    The Treatment

    The 23MD Gym

    The 23MD Gym is a doctor-led body composition and metabolic health programme. It combines diagnostic bloods, body composition analysis, clinical body technologies and prescription support where indicated, into a single co-ordinated arc.

    Most body programmes are either purely cosmetic or purely behavioural. The 23MD Gym treats body composition as a clinical outcome — informed by bloods, supported by technology, and tracked with the same rigour as any other longevity metric.

    About

    What it is, how it works.

    How it works

    You begin with a metabolic and body composition assessment. Findings inform a tailored programme that may combine Emsculpt Neo, Emface, nutrition guidance and, where indicated, prescription metabolic support. Progress is reviewed at structured intervals with repeat composition scans.

    Why it matters

    Most body programmes are either purely cosmetic or purely behavioural. The 23MD Gym treats body composition as a clinical outcome — informed by bloods, supported by technology, and tracked with the same rigour as any other longevity metric.

    FAQs

    Your Questions, Answered

    No. It is a clinical body composition and metabolic programme, designed to complement, not replace, training and nutrition.

    The focus is on composition — fat reduction and muscle quality — rather than the scale. Many patients see weight change as a by-product.

    Frequency depends on your protocol, typically once or twice per week across 8–12 weeks.

    Yes. The programme is designed to compound across the full arc; isolated sessions are not offered.

    “Had a stressful day- the treatment was so soothing- with a gentle hand and quiet conversation, allowing me to float and all my tension drifted away, so when it came to the part that was extracting and lymph draining it all felt so "releasing " & I was able to let go of it all !!”
