ION BODY is a 20 min full body workout combining low impact movements with electrical stimulation. 90% of your skeletal muscles are stimulated to create a more intense contraction than conventional training.

ION BODY sessions are for 18s and over. Impulses are gentle on muscles and joints whereas conventional training can cause strain, impingements, tenderness, tears, ruptures, and inflammation. EMS is possible if electrotherapy and moderate strength training is acceptable. If unsure, speak to your GP for advice.
