FAQ
Everything you want to know before your appointment.
The following is a carefully thought-out and curated list of the questions that several clients have asked in the past. If you have a question for us, please go through our list before getting in touch. If you still can’t find the answers you’re looking for, please contact us directly and someone on the team will be happy to assist you!
What should I wear to my appointment?
Wear comfortable clothing! The areas being treated must be exposed easily, so it is suggested to wear loose fitting clothing to your appointment. Women typically wear shorts, sweat pants and a sports bra, although we do offer a disposable bikini top and bottom if it is needed. Men generally wear athletic shorts or sweats. Please make sure to take out any piercings/jewelry in the area we will be working on, if you are not able to we ask that you tape/secure it so that it is not in the way during your treatment.
Are there any benefits for first-time customers?
Yes! We offer all first time clients $20 off their first treatment. Just mention code 'ELITE TEAM' to receive discount.
DO YOU HAVE A CUSTOMER REFERRAL PROGRAM?
Yes! Refer us to friends and family for $10 off your next treatment. They must book and receive treatment before you get credited. Each referral is $10 and there are no referral limits, they can all be used at once. Let everyone know! You will also be credited $5 for posting & tagging us on your instagram story for a full 24 hrs!
WHAT SHOULD I AVOID PRIOR TO MY APPOINTMENT?
-
Avoid alcohol. Alcohol dehydrates you, decreasing the effectiveness of the light. It also turns into fat, working against the treatment! For best results, refrain from alcohol the day before treatment.
-
Decrease Caffeine. Caffeine, like alcohol, will dehydrate you which will lessen your results. Completely eliminate caffeine if possible.
-
Limit food intake. Eat only a light meal or nothing 2 hours before and after your scheduled appointment. Avoid foods high in fat and carb content.
SHOULD I BE DRINKING WATER, HOW MUCH?
Yes, it is crucial that you are hydrated for optimal results. A minimum of 64 ounces or more if possible of water per day will help your body process and flush fat from your system. Stay hydrated before your treatment and after! The red and infrared lights are attracted to well-hydrated cells. Do not worry if you did not bring water post treatment, one will be provided for you!
WHEN CAN I EXPECT TO SEE RESULTS?
Many clients see results immediately after their first session and may visualize an even further change within the following three days. However, our treatments require upkeep and at least six to ten sessions to see ample results.
HOW OFTEN CAN YOU PERFORM ULTRASOUND CAVITATION?
Ultrasound Cavitation therapy can be safely performed up to 2 times per week, with 3 days between each procedure if you want to work on the same area. You are able to work on other body parts before this time line.

WHAT IS VIBRATION THERAPY & WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS?
With whole-body Vibration Therapy, a passive and highly-effective form of exercise, you stand, sit or lie on our machines that have an oscillating, vibrating platform powered by sound waves (not motors as in traditional ones). Our machine is practically noiseless. With each vibration, the machine delivers energy to your body, which forces your muscles to contract and relax dozens of times each second. Research shows that it helps improve muscle strength and that it may help with weight loss when you also cut back on calories. It was initially studied and conducted by the Russian cosmonauts to counteract the effects of the zero-gravity environment of space, such as atrophy of muscles, bone density loss and other negative effects on the body.
What are the benefits ?
10 minutes a day of whole-body vibration several times a week may help with weight loss, muscle toning, burning fat, improving flexibility, enhancing blood flow and lymphatic drainage, reducing muscle soreness after exercise, building strength and decreasing the stress hormone cortisol. It increases bone density and balance in older adults. It also helps with mood stability, improving sleep, diabetes management, pain management and reducing cellulite!
IS BODY CONTOURING PAINFUL?
Our treatments are all completely painless. You may expect to experience a buzzing sensation in your ears with Ultrasonic Cavitation during your session. Most clients like to fall asleep during their sessions as you are in a relaxing, dim, positive environment. If you ever feel any discomfort or pain with any treatment, let us know and we will adjust the treatment. We love open communication here at Elite Body Studio!
HOW MANY TREATMENTS DO I NEED?
The ideal number of treatments depend on how many inches and how much bodyfat you would like removed. Typically, 4 treatments provide a significant difference in before and after comparisons, but 6 treatments is more ideal. You may continue the treatments after 6 if you continue to achieve good results. We typically have a better picture once you get your first session done. If you are looking for more additional fat reduction, treatments can be continued weekly until you achieve your desired results as long as you continue to respond.
WHAT KIND OF POST TREATMENT CARE IS RECOMMENDED?
For patients wanting to turn back the hands of time without any further disruptions to their daily activities, our treatments are ideal - there is no surgery, no anesthesia, no scars, and no downtime. You can return to your regular routine immediately after these total body treatments! We also offer post treatment care for at home use you can purchase to help you achieve and keep results, which we highly recommend for most, if not all clients.
DO YOU TAKE ALL FORMS OF PAYMENT?
No, although we prefer cash we also take Zelle, Venmo, and Apple Pay. We do not take credit cards at this time. Check back soon for more payment options!
ARE OTHER PEOPLE ALLOWED TO COME WITH ME TO MY SESSION?
Only the person with the appointment is allowed in the studio. No kiddos, babies, friends, family, partners, pets, or extra people are allowed in at this time. Exception: if you are under the age of 18 you must have a parent or legal guardian sign our consent form and parent or guardian must come with you to your appointment with valid I.D. No exceptions.
WHAT IF I READ THROUGH THE TREATMENTS AND I STILL DON'T KNOW WHICH ONE IS BEST FOR ME?
That is completely okay! Get in touch with us and someone from our team will get back to you within a few hours to help discuss what treatment is best for you! Text consultations available before booking for a stress free process (highly recommend especially for all first time clients).
