All about the Anti-cellulite massage and its benefits.
There’s no better way to start the new year by starting to take care of yourself more. 2021 is now a new opportunity to make your health a priority. And you can start with a simple relaxation and a beneficial method like a massage. How about an anti-cellulite massage?
We’ve heard so much about the anti-cellulite massage and how great it is for the body over the years. But what is cellulite? What factors cause the creation of cellulite? Can massage really help with its’ improvement?
Let’s start with the basics.
What is cellulite?
Cellulite is the sum of lumps and dimples that are formed on the surface of the skin. It is usually visible on thighs, buttocks and stomach. This condition is present more often in women than in men and different reasons can cause it.
When you have cellulite the connective tissue under the skin gets stretched out and is much weaker. This leads up to the creation of bumpy skin. What helps in reducing cellulite is anti-cellulite massage. But before we go into details about the massage let’s check what causes cellulite.
What causes cellulite?
There are multiple reasons that can cause cellulite but the most common ones are as below:
- Weight loss and weight gain in a short period of time
- Unbalanced diet and too many carbohydrates
- Pregnancy
- Genetic reasons and age.
What is an anti-cellulite massage?
Anti-cellulite massage is one of the most effective ways to combat cellulite. It is a special kind of massage that is created to specifically target cellulite cells and help reduce it. Unlike a full body massage, this massage focuses on the cellulite area during the entire duration of the massage.
This massage works by massaging the affected areas by using special techniques of pinching and rolling to break down the underlying fat cells. Furthermore, it helps with blood circulation in the affected areas, hence it leads to the acceleration of the recovery process.
What is the procedure?
Usually, the massage therapist begins by massaging the hips, thighs, legs and feet to activate the areas. This activation leads to increased blood circulation and the flow of energy throughout the body. Once the massage therapist activates the main points, he/she starts working from the buttocks down to the feet by gently kneading. Pinching and rolling techniques will follow after to help break up the fatty tissues and the deposits under the skin.
This kind of massage is one of the most well-known and most effective ways to combat cellulite. We recommend anti-cellulite massage as part of your regular weekly regime in order to make cellulite disappear. But keep in mind that only doing a massage won’t help to combat cellulite. In order to say goodbye to cellulite you’ll need to commit to a healthier lifestyle. This means that a healthy diet full of vitamins/minerals, exercise and lots of water should be followed in order for the massage to have a much more rapid effect.
