Anti-cellulite massage is performed by combining various manual techniques. The objective is to combine mechanical-biochemical effects to achieve toning, drainage, and improved superficial and deep circulation to reduce orange peel skin appearance and alleviate lower limb heaviness typical during warm seasons.
The massage is performed on the entire lower limbs, gluteal area, and trochanteric region, with possible extension to hips and abdomen. To combat cellulite, manual techniques progress from superficial to deep, increasing the treatment area temperature and promoting cellular exchange.
The second phase focuses on mobilizing excess fluids toward main lymphatic and venous pathways. Rhythmic and deep effleurage techniques drain toxins and metabolic waste from subcutaneous and fascial layers. Effectiveness is achieved through the therapist's hand positioning and gravity assistance. The limb may be elevated during treatment to enhance fluid displacement and prevent stagnation.
The basal metabolism of massaged tissues remains accelerated post-treatment, especially when combined with physical exercise, proper nutrition, and professional cream application. To maintain continuous biochemical effects, daily application of a professional cream such as Zein Obagi Cellulite Control is recommended during the treatment period.
Anti-cellulite massage is effective for early stages of cellulite and can be combined with other specific treatments such as shock waves and oxygen-ozone therapy, providing both therapeutic and relaxation benefits.
For optimal results, two massages per week are recommended, complemented with home application of Zein Obagi Cellulite Control cream.
