Abstract
A method for strengthening, toning, and firming muscle tissues, the method includes receiving parameters for operating a magnetic muscle stimulation device. The parameters include: a first waveform frequency; one or more pulse durations; a second waveform frequency that is non-zero; causing, a first alternating current having one or more first pulses to flow for a first length of time through a coil according to the first waveform frequency; causing, a second alternating current having one or more second pulses to flow through the coil for a second length of time according to the second waveform frequency lower than the first waveform frequency. The method includes repeating the causing of the first and second alternating currents for a plurality of iterations to provide a continuously pulsed time-varying magnetic field that alternates between the first and the second waveform frequencies to generate a treatment session.
