The B-Shape T.M.C body sculpting treatment induces automatic magnetically-generated muscle contractions that cycle on and off during the treatment session. Each session has two 30-minute treatments with an initial test to set the levels correctly and a rotation or movement of the applicators to optimally treat the concerns of each of our individual clients. The feeling can be intense but not painful at all. With headphones on some of our patients have even fallen asleep.

The treatment is not painful. The contractions are intense and take a few minutes to get used to, therefore we increase the intensity very slowly and monitor closely. You can resume normal activities immediately after treatment with no downtime whatsoever.

It is possible to see immediate initial results after only 1-2 sessions in some cases. (Younger individuals and men have higher testosterone levels which help the body build muscle quickly.) Results build over the course of a treatment package, and continue to build after the sessions are completed. Optimal results are achieved within 6-10 weeks depending on age, gender, genetics and lifestyle factors such as diet and exercise.

Treatments can be spaced out as often as 2 days apart. For those with demanding schedules, it is no problem to space them apart by one week or even a bit more. The cumulative results will just take a bit longer to achieve.

Our treatments range from $250+ per session depending on the number of treatments purchased (single vs package) and how many applicators are used simultaneously.

Immediately following treatment there can be a feeling of fatigued muscles in the treatment area. This subsides gradually. In the following days the muscles can feel stiff and/or a little sore similar to the feeling after an intense workout.

The B-Shape machine has a program (pattern) of contractions that is designed to dissipate the lactic acid that would otherwise build up to very intense levels.

The Magnetic Resonance technology induces “supra-maximal” muscle contractions that contract 100% of the muscle fibres in the treated muscle. These contractions bypass the brain and are much more intense than what can be achieved by voluntarily contacting the muscle with exercise.

Abdomen, obliques, buttocks, arms, calves, thighs, latissimus dorsi (lats), deltoid (shoulder) and pectoral (chest). Smaller muscles can be treated via our therapeutic protocol for rehabilitation - coming soon!

Individuals with electronic implants such as a pacemaker are not eligible. Any of the following are also contraindicated: cancer, pregnancy, breastfeeding, fever, pulmonary embolism. Those with pulmonary insufficiency, heart conditions, previous stroke, in remission of cancer within 5 years, phlebitis and epilepsy are eligible only with their doctor’s permission. If you have metal implants, that area in particular cannot be treated. Similarly, treatment should be avoided in the areas of: a copper IUD (non-metal IUD ok), an implantable chamber catheter, bruise, wound, recent surgery, nerve damage, muscle injury or hernia.

Yes! The B-Shape T.M.C machine has 4 applicators, therefore it is possible to treat the stomach and arms or calves simultaneously as an example.

Drink 2 litres of water per day, eat “clean” protein, ideally 0.8-1 g protein per pound body weight, include “detox” tea or supplements such as milk thistle in your regimen. This will help the lymphatic system clear out the fat from the fat cells that the lactic acid has affected. It will also help the body heal the microscopic micro tears of the muscle that were created similar to the way an intense workout creates these tears. For the body builders out there: follow your pre-and post-workout regimen as if you had worked out.

No, similar to muscle gained by working out, muscle atrophies over time if not exercised. We recommend either exercising the treated areas on a maintenance schedule of exercise (less intense than a muscle-building exercise regimen), or coming back for one 60 min maintenance session once every 8 weeks.

The gluteus maximus muscle reacts by gaining volume and becoming firmer. It will have the appearance of looking lifted.

The abdominal muscles react by becoming firmer, closer together if separated, and increasing slightly in thickness. These muscles are not “designed” to gain bulk. The end affect is a flatter and firmer stomach.

Yes. Our technicians have passed a two-part course specific to the B-Shape T.M.C. device certified by Health Canada.

There are two ways to maintain the results: either by physical exercise, or by one maintenance treatment every 2-3 months.
