What Is Cellulite?
Cellulite is a term for the formation of lumps and dimples in the skin. Fat deposits push through the connective tissue beneath the skin, making this uneven appearance on the surface.

Between 80 and 90 percent of women, all weights and sizes will probably experience cellulite in their lifetime. Cellulite can appear on the hips, thighs, bottom, and sometimes on the tummy and under the upper arms.

Anti-Cellulite Massage Therapy and Lymphatic Taping

What is Anti-Cellulite Massage?
Anti-cellulite massage’s main goal is to improve lymphatic drainage. It can also help stretch connective tissue. Therefore reduces cellulite by rolling and kneading affected body parts to improve blood circulation and the flow of nutrients to problem cellulite areas.

Anti-cellulite massage is a non-invasive procedure that is a natural way to reduce the appearance of cellulite. Cellulite massages apply deep pressure to areas of the skin affected by cellulite. This pressure can both break up toxins and fat while simultaneously improving blood circulation.

What is Lymphatic Taping?
Lymph taping is a part of the therapeutic Taping Concept and is applied to stimulate lymphatic drainage. The tape lifts the skin a little through which the lumen of the lymph opens capillaries. The pressure on the blood vessels reduces. Lymphatic taping becomes a conductor of interstitial fluid.

Cellulite massage followed with Lymphatic taping done regularly is a non-invasive treatment that can help reduce cellulite.

Can Massage Get Rid of Cellulite?
Anti-Cellulite Massage will help you to get rid of fluids, improve blood flow and lymphatic drainage. But not eating healthy and not exercising regularly, the improvement will be barely noticeable.

How Long is a Cellulite Massage Session
Your appointment will generally last for an hour to 90 minutes.

How Often Should I Get Cellulite Massage?
I recommend coming twice a week continuously within six weeks to reduce the lumpiness and bumps you find on cellulite-affected skin.

Is There Any Downtime?
Not at all. The treatment is non-invasive; you can immediately go on with your day after your appointment.

What Areas Can Cellulite Massage Treat?
The stomach, thighs, arms, back, and butt are usually the most common areas.

The Bottom Line
Anti-Cellulite massage can help remove cellulite while combined with a proper diet and regular workouts. Even if you don’t eat the healthiest diet and skip your exercises here and there, you should receive an Anti-cellulite massage to improve blood circulation and nutrient flow in those troubled areas.

Wood Massage Therapy is a Colombian body contouring therapy that employs purposely shaped wood pieces to sculpt the body in desired areas, allowing me to move and drain accumulated fat tissue. Wood Massage Therapy is a higher-level non-invasive alternative to a regular massage for individuals with disproportionate, localized pockets of stubborn fat and cellulite.

Wood therapy instruments intensify the breakdown of fat tissue and fibrous cellulite so that it can be naturally drained with other toxins thru the lymphatic system.
