In this post we are going to explain what cellulite is, how to avoid it, how to eliminate it and how you can perform massages to eliminate cellulite at home.
Before explaining how to perform cellulite removal massages at home, or why cellulite is created, we must explain what cellulite is.
Cellulite is the accumulation of localised fat nodules, the most common parts of the body being the abdomen, buttocks and legs. Now that summer is approaching, we must remember that the most important thing to prevent and eliminate cellulite is to be consistent, follow a good diet, do sport frequently and use products for the care of our skin. To make it easier for you to follow a good diet, here we leave you fruit and food that most help to combat it.
Despite the fact that they suffer from 9 out of 10 women is still the great unknown, there is a lot of taboo about it. The typical questions we usually ask ourselves are: Does cellulite disappear when we lose weight? Do anti-cellulite creams and cosmetics work? Does it disappear forever with aesthetic treatments? Are massages useful to get rid of cellulite? We will answer all these questions and many more in the following post.
To reduce orange peel skin, or cellulite, in the areas where it accumulates, we must be consistent in everything mentioned above, although to combat it more quickly and effectively it is important to take into account other aspects, such as massage to eliminate cellulite or anti-cellulite massage.
Have you ever wondered why all anti-cellulite methods include massages? It is because they are the most suitable way to eliminate everything that causes cellulite. In addition to fat deposits, we can also find large molecules that have stagnated between the cells and the lymphatic system cannot purify them on its own, thus creating cellulite.
The anti-cellulite massage consists of stimulating the lymph nodes in the adjacent areas and the most important chains, activating circulation and using heat and massage manipulations to mobilise and eliminate the nodules.
If cellulite has already appeared, there are many treatments to eliminate it, such as ultrasound, radiofrequency, mesotherapy, pressotherapy, laser, maderotherapy, lymphatic drainage or anti-cellulite massage. With the exception of mesotherapy and laser, these are the least invasive techniques to eliminate cellulite.
As mentioned before, the aim of the anti-cellulite massage is to mobilise the adipose tissue and activate the lymphatic and circulatory systems. This helps us to get rid of the fat nodules more quickly by our organism. Therefore, the anti-cellulite massage has health and beauty benefits.
It is highly recommended that you combine this technique with the lymphatic drainage or pressotherapy and, of course, as we have said before, with a healthy diet and physical exercise. Not only to reduce cellulite, but also to keep your body healthy and achieve a state of general wellbeing. On the other hand, to optimise the results of the anti-cellulite massage, it is recommended to drink a lot of water to purify toxins.
The most advisable is to do about ten sessions with a professional, ideally two sessions for the first two or three weeks and then one session a week. This is always accompanied by daily massages at home.
The most important thing for a good anti-cellulite massage, whether at home or in a beauty salon, is to choose the right anti-cellulite cream to use. The best way to do this is to consult a beauty expert.
The next step, but no less important, as we have been saying all along this post is constancy. As mentioned above, in addition to going to a centre for an anti-cellulite massage treatment, the ideal is to have a daily anti-cellulite massage before, during and after showering. In addition to accompanying this action with a healthy diet and a bit of exercise.
The ideal massage to eliminate cellulite at home begins before the shower. Start by exfoliating the skin with a horsehair mitten, using gentle, circular movements from the feet to the hips.
In order to activate the most important lymph nodes, ankles, knee and groin, we must insist on pumping a little in this area. With the same glove, in the shower, to eliminate dead cells and stimulate circulation, we must massage the thighs and the lower part of the hips. In the shower, we should also use contrasts of temperature, with hot and cold water.
When we get out of the shower we will apply the anti-cellulite cream, this time we will use our hands, to apply the cream we will rub quickly with our hands the part to work and then we knead it as if it were the dough for a sponge cake. The next movement will be to pinch the skin, maintaining this pressure for a few seconds, to finish we must perform a gentle massage, directing our movements from the feet to the groin, this massage will be done with the palm of the hand and will end when the cream has been completely absorbed.
It should be recalled that the anti-cellulite massage The homemade massage is an aid to the professional anti-cellulite massage, it can be effective on its own, but only if it is done very well.
The homemade anti-cellulite massage can be greatly helped by a lymphatic drainage or a circulatory massageYou can also do it at home. On the other hand, it is important to remember that the most important thing is to be consistent, follow a good diet and do some exercise.
