When muscles become weak, underactive, or imbalanced—whether from injury, surgery, or periods of reduced activity where muscles are no longer being fully used—it can affect how your entire body moves and feels.
At Gióva Aesthetics + Wellness, Emsculpt NEO Joint + Muscle Recovery is designed to support muscle function, improve stability, and help restore movement in a way that feels both effective and sustainable.
Using advanced HIFEM® (High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic) energy combined with radiofrequency, this treatment stimulates powerful muscle contractions that go beyond what you can achieve through exercise alone. These contractions help re-educate muscles, improve neuromuscular connection, and support the structures that protect and stabilize your joints.
If you’re in the greater Salt Lake City area, schedule a consultation at Gióva to see if Emsculpt NEO Joint + Muscle Recovery is the right fit for your recovery, mobility, and performance goals.
Emsculpt NEO at a Glance
Emsculpt NEO uses HIFEM® technology to generate supramaximal muscle contractions—far more intense than what can be achieved voluntarily.
These contractions activate deep muscle fibers that are often difficult to engage, especially after injury or periods of inactivity.
This process helps:
Rather than isolating aesthetics, this approach focuses on how your body functions—helping restore strength and improve how you move.

When an injury occurs—or after surgery—your body naturally reduces movement in the affected area. While this is necessary for healing, it often leads to muscle atrophy, decreased strength, and poor neuromuscular activation. In simple terms: when a muscle isn’t being used, it begins to weaken, shrink, and lose its ability to function properly.
Emsculpt NEO Joint + Muscle Recovery helps address this by keeping muscles actively engaged—even when you’re unable to fully use them on your own.
Using HIFEM® technology, the treatment stimulates deep muscle contractions that help:
This makes it a valuable addition to recovery plans following injury, surgery, or extended inactivity—helping you return to strength and movement more efficiently.

Emsculpt NEO Joint + Muscle Recovery is often used as part of a broader wellness or recovery plan to support:
Upper Body Support
Core & Back Stability
Lower Body Recovery
Foot & Nerve Support
This treatment is not a replacement for physical therapy or medical care but can be an effective complement to help improve strength, activation, and recovery.
Emsculpt NEO Joint + Muscle Recovery goes beyond traditional strengthening by supporting how your body performs as a whole.
Muscle Re-Education: Helps retrain muscles that have become weak or inactive due to injury, surgery, or inactivity.
Joint Stability & Support: Stronger muscles help stabilize joints, reducing strain and improving alignment.
Improved Circulation: Enhanced blood flow supports recovery and tissue health.
Range of Motion & Mobility: Improved muscle function can help support better movement patterns and flexibility.
Pain & Tension Support: May help reduce discomfort associated with muscle imbalance, overuse, or chronic strain.
Each Emsculpt NEO session lasts about 30 minutes and requires no downtime. During treatment, you will feel strong, rhythmic muscle contractions in the targeted area. These contractions are controlled and therapeutic, designed to activate muscle without placing stress on joints.
After treatment, many patients report increased muscle engagement, improved stability and control, and reduced tension in surrounding areas. Treatment intensity is adjusted to your comfort level and the targeted muscle group, and you can return to normal daily activity immediately after your session.
