"After having my daughters my body changed and my core strength was turned upside down," Barrymore said in a press release. "EMSCULPT was ideal for me as it complemented my current routine which consists of a mix of dance cardio and Pilates to target my core muscles specifically. A little over a month post-treatment, I can visibly see the results and can tell a difference in my workouts – I feel that my core is much more engaged, improving my workouts and motivating me to push myself even further."

The company called Barrymore an "ideal partner" because of her healthy lifestyle and commitment to wellness.
