The Advantages And Disadvantages Of A Cellulite Massage

It can't be denied that some forms of cellulite massage do work. Visible results can be achieved in as few as 15 sessions of 30 to 45 minutes each, once or twice a week.

After noticeable improvement from cellulite massage, all you'd need are monthly maintenance sessions for, at least, 3 years to as much as 5. Sounds pretty good, doesn't it?

But if you undergo cellulite massage therapy you will realize that all it does is offer cosmetic relief. That's why you will have to go back for regular cellulite massage – and continue spending if you want to prolong what are essentially temporary results.

Cellulite Massage – The Cons

Whether labeled as Endermologie or a simple spa cellulite massage, the procedure does not address the real cause of dimpled, cottage-cheese skin: fat pushing itself to the skin surface in uneven patterns.

And what many cellulite massage advocates won't tell you is that excessive massaging can cause the tiny capillaries in your skin to break, leading varicose or spider-web veins to appear.

Another disadvantage is that cellulite massage can't guarantee 100% results. A lot depends on the technical experience of the masseuse AND even your exercise and dietary habits!

That's why doctors recommend regular workouts and a healthy diet alongside and even as a more permanent alternative to cellulite massage.

Cellulite Massage – The Pros

You WILL see an improvement in your body's skin tone and contour if you undergo regular cellulite massage. What's more, it's achievable sans pain and the need for recovery.

Compared to other treatments, cellulite massage is indeed more affordable. It can cost you as little as $50 per session, a couple of times a week. Some spas and clinic charge only $50 per monthly maintenance session.

Another advantage is, like other forms of massage, cellulite massage has its relaxing, therapeutic effects. It can be especially pleasurable for those who have been undergoing massage treatments for years and want a much deeper massage.

This is possible as cellulite massage often makes use of devices that provide deeper action that mere kneading with human hands can provide.

One of the best advantages of cellulite massage is that when spas offer body wraps and scrubs along with it, the experience can be heavenly!

Some spas combine essential oils and herbal wraps (e.g., seaweed) in an invigorating aromatherapy treatment that can make the experience worth the expense.

Cellulite massage with essential oils relaxes all your senses and attacks dry skin. Herbal wraps have antioxidants that flush out toxins from your skin. And even if some signs of cellulite do remain, the overall appearance of your skin after a massage will indeed improve.
