As we age, maintaining strength and mobility amidst increasing frailty becomes increasingly difficult. For others, particularly those with sports injuries, chronic pain and fatigue, traditional rigorous exercise may not be a viable option.
Introducing BIXEPS – a machine developed in Singapore that:
Now available at The Bone and Joint Centre, BIXEPS is helping seniors reclaim strength, improve mobility, and reduce pain – all with just 10-minute sessions once a week.
BIXEPS uses low-energy magnetic fields to stimulate the mitochondria in the muscle cells. This form of magnetic pulse therapy mimics some of the physiological benefits achieved through endurance exercises (such as brisk walking, cycling, or swimming) — even in patients who are unable to exercise due to injury, chronic pain, fatigue, or generalised weakness.
The therapy is administered by placing one leg into the device. While it targets that specific limb, the benefits extend systemically throughout the body via myokines and metabolic signals carried in the bloodstream. This makes BIXEPS ideal for older adults and patients who cannot participate in conventional rehabilitation or exercise routines.
BIXEPS is not intended to replace exercise but offers an effective alternative for individuals unable to participate in physical activity. Key benefits include:
BIXEPS is safe and effective for a wide range of individuals, including:
Low-Impact, High Benefit:
Unlike traditional exercise or physiotherapy, BIXEPS requires no active movement, making it particularly suitable for individuals who are frail or unable to participate in physical activity due to pain or weakness.
Minimal Time Commitment:
Each BIXEPS session requires just 10 minutes per week, significantly reducing the time commitment compared to traditional therapies that often involve longer, more frequent sessions.
Comfortable and Painless Therapy:
In terms of comfort, BIXEPS is generally painless. This gentle approach benefits patients recovering from injury or surgery by providing effective muscle activation without added strain.
Overall, BIXEPS presents a safe, efficient and patient-friendly alternative or complement to traditional exercise regimes, particularly for those unable to engage fully in physical activity.
Yes. BIXEPS uses low-energy magnetic fields that are non-ionising and safe. It meets international safety standards and is generally well tolerated.
Most users feel little to no sensation. Some describe a mild warmth or tingling in the legs, but the treatment is painless. Sessions last just 10 minutes and require no special preparation.
BIXEPS is suitable for most people, especially seniors or those who are unable to exercise. However, it’s not recommended for individuals with active electronic implants like pacemakers. If you have other types of implants, please consult your doctor.
Once a week is enough to see benefits, but twice weekly sessions can accelerate progress for some. Your provider can tailor the frequency based on your needs.
At The Bone and Joint Centre, we are proud to offer the new BIXEPS therapy to eligible patients alongside professional medical guidance.
Whether you're helping an elderly loved one improve mobility or seeking support for your own recovery, BIXEPS offers a convenient, science-backed pathway to improved strength and vitality — all without the physical strain of conventional exercise.
