Cellulite Reduction
HOW FAT IS STORED.
The “orange peel” look or “cellulite” is formed as a three step process. The fat in the body, when not used up is stored in the adipocyte (fat) cells, and as they increase in volume, they are pushed up towards the surface of the skin and bulge out. The blood and lymph is then restricted by the increase in the cells which results in oxygen and nutrient loss. Fibrotic bonds (small muscles) are starved and when they harden, they retract down into the deeper layers of the skin, thus causing an uneven skin, or orange peel. This impairs the breakdown of the fat increasing the chances of the cellulite becoming hard and therefore harder to remove. The skin can become hard and cold to the touch, and during palpitation, it may be painful.
HOW ENDERMOLOGY WORKS
Endermology combats this by two unique processes working together. The first is the independent motorised rollers giving the cellulite a “work out” and the suction maintains that the skin is held in the chamber for the rollers to do their job. Working together they exercise the fibrotic bonds to stretch, thus allowing the blood and lymph to return to heal and replenish the area. The other effect Endermology has on the cellulite is called lipolysis, which means that it encourages the fat to liquefy and return to move around the body. In doing so we can now exercise it off. After a treatment it is a requirement that you go and do at least 30 mins of aerobic exercise to pick up your metabolism to work off the fat being moved around the body. If you don’t exercise AND you eat something unhealthy, your body sees that there is too much fat travelling around and it will store not only what you’ve eaten, but what the endermology treatment has removed from the cells, a double whammy of fat storage.
WHAT YOU FEEL DURING THE TREATMENT
In the initial treatment, we conduct a consultation with you about your concerns and the areas you want to target by completing a full body assessment. In order to do this we require you to wear your bra (ladies) and underwear. From here we determine what conditions you would like to have treated (loose skin, circulation, cellulite etc.) This allows us to tailor the treatment especially for you. You can also increase the effectiveness of your treatment by contracting and relaxing your muscles on the areas while we are treating them. This can give you a much better result and shorten the treatment program. During the treatment a body stocking is worn, (for hygiene and comfort), along with a disposable g-string. This is to protect your modesty. We can also drape modesty towels as required.
HOW MANY TREATMENTS DO I NEED
A course of treatments are required depending on your individual concerns, age and health. We can only determine this from a complete consultation and body analysis. This analysis usually costs $45, but for website customers, we will waive this fee.
