• Wrap application frequency: Once a week for a refresh or consistently for 6 weeks for complete body regeneration.

MASSAGES

One of the most effective and well-known methods for removing cellulite is massage. Local treatment of problem areas accelerates tissue circulation, which improves the exchange of substances in the body and accelerates the elimination of harmful, toxic substances that affect the formation of cellulite. It is very important to point out that anti-cellulite massage must be performed exclusively by a physiotherapist or masseur trained in these techniques. Since cellulite is located 3-5 mm below the surface of the skin, massage therapy must be professional in order to avoid bruises and ruptured capillaries.

Massage therapy includes:

• Preparatory phase - application of massage oil which helps the movements to go smoothly. The thighs are lightly massaged with the whole palms, starting from the knees upwards.
• Massage with hands and fingers - larger areas of the skin are covered and massaged with the whole hand, while smaller areas are grasped and kneaded only with the fingers. This technique lifts cellulite and toxins and helps break them down.
• Massage with the fists – the movement of the fists in various directions breaks the lumps of cellulite by kneading them.
• „S massage“ – one longitudinal part of the skin surface is grasped with the fingers of both hands and the letter S is made.
• Relaxing massage – performed with whole palms and movements like "squeezing a towel".
• FINISHING – like the preparatory phase, the thighs are massaged with the whole palms in long and light movements from the bottom up.
• Along with each professional therapy, home care and maintenance of achieved anti-cellulite results with massagers with round spines, rollers and other available tools for home use are advised.
