WHAT IS THE TESLAFORMER™
TESLAFormer™ uses Functional Magnetic Stimulation (FMS) to stimulate muscle contractions which is much higher than what the body can typically achieve through exercise. TESLAFormer™ is the only system capable of conducting up to 50,000 contractions in one 30-min session in all muscle groups.
WHAT IS IT USED FOR?
TESLAFormer™ excels in muscle development in aesthetic programs. It also offers basic therapies and physical rehabilitation therapies. TESLAFormer™ is the only system that can work with up to 24 different frequencies within the same program / session on the treated area.
WHAT IS THE TECHNOLOGY?
A special magnetic field is generated by a pulse of current inside the Tesla Electro-Magnetic Mechanism, and this induces a current that triggers the motor nerve system of the body, stimulating the targeted muscles to contract, and helping to boost circulation and nutrition.
WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES OF FMS TECHNOLOGY?
- Allows deep penetration into tissue
- FMS allows stimulation of deep muscle structures that cannot be reached by other modalities
- FMS is painless, noninvasive and thus suitable for patients where other technologies cannot be used
- FMS effectively stimulates muscle tissue without direct skin contact
- No negative side effects are known in the literature as long as contraindications are taken into account
WHO IS IT SUITABLE FOR?
TESLAFormer™ is suitable for anyone who wants to tone and strengthen their muscles. Best results are seen from people who are relatively fit and maintain a healthy lifestyle.
IS TESLAFORMER™ TREATMENT A WEIGHT LOSS PROGRAM?
No. TESLAFormer™ is not a weight loss treatment. It works best on clients who are in better shape with a BMI below 25. For those with a high BMI, they will still benefit from the treatment which will develop muscles behind the layer of fat tissue, but the result may take a longer time to be visible. To shed excessive kilograms, healthy diet and regular excises is the key. Check out our other treatments, such as BallancerPro lymphatic drainage and HYPOXI low impact training, which can help you achieve weight loss goals faster.
DOES IT HURT?
TESLAFormer™ is a highly tolerable treatment. The sensation is new to most patients, contracting muscles at a fast and effective rate without causing discomfort. No pain management is involved in the treatment.
IS THERE ANY DOWNTIME?
The TESLAFormer™ treatment is non-invasive, painless and has no known side effects. You will be encouraged to concentrate on muscle contraction during the stimulation. This facilitates the implementation of active learning exercises.
WHAT IS THE TREATMENT COURSE?
Each session takes 30 minutes. We recommend a minimum of 4 treatment sessions. For more advanced treatment, 6 – 10 treatments will be required. Therapy is performed two or three times per week, with at least one day break between each session.
WHAT AREAS DOES THE TESLAFORMER™ TREAT?
- Abdomen
- Gluteus muscles
- Hamstring area
- Arms
- Any muscle areas except in the chest area and head.

WHAT ARE THE SIDE EFFECTS OF TESLAFORMER™
TESLAFormer™ treatment is non-invasive and painless. There is no down time and you can resume to normal activities immediately after the treatment. There are no known side effects. Some clients may experience temporary and mild reactions, such as tenderness and redness around the treatment areas. These symptoms usually will disappear in a few hours. Like any other treatment, TESLAFormer™ treatment may involve risks or complications to some clients. If you have any medical concerns, you must seek medical advice prior to receiving the treatment.
WHAT DOES THE TREATMENT INVOLVE? WHAT SHOULD I PREPARE?
TESLAFormer™ is an in-and-out procedure.
- Eat 2 hours before the treatment time (similar to exercise)
- Wear comfortable clothing, like active or gym wear, which allows flexibility for correct positioning during the treatment. It is important that you do not have any metal accessories in the treatment areas, such as metal studs in jeans. Compression tight wear is not recommended as it may restrict blood circulation.
- You are fully clothed throughout the treatment, either sitting or lying down.
- TESLAFormer™ paddles are closely fitted on the targeted muscle areas. Electromagnetic waves that cause muscle contractions are induced from the paddles. Treatment starts at a low intensity. The intensity is adjusted and gradually increased according to individual tolerance level. Once the tolerance intensity is reached, the muscle will adapt and the intensity will be increased again every few minutes.
- After the treatment finishes, you can resume your daily activities. No down time is required. Some clients may feel a bit warm and tender on the treatment area which is normal. These symptoms are usually mild and will subside in a few hours.
- Drink plenty of water after the treatment to facilitate the removal of metabolic wastes. Limit carb intake to optimize results.
