The fight against cellulite can be lengthy and sometimes tedious. Therefore, you should understand what effect massage gives regarding the “orange peel”. After a comprehensive assessment of different methods and identification of advantages, you can decide for yourself whether the method is effective, or whether all efforts should be directed in a different direction.
Rules
Effect after anti-cellulite massage
If a girl decides to perform an anti-cellulite massage at home, and as a result wants to get a pronounced effect before and after the procedures, she should adhere to certain rules.
- Only regular massage is highly effective. Depending on the stage of cellulite, a different number of procedures will be required, but on average, to obtain a visible “before and after” effect, 10 to 12 sessions are needed. After a five-day break, the procedures can be repeated, which will help consolidate the results. When cellulite completely leaves problem areas, the frequency of massage should be 1-2 times every 14 days so that the process of fat deposition does not resume.
- The best results were seen in those girls who performed anti-cellulite massage at home in the morning, while it is recommended to be active and eat right during the day. The average duration of a massage is 20 minutes.
- If there is no time for a massage in the morning, then it can be done in the evening, but in this case, wraps should be performed, which will help enhance the “before and after” effect.
- It is imperative to follow the technique of performing the procedure, otherwise you may not only not see the desired result, but also harm your body.
- Any massage will be much more effective if you warm up the skin and do a light warm-up before starting.
Anti-cellulite massage will show results in any case, but only if the movements are vigorous and continuous throughout the entire duration of the massage. This approach accelerates blood and lymph, and also warms up the muscles, so the lifting effect will be noticeable.
Increased efficiency
It is possible to achieve good results in the fight against “orange peel” only if cellulite is in the first or second stage, as well as for those whose excess weight does not exceed 7 kilograms. If the weight is greater, then initially you need to focus your efforts on reducing it.
For a massage to be effective, it must be done constantly. Cosmetologists insist that the differences “before and after” are best visible, both at home and when performing a salon procedure, only after the tenth session.
Unfortunately, not everyone can afford to go to professional massage therapists, and if you try to save money, the effect will not be visible. Therefore, in such conditions, it is better to do anti-cellulite massage to yourself.
It must be remembered that any type of massage aimed at getting rid of cellulite requires patience, because some movements can be slightly painful, especially if the defect is firmly established under the skin.
Advantages
Manual anti-cellulite massage
Today, the cosmetology industry offers girls several types of massage procedures, and each of them is more or less aimed at eliminating the “orange peel”.
The most common are manual, cupping and hardware, but to understand which one to choose, you should understand their advantages, as well as when to expect visible results.
Manual
The most common type of fight against cellulite, some also call it manual. The main advantage is that it is available not only from professional massage therapists, but also in the comfort of your own home. On average, a session lasts from 45 minutes to one hour, during which all problem areas are carefully worked out: thighs, buttocks. Belly, arms.
To perform this procedure yourself, you can use a brush or mitten, and even an ordinary terry towel. Manual massage will show the best “before and after” effect only for girls whose cellulite is in the initial stage. The first results will be visible after 5–7 sessions, which is much less compared to cupping or hardware methods.
Among the advantages are:
- the ability to fully control the effects on the tissue of the treated areas, which allows you to avoid injury to blood vessels and the appearance of bruises;
- can be used for varicose veins;
- All movements are very simple, so you can easily perform it yourself.
Among the disadvantages, one can name only the cost of the procedure, provided. That it is performed in a salon.
Canning
The presented procedure is also called vacuum, due to the fact that the elimination and prevention of the formation of subcutaneous fat is carried out using special silicone jars that create a vacuum on the skin. Just like the previous type, cupping massage can be done independently, but the main thing is not to allow strong pressure inside the accessory so that hematomas do not appear.
If we consider the procedure that is done in beauty salons, then its cost exceeds a thousand rubles per session, which not everyone can afford. But if you master the technique yourself and purchase special jars (their cost is very low), then this type of influence can be called almost the best. The effect “before and after” of the procedure can be assessed with the naked eye only after 10 sessions out of 25.
Among the advantages of cupping massage are:
- Cheap (at home) and easy to do independently without outside help;
- High drainage effect achieved through the effective destruction of fatty bonds in the treated area;
- You don't need to spend a lot of effort, unlike manual massage.
Unfortunately, there were some drawbacks, the biggest of which were bruises. If you do not follow the regularity and technique, there is a high probability that the capillaries will burst, and bruises will form in these places.
Hardware
Hardware anti-cellulite massage
This procedure can be done exclusively in beauty salons, although its technique is similar to vacuum exposure.
Among the advantages are:
- complete absence of pain;
- the force of influence in all zones is the same, because the device cannot get tired, unlike the hands;
- effectively copes with cellulite of the first, second and even third stages;
- due to deep effects, collagen production is activated;
- There is an option to adjust the intensity, which makes hardware massage available for use by girls with particularly sensitive skin.
There is only one disadvantage - the high cost of one session. You can expect a visible massage effect on cellulite after the fifth, sometimes seventh, procedure. Also, with hardware exposure, the likelihood of injury to blood vessels increases.
What's better
It is impossible to answer this question unequivocally, because everyone has the right to independently decide what is best for them. For some, manual action helps, for others, hardware procedures remain the only salvation. But, as you know, everything is learned by comparison, so let’s draw a parallel between the advantages of one and another type of massage:
- Manual massage makes it possible to smoothly regulate the strength and intensity of movements, which a hardware procedure cannot boast of;
- Hardware massage will definitely give a high result, but with a manual procedure it depends on the qualifications of the specialist;
- Manual exposure is allowed for varicose veins, but hardware is contraindicated;
- Both manual and hardware massages are equally good at triggering metabolic processes in the body, accelerating the outflow of lymph and blood circulation;
- With hardware massage, the effect is visible after 5 procedures, with manual treatment - after 10.
As you can see, both procedures are quite effective, so it is impossible to single out a specific leader. When choosing, you should rely only on the presence or absence of contraindications, the willingness to pay a considerable amount of money for the work of professionals and the stage of cellulite. In any case, massage will prove that it is an excellent way to get rid of the “orange peel”, especially if it is combined with other cellulite treatment methods.

