EmSculpt Neo in Santa Cruz
Look Your Best,
Feel Your Best
Build strength and support healing — without surgery, downtime, or dramatic overhauls.
You deserve to feel strong and comfortable in your body.
It’s common to lose strength and mobility with injury, weight loss, and aging. Even when you’re doing well, it can be frustrating when you don’t see all the benefits you expect from working out.
EmSculpt Neo in Santa Cruz offers physician-guided support for healing and building strength, so you can feel better in motion and at rest.
What is EmSculpt Neo?
EmSculpt Neo is an FDA-cleared treatment that combines two technologies to enhance muscle function and fat burning.
HIFEM (High Intensity Focused Electromagnetic technology) delivers the equivalent of 20,000 muscle contractions in just 30 minutes. It’s like doing thousands of crunches, squats, or bicep curls without the sweat or strain.
RF (Radiofrequency energy) gently warms your muscles to make them more responsive to HIFEM while encouraging your body’s natural fat metabolism.
Together, these build strength, improve tone, and support healing wherever the treatment is applied.

How EmSculpt Neo Works
We commonly treat:
- Abdomen
- Buttocks
- Quadriceps & Hamstrings
- Inner & Outer Thighs
- Calves
- Biceps & Triceps
Each session lasts 30 minutes and takes place in a comfortable, private room. You’ll remove clothing around the treatment area, then lie back while the applicator does its work.
Most people describe the sensation as deep muscle pulses combined with gentle warmth — intense, but not painful. There’s no downtime, so you can return to your usual activities right after treatment.
A Note From Dr. Atkins
Board-Certified Physician in Santa Cruz, CA
In my free time, you can find me outside: hiking, biking, or more recently, learning to sail.
That’s why fitness is so important to me. It’s not just about looking good. It’s about doing the things I want, with the people I want. (OK, maybe it’s also a little about looking good!)
With EmSculpt Neo, I help myself and others maintain a stable core, strong legs, and toned abdomen. Plus, its functional applications make it a powerful tool for healing injuries and improving surgical outcomes.
Whether you’re building strength, looking to get more toned, or recovering from an injury or surgery, let’s talk about how EmSculpt Neo can help you live your healthiest life. And if you look good while you’re doing it, more power to you!

Success With EmSculpt Neo
EmSculpt Neo FAQ
Will EmSculpt Neo help if I'm already active?
Absolutely. Many athletes and people who work out use EmSculpt Neo to break through plateaus, recover from injuries, and enhance their training results.
Will I lose weight with EmSculpt Neo?
EmSculpt Neo isn’t primarily a weight loss treatment, but it builds muscle, promotes fat metabolism, and supports your weight loss efforts. Many people notice that they are more toned and their clothes fit better.
How does this compare to surgery or liposuction?
EmSculpt Neo is completely non-invasive: no anesthesia, incisions, or recovery time. Results are more subtle but natural looking, and you gain the functional benefits of stronger muscles.
Is it safe for older adults?
Yes, EmSculpt Neo is a safe and comfortable treatment that is FDA-cleared for all adults. Dr. Atkins will design a custom plan to support your strength and healing.
How long is treatment?
EmSculpt Neo sessions last 30 minutes per body area and are typically scheduled once weekly. The specific treatment areas and number of sessions needed will depend on your goals.
How is this different from the original EmSculpt?
EmSculpt Neo combines the muscle-building HIFEM technology of the original EmSculpt with radiofrequency heating. This results in enhanced strength-building and new applications for healing and pain relief.
