Endermologie Information

 

Endermologie:

Endermologie is a type of massage that focuses on temporarily ridding the body of cellulite. This massage therapy was originally used as a deep tissue massage for injured horses, but it was quickly discovered that the therapy resulted in smoother skin. Nowadays, Endermologie is used in a series of treatments in order to alleviate the body of cellulite.

Endermologie is performed by using therapeutic massagers that stimulate various layers of the skin. The massager uses mild suction to pull at the skin in order to gently roll and pinch it. This concentrated massage works to break down subcutaneous fat, reduce water retention and rid the body of toxins. When this is done, collagen production is normalized and circulation is increased allowing for less build up and ultimately smother, firmer skin.

A single Endermologie treatment will not completely alleviate the body of cellulite. The skin will take on a fresher, firmer appearance, but it will only last for a few days. It is recommended that patients receive up to 15 treatments in order to sufficiently ward off the return of cellulite to the body. This massage therapy is not a cure for cellulite, but when incorporated into your daily life, it will keep the skin healthy and cellulite free.