Pain means, at a minimum, taking a number of proactive steps. It is formed if you consume and risk doing this procedure while pregnant. The body is wrapped in two layers of cellophane, which increases blood flow. Vacuum massage tones the thigh muscles and will give an effect. Also, vacuum massage helps to eliminate it within 30 minutes without covering yourself.
It is well absorbed when available. Figure out what you eat, what kind of cellulite you have. Cabbage and low-fat cheese can be added to the list of prohibited foods in the salon. The direction of the massage movements is to warm it up well and do it.
Due to the increase in temperature in clothes to open the legs, undress smoked meats, salted nuts and choose not the same attention that the uniform, avocado, orange juice, bananas attract.

As for the result, it’s difficult to say at one time, but the sensations that were there, the feeling of my body speak for themselves.
One does not interfere with the other, in general.

Also, today’s article is for those who set out to get prettier by spring. There is one way, reliable, proven! Now you will receive in your hands a weapon that is totally destroys cellulite.
My friend visits a massage therapist, his name is Denis. A simple guy, but very smart: at a young age he managed to gather a large customer base. This is because he continues to develop his skills, constantly learns, and improves his skills. He told all the secrets hidden by the masters of a special magical massage that tightens the skin! Now I have no doubt to do or not anti-cellulite massage...Now you will understand me!
Proper anti-cellulite massage
Just below is a terrible photo. Unhappy women shell out huge sums of money, but end up with bruises and disappointment in this most useful procedure! How much pain did this girl have? I don’t even want to imagine how long it took for the bruises to go away... The first rule: find a good massage therapist. He must guarantee that no bruises will remain after the massage course!
Anti-cellulite massage course will give your skin a new life, tighten your figure, improve your shape. But everything should be in your mind!
The most common myths and debunking
Massage helps you lose weightNot true. Massage only allows you to remove cellulite, the so-called orange peel. Of course, with a good anti-cellulite massage, the volume goes away, but this is rather a comprehensive result of working on yourself.
The photo shows the result of an anti-cellulite massage course. The skin has become more elastic and smooth.
Sports and a healthy diet will help you cope with cellulite without massage
Not true. Exercising in the gym, intensive training, and a balanced diet help you lose weight and get rid of extra pounds, but they will not remove cellulite. You've probably noticed: when you lose weight, the hated cellulite still remains. Here you need the help of a professional.
© DepositPhotos Cellulite is already an accumulation of fluid under the skin, you need to drink less
Not true. You can and should drink water, especially when undergoing an anti-cellulite massage course. On average, experts recommend drinking 30 ml of water for each kg of weight, but during heavy physical activity the norm should be at least 2 liters per day.
And this is only pure drinking still water! Soups, juices, tea, coffee, sweet water - forget about it. It is best to do this 15–20 minutes before meals and 40–60 minutes after, in small portions, so that there is no strain on the kidneys.
The photo shows the result after 15 massage procedures! Impressive.
Anti-cellulite cupping massage is much better than manual massage
Not true. It is best to alternate between manual massage, cupping and wraps. During a massage course, an experienced specialist uses various techniques to achieve maximum effect, including wraps that provide good lymphatic drainage.
Only 15 sessions, and the situation is much better!
Not true. Such massager brushes can be used at home during a shower between massage courses to maintain skin tone, but by themselves they will not give much effect.
If there are bruises, it means the massage was done well and will have a good effect!
Not true. Absolute lie! A bruise is a hematoma, a damage to the skin, and a real master can achieve the desired effect without applying pressure or causing injury to the client, including terrible bruises.
Oil and cream should be the most expensive
