In the fight against the "orange peel", the beauty industry has stepped far forward. Even if you immediately take away radical measures such as liposuction, a wide range of procedures remains: body wrap, mesotherapy, sauna, massage for cellulite, myostimulation, etc. As you know, only a set of procedures contributes to the reduction of skin tuberosity. Under the complex in this case is understood:
- Proper nutrition.
- Sports / fitness.
- Cosmetic procedures.
In other words, trusting only one point is pointless; it is important to devote enough time to each point.
Among cosmetic procedures, however, one of the most popular is cellulite massage. Due to moderately strong tingling, rubbing, stroking, and also crushing the skin, blood circulation is improved and fatty deposits are broken. The body takes on the desired shape, while the skin takes on elasticity and a healthy color. Of course, good salons and no less good masters charge high fees for their skills. Why women have to give up "excesses" of this kind. Despair early. It is possible to refuse salon procedures completely, but in principle it is not necessary to massage. Anti-cellulite self-massage will be no less effective.
Having learned the basic principles of anti-cellulite massage, every woman will be able to achieve a salon effect at home.
So, how to do anti-cellulite massage?
- Skin preparation. In preparation for the procedure, it is necessary to take a shower, carefully massaging the problem areas with a scrub. One of the best and at the same time very inexpensive means is considered a coffee scrub. Finish coffee (or any other) peeling should be a contrast shower, which improves blood circulation.
- Facilities. You can stock up on special massage creams from cellulite, which include caffeine, red pepper, cloves, honey (to warm the skin) or seaweed extract and menthol (for ice massage). Whichever way you prefer, the temperature difference will be a positive stress for the skin and for the "orange peel." However, caution should be taken with remedies with warming effects for those ladies who are prone to varicose veins.
- Massage for cellulite. The massage itself should be started with stroking movements, rubbing cream or oil over the body, paying special attention to problem areas. The movements should be strong, confident, from top to bottom, from the knees to the hips. Massage the abdomen should be done in a circular motion clockwise. After the skin has warmed up and slightly reddened, you can proceed to more decisive actions:
- fingers to collect the "fat roller" at the knee, slowly "rolling" it up towards the thigh. This procedure must be done three times from three sides: the external, internal, front sides of the thigh. Such a procedure will be most effective if you lean forward with straight legs and tilt to perform such a massage.
- To stand up, throw one leg on a chair or another hill, strain the muscles of the legs and make vigorous kneading movements with your fingers and palms, imagining that you are kneading the dough. Change leg.
- Get up straight, tighten the gluteal muscles, carefully flexing the buttocks with your hands. Then, with knuckles, press with pressure from the base of the buttocks to the lower back, making rubbing movements.
- The abdomen should be rubbed carefully, making circular movements in a clockwise direction. Then grab fingers with folds of fat, vigorously squeezing them and rubbing them with your fingers. For more efficiency, you need to tighten your abs. In case you are confident in the strength of your muscles, you can drive your knuckles around the stomach with a slightly noticeable pressure in the direction from the pubis to the ribs.
The effectiveness of home procedures is directly related to perseverance, patience and regularity. Listen to your body, observe its changes. Massage from cellulite is extremely effective in the complex, but do not expect instant results. In the described method of massage, you can add new movements, improve and improve them, according to the needs of the body. Remember that now you sculpt your body yourself!
