normal resulting progressively in bringing back abnormal appetite to normal.
-
It helps in increasing general circulation of body resulting in better oxygenation of tissues, prevents clot formation in bed ridden patients and favorable effects on blood pressure. Besides it is psychologically relaxing.
-
It has favorable effect ,in lowering sugar and cholesterol levels of blood which can be of further advantage in patients of diabetes and lipid abnormalities.
-
Same equipment can be used to treat arthritic patients by strengthening muscles around a joint.
-
It is absolutely safe and harmless. Same equipments are being used in major hospitals for treatment of paralysis utilizing same principles of muscle stimulation.
LIMITATION
Only limitation is that it requires expert medical supervision. However this should not be a hindrance in achieving our goals of a slim, trimmed and healthy body.