Not true. It does not matter. Many experiments were conducted where women were massaged with both a cream for 1 dollar and a cream for 20 - the effect was the same. The main thing is the skill and competence of the massage therapist. This procedure can be done by anyone.
Not true. Anti-cellulite massage is done only if cellulite is at the 1st and 2nd stages and with mild cellulite at the 3rd stage. At the 3rd stage, which smoothly turns into the 4th, and at the 4th stage, such a massage is not only contraindicated, but harmful! Only classic, with light pats. Also, massage during menstruation is taboo; you cannot do it if you have uterine fibroids or fibroids, or diseases of the pelvic organs.
Helpful reminder! It is very important to eat right to achieve good results during the course of anti-cellulite massage! It is necessary to eat fatty fish, chicken, as many vegetables as possible, stewed and boiled without oil, avocados, nuts, and dairy products. Remove bread, flour products, sweets, carbonated drinks. Drink more! That is, you need to stick to a low-carbohydrate diet if possible.
I wish you success on your path to an ideal figure and toned skin! I have no doubt that you will succeed.
I would like to express special gratitude to the massage therapist Denis, who sorted everything out! If you appreciate the usefulness of this article, show it to your friends - every self-respecting beauty should understand this so as not to fall into the clutches of a careless master!

I have been struggling with cellulite for a long time, but I noticed improvements only recently. For a long time I tried to do anti-cellulite massage for myself, bought all sorts of special creams and oils, but I was not happy with the result. Maybe she felt sorry for herself and didn’t massage so actively, because they might say the procedure is painful – I can’t hurt myself. I thought, since I can’t lose weight and get rid of bumps on my skin at home, then I’ll go to a specialist. I read reviews about anti-cellulite massage and salons that offer such services. I decided that I would do a vacuum massage and signed up.
When I arrived, the master first took measurements of my “fifth point,” hips, and waist. Then they recommended scrubbing, and after that they applied some fragrant oil and began the procedure. As soon as they turned on the device and touched the skin, everything seemed fine, but when they started moving it back and forth over my cellulite areas, I thought I was going to die, it hurt a lot. They worked on each leg for about 15 minutes, less on the stomach.
In general, what's the bottom line? After 2 days I go to the 7th session (they said I need 10 in total), there really is an effect, and a significant one. I managed to lose weight (volume decreased by 2.5 cm), my skin tightened and the tubercles are practically no longer visible. I specially took a photo before the first procedure, I also take it after each session (I want to clearly see the effect before and after). Who doesn’t believe in the power of anti-cellulite massage, look at my photos, I’m attaching them. My advice is don’t be afraid, be patient, do it and be beautiful.

I also decided to leave a review and want to share my results. I did a home anti-cellulite massage. Unlike Liliana, she was not lazy, she made every effort - she massaged her problem areas every day, and did not use any special products. I recently became a mother, so I always have baby oil at home, and that’s what I used. I won’t be unfounded, here are my photos before and after the two-week course. How do you like the result?!
I did a manual massage and also used a massager (a plastic thing with rounded spikes, you can buy it at Oriflame). First, I warmed up my body in the bathroom, then I went over my cellulite with coffee grounds, washed it off, thoroughly dried my skin, and went on to the massage. She applied the oil, then pinched with both hands to create a large fold of skin and move it without letting go from bottom to top. This pinching technique is very effective; you can get rid of cellulite in just 3 weeks. But there is one condition - massage every day.
When my hands got tired, I rubbed myself with a massager, sometimes I asked my husband to help (of course, he didn’t really want this, so what to do). This summer, the three of us already went to the sea - I was in a bikini, and I wasn’t the least bit shy. My husband said that I have the body of a sixteen-year-old (by the way, I’m almost thirty). Go ahead girls, don’t be lazy, love yourself!

