According to www. quackwatch. com, “Muscle stimulators are a legitimate medical device approved for certain conditions—to relax muscle spasms, increase blood circulation, prevent blood clots, and rehabilitate muscle function after a stroke. But many health spas and figure-enhancing salons claim that muscle stimulators can remove wrinkles, perform face lifts, reduce breast size, reduce a ‘beer belly,’ and remove cellulite. Iontophoresis devices are prescription devices that use direct electric current to introduce ions of soluble salts (i. e., medications) into body tissues for therapeutic or diagnostic purposes. The FDA considers promotion of muscle stimulators or iontophoresis devices for any type of body shaping or contouring to be fraudulent.” (Source: www. fda. gov/ora/fiars/ora_import_ia8901.html.)
