A three-week course of abdominal magnetic stimulation was linked to a small decrease in waist size in healthy adults, even when their overall weight did not change.

A study found that healthy adults who received 10 sessions of abdominal magnetic stimulation over three weeks experienced an average decrease of 2.76 cm in waist size, even without losing body weight.

A non-invasive abdominal stimulation technique used over three weeks did not cause people to lose weight, meaning any reduction in waist size or fat thickness was not caused by losing overall body weight.

A treatment using magnetic pulses on the abdomen for three weeks did not cause weight loss in healthy adults, but it did reduce waist size and fat thickness in the area, suggesting the effect stayed local and did not affect overall body weight.

A non-invasive technique using magnetic stimulation on the abdomen, applied over three weeks, was associated with an increase in abdominal muscle thickness and a decrease in underlying fat thickness, without changes in overall body weight.

Healthy adults who received 10 sessions of functional magnetic stimulation said they felt more satisfied with how their abdomen looked and believed their muscles had become stronger, even though their weight did not change.