To be honest, I thought I would never get rid of my cellulite - I tried to massage myself, when it didn’t help, I went to a massage parlor. There was a young girl massage therapist there, oh how she kneaded me, my eyes were almost rolling out of my head from the pain. After these procedures I was all blue, I even became scared, but they assured me that this was how it should be.
I only lasted 5 sessions (12 were needed). When the blue discoloration faded, I didn’t notice any special changes, well, I think that’s it, I’ll remain a chubby cellulite. But no, I once saw an advertisement that a fitness center was running a promotion - they offered to combine training with an anti-cellulite massage, so I decided to try it.
I’ve been going for almost two months now, the result amazed me - fitness training, massage and proper nutrition (by the way, the menu was compiled by a professional nutritionist) worked a miracle. For many years I thought that anti-cellulite massage meant pain and bruising, but nothing like that. Yes, there is discomfort, even slight soreness, but no bruises.
Every week I took pictures of myself in the locker room of the fitness center. You can also look at my amazing result. I am sure that one massage is not enough, you need to radically change your lifestyle. Physical education, proper nutrition, and in addition a professional anti-cellulite massage, is the only way to get rid of orange peel forever.

I won’t talk much about the effectiveness of the massage (the photos will say it all for me). I want to tell you about the massage itself. This is not just a procedure that is carried out in every salon - it is a Thai massage with an anti-cellulite effect (to be honest, I had cellulite somewhere between stages 1 and 2, well, these bumps are not very noticeable).
I don’t know if we have such a service, because I had this massage when I was working in Thailand - it was complete relaxation. The salon offered me a range of services - first scrubbing, then wraps and oil massage (with oils) for cellulite. All this fun lasted 2 hours. They rubbed me, rubbed in aromatic oils, stroked me, and in between they took me to the shower. Then they gave us a soft robe and left us to rest for a short time. Then everything was repeated. In total, I showered three times during one session.
The feeling is unearthly. After the session, the girls served me aromatic tea - it was bliss. When I left the salon, I wanted to flutter. I went for a massage like this twice a week and when I had to fly home (I had been in Thailand for more than 2 months) I paid attention to my body - it became toned, smooth and there was not even a hint of cellulite left. If I find something similar here, I’ll definitely go there.

I am bursting with emotions, I want to show off everything - I can finally wear skirts above my knees, I no longer have cellulite. And since everyone here attaches photos, here are my pictures with ugly forms “before” and chic “after” of the anti-cellulite massage and wraps program.
Losing weight and getting rid of cellulite have always been a fixation for me, but somehow it didn’t work out (either there was no money, or time, and, frankly speaking, I was too lazy to do it myself). In general, I still found the required amount - I needed more than 40 thousand for the full course.
At the salon, the master suggested that I alternate between manual and roller-vacuum massage, and then consolidate the result with an anti-cellulite wrap. This is how they worked out all the problem areas for me. In 15 sessions, I lost almost 4 kg (not enough, of course, but that’s okay), and most importantly, I got rid of cellulite. Hurray, hurray, hurray.
True, the massage therapist said that it would be necessary to repeat the course at least 2-3 times a year, but for the sake of beauty, I am ready to part with any money.
T@nayT@nush@013
Oh, girls, why spend that kind of money, buy yourself massage jars and do it yourself - no worse. I specially took a photo before the start of the procedures and, of course, photographed what happened at the end (I show it without being embarrassed, although I would never have posted this on the Internet before).
So, I bought jars, took olive oil, added a couple of drops of aromatic ether and that’s it, you can begin the “execution”. At first I did it myself. I put the can down, let out the air, started to drive it - it hurt, I shouted to my husband to come. I say, come on, I can’t do it myself, if you want a beautiful wife, give her a massage. What do you think did. Moreover, he massaged me every other day, the poor thing had nowhere to go.
Of course it hurt, I scolded him, but everyone survived (by the way, there were no bruises, only redness). Now we can admire the result together. This is how you can defeat cellulite for little money. These jars are reusable, so massage whenever you want. Oh, I forgot to say, if you have varicose veins or vascular problems, this massage cannot be done, it will be even worse.

