FAQ

MedWave™ Whole Body Vibration (WBV) therapy is a non-invasive wellness treatment that uses controlled mechanical vibrations to stimulate muscles, circulation, and the nervous system. By standing or sitting on a vibration platform, the body responds with reflexive muscle contractions that support strength, mobility, and overall physical wellness.

Whole body vibration works by sending gentle, multi-directional vibrations through the body. These vibrations activate muscle fibers, enhance neuromuscular communication, and increase blood flow. The MedWave™ system uses calibrated frequencies to ensure safe, effective, and comfortable stimulation tailored to individual needs.

MedWave™ WBV therapy may help:

• Improve muscle strength and tone
• Increase circulation and lymphatic drainage
• Enhance balance, coordination, and posture
• Support flexibility and joint mobility
• Promote recovery and reduce muscle stiffness
• Complement fitness, rehabilitation, and wellness programs

Yes, MedWave™ Whole Body Vibration therapy is considered safe for most individuals when used under professional guidance. The system is designed with precise frequency control to minimize strain while maximizing benefits. A consultation is recommended before starting, especially for individuals with medical conditions.

MedWave™ WBV is suitable for a wide range of clients, including: Active individuals and athletes People with sedentary lifestyles Older adults seeking balance and strength support Individuals in rehabilitation or recovery programs Anyone looking for low-impact wellness solutions

A typical MedWave™ WBV session lasts between 10 and 20 minutes, depending on individual goals, comfort level, and whether it is combined with other Medwave therapies.

Frequency varies based on personal goals. Many clients benefit from 2 - 3 sessions per week. Your provider can help create a personalized plan.

Whole body vibration therapy may support weight management by activating muscles, increasing circulation, and enhancing metabolic activity. While it is not a replacement for diet and exercise, MedWave™ WBV can be a valuable complement to a healthy lifestyle.

Yes. MedWave™ WBV therapy stimulates blood flow and encourages lymphatic movement, which may help reduce swelling, support detoxification, and improve tissue health.

Most clients describe the sensation as gentle, rhythmic, and relaxing. The vibration intensity can be adjusted, making the experience comfortable for beginners while still effective for advanced users.

No. MedWave™ does not require downtime. Clients usually return to normal daily activities immediately after their session.

Results vary between individuals. MedWave™ may support visible inch reduction, improved body contour, and cellular energy support over time. Outcomes depend on consistency, lifestyle factors, and individual response.

MedWave™ is generally positioned as a wellness and aesthetic support therapy. It is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent medical conditions unless provided under the direction of a qualified medical professional.

MedWave™ does not involve surgery, injections, freezing, or heat-based tissue destruction. It works by supporting natural biological processes rather than physically removing tissue.

Red light therapy is a non-invasive wellness treatment that uses low-level red (and sometimes near-infrared) light to support normal cellular function. The light is absorbed by cells and may help support energy production, tissue repair, and overall cellular health.

Red light therapy works by delivering specific wavelengths of light to the skin and underlying tissue. This light is absorbed by mitochondria inside cells, which play a role in producing cellular energy (ATP). Supporting this process may assist the body’s natural repair and recovery functions.

Red light therapy is generally considered safe when administered correctly by trained providers. It is non-invasive, does not use heat, needles, or chemicals, and is typically pain-free. As with any wellness treatment, individual suitability should be discussed with a qualified practitioner.

No. Red light therapy is typically painless. Most people experience a gentle warmth or no sensation at all during treatment.

Red light therapy may help support: Skin health and appearance Collagen production Reduced inflammation Tissue repair and recovery General wellness and energy support Results vary between individuals, and ongoing research continues to explore these effects.

The number of sessions varies depending on individual goals and response. Some people notice changes after a few sessions, while others benefit from consistent treatments over several weeks. Your provider will guide you based on your needs.

Sessions typically last between 10 and 30 minutes, depending on the treatment area and protocol being used.

Red light therapy is generally used as a supportive or complementary wellness therapy. It is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent medical conditions unless specifically prescribed by a qualified medical professional.

Research suggests red light therapy may help support the body’s natural inflammatory response by encouraging cellular processes involved in repair and recovery. However, results vary and ongoing research is still developing in this area.

No. Red light therapy does not require downtime. Most people return to normal daily activities immediately after treatment.

Red light therapy may be suitable for individuals looking for a non-invasive option to support skin health, recovery, or general wellness. Suitability depends on personal health factors and should be discussed with a practitioner.

Red light therapy does not involve injections, surgery, heat, or chemicals. It works by supporting natural biological processes rather than forcing physical change, making it appealing to people seeking gentle, non-invasive options.

Lipolysis injections are a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure used to reduce localized fat deposits. The treatment involves injecting a substance into targeted fatty tissue to break down fat cells, which the body then processes naturally over time.

Lipolysis injections work by disrupting the membrane of fat cells in the treated area. Once these fat cells are broken down, the body gradually removes them through natural metabolic processes.

Certain injectable substances used for lipolysis; such as Phosphatidylcholine and deoxycholic acid - are approved by regulatory authorities (including the FDA in the United States) for specific uses, such as reducing stubborn fat pockets in certain specific areas of the body.

The most well-known and approved treatment area is submental fat (under the chin). Some practitioners also treat other small, localized fat pockets, depending on clinical judgement and patient suitability.

No. Lipolysis injections are not intended for weight loss. They are designed for targeted fat reduction in specific areas and are best suited for individuals close to their ideal body weight.

Results develop gradually. Visible changes often begin to appear several weeks after treatment, as the body processes the disrupted fat cells. Multiple sessions may be required for optimal results.

The number of sessions varies depending on the treatment area, amount of fat, and individual response. Many patients require multiple treatments spaced weeks apart to achieve their desired outcome.

When fat cells are destroyed through approved lipolysis treatments, they do not regenerate in the treated area. However, remaining fat cells can still enlarge if overall body weight increases.

Discomfort levels vary. Most providers use local anesthesia or numbing agents. Patients may experience temporary discomfort during and after treatment, along with swelling or tenderness.

Common and expected side effects include:

• Swelling
• Bruising
• Redness
• Tenderness or firmness at the injection site

These effects are usually temporary and resolve over time.

Most patients can return to normal daily activities shortly after treatment. However, swelling and bruising may last for several days or longer, depending on the individual and treatment area.

Lipolysis injections may be suitable for adults who:

• Are in good overall health
• Are near their ideal body weight
• Have localized fat deposits
• Are seeking a non-surgical contouring option

A consultation is required to determine suitability.

This treatment may not be suitable for individuals with:

• Significant loose skin
• Large volumes of excess fat
• Certain medical conditions
• Unrealistic expectations

Your provider will assess risks and suitability during consultation.

Lipolysis injections are minimally invasive and do not involve surgery or general anesthesia. Liposuction is a surgical procedure that physically removes fat using suction. Each option has different risks, recovery times, and outcomes.

When performed by a trained, licensed medical professional using approved products, lipolysis injections have an established safety profile. Using unapproved substances or unqualified providers increases the risk of complications.

No. Results vary between individuals and depend on factors such as treatment area, number of sessions, and individual biology. No cosmetic procedure can guarantee specific outcomes.
