Had 'dead butt syndrome'. Then I tried a non-invasive treatment

A London clinic visit described in a lifestyle feature centers on “dead butt syndrome,” or glute weakness associated with lower back pain. The story says the author learned that sedentary work can leave glutes “practically switched off,” citing muscle-health experts who link muscle quality to longevity, blood-sugar handling and calorie burn. Seeking a non-squat approach, the article describes trying a machine marketed as the “Tesla Former” at the Geneviv Clinic in London. The device uses functional magnetic stimulation to trigger contractions—marketed as 50,000 in 30 minutes—via electromagnetic pads. The article recounts a session involving 39 exercises, describing varying movements and sensations.