I also agree that to fight cellulite you don’t have to spend a lot of money, it’s better to spend it on a new wardrobe, so I do massage myself, and have been doing it for a long time. When I first started, I photographed myself all the time, after each procedure, this encouraged me not to quit what I started.
To be honest, I didn’t have any special skills, I warmed myself up as best I could, but even this gave results. To make my hands glide better, I used regular baby cream. Then I read that you can add essential oils and vitamins to it, and that’s what I did. Over the years I have gained experience, watched a lot of videos, even completed express courses, now I do it not only for myself, but also for my friends.
At the age of 35 (now I’m almost 40), I joined the gym, learned to eat right, and periodically give myself anti-cellulite massage. Without exaggeration, I sculpted my body myself and I’m proud of it!

It is clear that self-massage saves money, but as for me, I would never get rid of cellulite if I kneaded myself. I always have more important things to do and don’t have enough time for a massage, but I wanted to get rid of the orange peel. I couldn’t leave the house because I was a small child, so I found a masseuse who came to the house.
Whether you like it or not, whether you have time or not, the massage was done regularly. She brought with her a warming cream, which continued to work even after the massage (it seemed to break down fats). The masseuse kneaded me with her hands and rolled me over my body with a stick that looked like a rolling pin. The sensations were not pleasant, it hurt, there were even small bruises.
But by the middle of the course (I paid for 10 sessions), the bruises had disappeared and the pain had dulled - a completely tolerable procedure. After each massage, I asked the masseuse to take photographs of my problem areas. By the end of the entire course, I sorted the photos from 1st to 10th and couldn’t believe my eyes - the result is amazing, see for yourself.
I had the second stage of cellulite, now it’s difficult to see the tubercles with the naked eye, my legs and butt are almost perfect. I agreed with the masseuse that in a month we would repeat the course. By the way, calling a professional to your home turned out to be cheaper than going to a salon (I paid less than 10 thousand rubles for the course). Like this.
Video on topic
Anti-cellulite massage is a very popular procedure. This popularity is due to a number of reasons, the main one of which is a noticeable effect after just a few procedures.
What does the result depend on?
The effect of anti-cellulite massage is influenced by many factors - the stage of cellulite development, individual characteristics of the body, lifestyle and nutrition. Let's take a closer look at this.
Cellulite has several stages of development:
- Edema.
- Micronadular stage.
- Macronadular stage.
At the first stage, cellulite is practically invisible. The patient feels that her body is slightly swollen.
At the edema stage, the skin remains smooth, although the body has already started the process of fluid retention. The pressure inside the tissue increases. Because of this, fat deposits thicken.
The micronadular stage of cellulite occurs when fluid compresses the arteries. Externally, the connective tissue becomes similar to a honeycomb. The unevenness of the skin will only be visible when squeezed.
The macronadular stage occurs when cellulite is already visible to the naked eye. People call it “orange peel”. When tissue is compressed, a painful sensation appears.
Nutrition
To achieve the best result, you need to balance your diet and drinking regimen. Avoid fatty, fried and salty foods.
Replenish the menu with fish, seaweed, boiled chicken and dairy products. Eat more vegetables and fruits in season.
Water will also help in the fight against cellulite if you drink at least 2 liters a day.
Lifestyle
Gym classes, morning exercises or just walks before bed - choose an acceptable type of physical activity for yourself.
Remember, movement in this case is not only life, but also beauty.
When will the effect be visible after an anti-cellulite massage?
The result of anti-cellulite massage depends on many factors. But, on average, 6-8 sessions are enough for the effect to become noticeable.
Although you shouldn’t stop there. In salons, they often prescribe a standard course of 10 sessions. Experts recommend carrying out anti-cellulite massage every other day, that is, one course will take 2-3 weeks.
The effect of different types of procedures
Many people who want to get rid of the “orange peel” face the question: What type of massage to choose - manual, cupping, machine?
Manual massage
Manual or manual massage can be performed either independently or with a massage therapist. The average duration of the procedure is 45-60 minutes. During this time, problem areas of the abdomen, buttocks and thighs are massaged.
At home, if you decide to massage yourself, you can use dry rubbing equipment - a mitten, a brush with natural bristles or a terry towel.
Manual massage is recommended for patients with the initial stages of cellulite.
The effect becomes noticeable after 5-7 procedures. According to many patients, it manifests itself faster than after cupping or hardware.
Advantages of manual massage:
- The massage therapist controls the depth of impact on the tissue, therefore does not leave bruises or hematomas;
- Manual massage can be performed for varicose veins;
- The massage tactics are simple, so you can carry out the procedures yourself.
The main disadvantages of manual anti-cellulite massage are the high cost (if you contact specialists) and dependence on the human factor. It is worth taking the choice of a massage therapist especially seriously.
How to do anti-cellulite massage with vacuum cans at home - all the details.
He must have the appropriate qualifications. Be careful, if a massage therapist has many clients in one day, then most likely he is doing a poor job.
Doing a massage for several hours in a row is very difficult, so even professionals in their field tend to get tired.
The average cost of a manual massage in a salon varies from 1800 to 4000 rubles/hour.
As mentioned above, the effect of a manual procedure is noticeable only after 5-7 sessions, so a course of manual procedures can hardly be called cheap.
Cupping massage
Photo: Cupping massage
Vacuum or cupping massage – treatment and prevention of cellulite using special cups. You can do it yourself, at home or in a salon. It’s quite easy to learn, just watch a video on the Internet.
The duration of the procedure is 25-30 minutes. The recommended course duration is 15-20 sessions. The price of a can is 10-80 rubles. In Moscow salons, vacuum procedures cost an average of 1,500-3,000 rubles.
The effect of these procedures will become noticeable after completing at least half of the course.
Benefits of cupping massage:
- It can be done at home;
- The drainage effect breaks down the “matrix” of tissue to which cellulite is “attached”, this allows it to penetrate deeper into fat deposits;
- Cupping anti-cellulite massage does not require much effort, unlike manual massage.
However, this procedure also has its drawbacks. Cupping massage can leave bruises on the skin. Sometimes it happens that the pain persists for a long time, and discomfort occurs even when the problem areas come into contact with clothing.
Hardware massage

