_____
Jennifer showed up to my office last month looking like she'd been through a war. She had this huge folder stuffed with medical records, appointment cards, referral slips—the whole mess. When she sat down, she just stared at me for a second.
"Dr. Nanos, I'm completely done. Two years of appointments and I feel like garbage."
Her life had become one endless medical appointment. Tuesdays at 7 AM for physical therapy because that was the only slot her insurance would cover. Thursdays she had to sneak out of work early for gynecologist visits. Saturdays meant getting screamed at by some trainer who thought planks solved everything.
Three different doctors. Three totally different explanations for what was wrong. None of them talking to each other.
The physical therapist kept insisting her glutes were the problem and loaded her up with stretches that did absolutely nothing. Her gynecologist acted like bladder leakage was just part of being a mom—surgery or deal with it, basically. The trainer pushed these insane core workouts that made her back pain ten times worse.
Nobody connected any dots. Classic healthcare fragmentation driving someone crazy.
After Jennifer finished venting about this disaster, I pulled my chair right next to hers. None of this formal doctor stuff.
"Jennifer, listen. Your back pain isn't really about your back. Your bladder problems aren't just gynecological. Your core weakness isn't a fitness thing. Everything's connected and nobody's been looking at the whole mess."
She started crying right there. But not upset crying—more like relief crying. Finally someone understood.
Here's what nobody bothered explaining to Jennifer: after pregnancy, your pelvic floor and deep core muscles need to work together like a team. When you laugh, sneeze, pick up something heavy, they should all fire at once to protect your spine and keep your organs supported.
Pregnancy screws all that up. Add stress and years of compensating for weakness, and that coordination falls apart completely. Jennifer's pelvic floor stopped supporting her bladder properly. Her deep abs basically quit, so her back muscles were doing overtime trying to hold everything together. Her posture went to hell because she had zero internal support.
She'd spent two years chasing symptoms while the actual problem—muscle coordination—got completely ignored.
I told her we needed to combine Emsculpt NEO and Emsella treatments. Both use electromagnetic technology to create muscle contractions way stronger than anything she could do herself. Emsculpt targets the deep core. Emsella works the pelvic floor. Together they retrain your body to work right again.
Jennifer's first session cracked me up. She's lying on the Emsculpt machine with this confused expression while her abs are going crazy without her doing anything. Then she tries Emsella and says, "This is like the world's most expensive massage chair is secretly working out my vagina."
No sweating, no pain, no trying to figure out which muscles to activate. The machines do everything.
Three weeks later Jennifer texts me from her daughter's violin recital: "Dr. Nanos, what the hell. Two hours on those awful metal chairs and my back feels fine."
Week five she sends me this video from her nephew's birthday party. Sky Zone with trampolines everywhere. There's Jennifer jumping around with all the kids, laughing like crazy. No leg crossing, no bathroom anxiety, no back pain afterwards.
But the mental change was bigger than the physical stuff. Jennifer stopped living like her body might fail her any minute. She quit planning every outing around bathroom locations. Stopped avoiding activities because they might hurt.
The treatments fit perfectly into her crazy schedule too. Half hour sessions, regular clothes, no recovery time. Jennifer comes during lunch and goes straight back to meetings.
I explain it to patients like rewiring muscle memory. Those intense contractions build new neural pathways that stay there long after treatment ends. Your body remembers how to support itself automatically.
Six months later Jennifer's living totally differently. Tennis twice a week. Laughing freely. Not managing some endless list of what she can't do anymore.
This is exactly what pisses me off about modern medicine. Jennifer wasted two years and probably ten thousand dollars treating symptoms while the real problem never got addressed.
She told me last week she wishes she'd found this approach years ago instead of running between specialists who only saw tiny pieces of her situation. But at least she found it before giving up completely.
Bottom line: feeling broken after having kids isn't actually required. Sometimes you just need someone who sees how everything fits together instead of treating you like a collection of separate problems.

- Emsculpt NEO rebuilds deep core coordination
- Emsella restores pelvic floor function
- Thirty-minute sessions during lunch breaks
- Addresses root causes, not just symptoms

At Kind Health Group, we’re committed to helping you achieve your body sculpting goals with the latest and most effective technologies. If you’ve been exploring non-invasive body contouring treatments, you’ve likely come across Emsculpt Classic and Emsculpt NEO. Both are revolutionary devices designed to tone muscles and reduce fat, but what sets them apart? Here’s a detailed comparison to help you decide which treatment aligns with your goals. What is Emsculpt Classic? Emsculpt Classic is the original body sculpting device that introduced the world to HIFEM (High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic) technology . By delivering intense, muscle-contracting energy, it simulates the effects of 20,000 crunches, squats, or other targeted exercises in just one 30-minute session. Key Benefits of Emsculpt Classic: Muscle Toning : Builds muscle in areas like the abdomen, buttocks, arms, and legs. Non-Invasive: No surgery or downtime required. Quick Treatments: Sessions are typically 30 minutes. Pain-Free: Feels like an intense workout without the sweat. While Emsculpt Classic focuses solely on muscle building, it’s an excellent choice for individuals already close to their ideal body weight but looking to add definition and strength. What is Emsculpt NEO? Emsculpt NEO takes the innovative muscle-building technology of the Classic and levels it up by incorporating radiofrequency (RF) energy. This dual-action device simultaneously tones muscles and reduces fat, making it a more comprehensive solution for body contouring. Key Benefits of Emsculpt NEO: Fat Reduction: The RF energy heats the fat cells, leading to an average of 30% fat reduction in the treated area. Muscle Building: Similar to the Classic, it delivers HIFEM energy for intense muscle contractions. Dual Treatment: Targets both fat and muscle in a single session. Suitable for More Body Types: With the added fat-reduction capability, Emsculpt NEO works well for individuals with a BMI of up to 35. How to Choose Between Emsculpt Classic and Emsculpt NEO Choose Emsculpt Classic if you’re focused solely on building and toning muscle. This is ideal for individuals who are already lean but want to enhance their muscle definition. Choose Emsculpt NEO if you want a dual benefit of fat reduction and muscle building. It’s especially effective for individuals looking to target stubborn fat while simultaneously toning their muscles.