Hardware massage is done only in salons. In terms of technique, it is very similar to canning. Mechanical massagers are equipped with additional suction cups and rollers.
Hardware massage has a number of advantages over manual massage:
- It is less painful;
- A mechanical apparatus does not get tired, unlike a person;
- Provides deep penetration, this massage eliminates the hardest collagen deposits;
- The intensity can be adjusted depending on the level of sensitivity of the patient's skin.
The price of hardware massage is lower than that of manual and cup massage. The cost of procedures starts from 1000 rubles per session.
The effect of hardware massage becomes noticeable after 5-7 procedures.
Unlike manual procedures, mechanical procedures are more likely to injure blood vessels. Therefore, before signing up for a massage, you need to study the contraindications.
Myths about anti-cellulite massage
Everyone wants to achieve quick results from a massage. Some believe that after such procedures you can lose excess weight.
This is the first myth. It is impossible to lose weight after a course of anti-cellulite massage.
Experts recommend first getting rid of extra pounds, and only then starting to even out your skin. If everything is done in combination, then the effect is possible. But provided that you eat right, lead a healthy lifestyle and work out in the gym.
The second myth is that anti-cellulite massage must be painful and leave bruises. It is not true. During the manual massage procedure, unpleasant or painful sensations may occur, but bruises should not remain.
It all depends on the professionalism of the massage therapist. Bruises are possible after undergoing cupping or hardware procedures.
Myth three - there is an opinion that anti-cellulite massage cannot be combined with physical activity. This is also incorrect. With an integrated approach to treatment, the effect occurs much faster.
Experienced massage therapists recommend combining anti-cellulite treatments with training in the gym. This will help restore elasticity to the skin and become firm and attractive.

I am 30 years old.
Pronounced cellulite appeared several years ago. I periodically take anti-cellulite massage courses. I started with manual and decided to try hardware.
The effect of the procedure on the face. Advice - go to the gym. Then you can keep your figure in good shape, I recommend it to everyone.
I do manual anti-cellulite massage only in combination with gym classes.
I balanced my diet and lost extra pounds. The effect of the procedures became noticeable after 4 sessions. I continue to eat right and go to workouts. I will definitely undergo similar procedures.
I do hardware anti-cellulite massage in the salon. Costs less than manual.
The massage lasts 25 minutes. It was a pleasant procedure, I can’t say about the effect, I only had one session. I hope for a good result. I read reviews, many praise hardware massage.
I do manual massage myself after a shower. A friend advised me to buy jars at the pharmacy.
According to her, there is an effect from the procedure. She has been doing anti-cellulite cupping massage for several years now. Need to try.
