Vacuum massage for cellulite using cups at home

Cellulite is considered a cosmetic problem caused by age (the older, the more pronounced it is) and excess weight (the more, the more noticeable). Those who have already encountered him know about his cunning. With regular use of wraps and creams, the orange peel seems to go away, but as soon as the course ends, after some time it appears again. That is why drastic measures are needed here that will not allow fat capsules to go deeper, but will break them and remove them from the body. In particular, these include cupping or vacuum massage.

Essence of the procedure

p, blockquote 3,0,0,0,0 —>

Don't let the name fool you. It does not force anyone to use household glass jars for the procedure - special massage jars are used here. They can be rubber and silicone, glass and magnetic, with suction cups and pumps.

p, blockquote 4,0,0,0,0 —>

They attach to the problem area of ​​the body (where cellulite reigns) due to the vacuum created inside them. The air is either pre-removed from them (for example, just squeezing a silicone jar with your hands) or pumped out after installation with special pumps.

Then they either remain motionless, or they begin to move around the body. The second method is more aggressive, since hematomas and pain syndromes are guaranteed as side effects. However, it is also more effective, because at the end of the course of such massage there is no trace left of the fat capsules.

To carry out the procedure at home, you can purchase all the necessary equipment, but it is difficult to learn. In the absence of certain knowledge, both the skin and internal organs can be seriously injured. Therefore, experts strongly recommend signing up for a cupping massage for cellulite in a salon with a professional.

Operating principle

How does cupping massage help against cellulite? Through the same vacuum. The operating principle is as follows:

p, blockquote 9,0,0,0,0 —>

1. the skin seems to be drawn inside the jar;
2. it irritates its receptors;
3. the body turns on self-regeneration mechanisms - blood rushes to a given area of ​​the body, lymph flow accelerates, nerve endings become sharper;
4. result - tissues receive the maximum amount of nutrients, lymph takes away harmful toxins and waste;
5. but most importantly, on this “island” in the tissues the amount of oxygen increases, which is known as an excellent fat burner;
6. under the influence of oxygen and vacuum, the fat capsules burst and their contents are excreted - by lymph and through the sweat glands.

Despite the fact that the effectiveness of cupping massage in the fight against cellulite has been scientifically proven and confirmed by many examples in practice, not everyone dares to undergo the procedure. There are a lot of pitfalls: don’t expect pleasant sensations, in most cases there are many bruises left on the body, and without diet and exercise, no one will give you a 100% guarantee that the problem will not return again.

Contraindications

The vacuum pressure that cans create has a powerful effect on many subcutaneous layers. This affects various biochemical processes in tissues. And if something is initially wrong with the body, there is a risk of harming it even more. Therefore, this procedure has its own contraindications that do not allow the use of this method in the fight against cellulite:

How to choose banks

If you plan to do everything yourself, you will have to first choose banks, so it would be a good idea to get acquainted with their main types and features.

p, blockquote 21,0,0,0,0 —>

p, blockquote 22,1,0,0,0 —>

1. conventional cans (silicone and rubber): a vacuum is created by manually squeezing the body;
2. glass with a rubber nozzle: a vacuum is formed after squeezing the nozzle;
3. with a pump that pumps out air.

At home, it is better to use regular and glass jars. Those with a pump require certain skills and are most often used in salons. A short overview of their main advantages and disadvantages will help you make the right choice.

p, blockquote 23,0,0,0,0 —>

1. Glass

p, blockquote 24,0,0,0,0 —>

Even in the fixed state, glass massage jars can be adjusted, which allows them to be used in almost all places - even sensitive and hard-to-reach ones. Glass does not absorb massage cream, so they are easy to care for. But at the same time they can break, and the coldness of the glass causes not entirely pleasant sensations when it comes into contact with the body.

p, blockquote 25,0,0,0,0 —>

1. Rubber

The sets contain jars of different sizes. Low cost, safety and ease of use are their main advantages. But they absorb cream and sweat from the body, are difficult to wash, and contribute to the proliferation of pathogenic microorganisms in such an environment. So from a hygiene point of view, this is not the best option.

p, blockquote 26,0,0,0,0 —>

1. Silicone

p, blockquote 27,0,0,0,0 —>

At home, cellulite massage is best done with silicone cups, as they have virtually no disadvantages. They are inexpensive, safe to use, extremely hygienic, easy to clean, and cause minimal discomfort compared to others. They are ideal for treating the thighs and buttocks.

p, blockquote 28,0,0,0,0 —>

1. Latex

The characteristics are very similar to silicone. Their advantage is longer operation. However, you will have to pay more money for them. One massage jar in the set has a round hole. She works with cellulite over large areas of the body. The second one is oval, its task is to facilitate access to hard-to-reach problem areas.

p, blockquote 29,0,0,0,0 —>

1. With pump

p, blockquote 30,0,0,0,0 —>

The air is removed from them by a special pump. Material: medical plastic. The good thing is that you can control and regulate the intensity of the impact. They do not “come off” until the end of the procedure. But at the same time, they are dangerous, since they stick too tightly to the body and often injure the area.

p, blockquote 31,0,0,0,0 —>

1. With magnetic attachments

Some kits include special magnets (built-in and removable) that need to be placed inside the cans. They create a special magnetic field that penetrates the body to a considerable depth and acts like a needle. This is a unique massage that combines acupuncture, magnetic therapy and vacuum therapy.

p, blockquote 32,0,0,0,0 —>

1. Suction cups with valve

Cans with a valve to regulate rarefied air are new. They work through the deeper layers, breaking down fat capsules without leaving a trace. They are often supplemented with magnetic attachments.

Features of the procedure

In order to do cupping massage at home, you need to study a lot of information. Moreover, it is best to trust the professionals for the first time, spare no expense and sign up for a salon. First, you will see your body's reaction to this procedure and evaluate the results. Secondly, you will feel and remember how the master does it, so that you can repeat it yourself.

p, blockquote 35,0,0,0,0 —>

If this is not possible, watch training videos and master classes on how to properly do cupping massage for cellulite. There, the technique is usually described in great detail, and most importantly, everything is clearly demonstrated. Approximately you need to act according to the following instructions.

p, blockquote 36,0,0,0,0 —>

1. Take a hot shower or bath to warm up your skin.
2. Treat the area of ​​the body with cellulite with Vaseline, gel, oil or fat burning cream.
3. Squeeze the jar forcefully and place it in the desired location.
4. Then you can go in two ways. Method 1 - static. Place these jars at a distance of 10-15 cm from each other over the entire surface of the problem area and leave in this form for 10-30 minutes. Method 2 - kinetic. Make circular and zigzag movements with the vacuum jar for 5-10 minutes.
5. Remove the can by pressing on it.
6. Treat the skin with any cream. Better - calming.
7. After the massage you need to lie down in a relaxed state. You can go outside only after half an hour or an hour.
8. Course - from 10 to 20 sessions. It will be possible to repeat it no earlier than in 3-4 months.
9. During the entire course, you do not need to abuse saunas and solariums.

But knowing this is not enough. Before carrying out the procedure, you must study the massage scheme. It shows in which directions the cans can be moved on a particular part of the body. Essentially, this is a map of the lymphatic system, and all massage lines coincide with the lymph flow. If the movements are chaotic, you can seriously harm your health.

To improve results, try to use the entire arsenal of remedies against it: select a special set of exercises, go on an effective diet, get enough sleep and follow a daily routine. All this will ultimately delight you with a quick and amazing effect.

Complications

When deciding on a cupping massage, you must take into account that throughout the course the body will be covered with bruises. For some they are more pronounced, for others they are almost invisible and cease to form after just a couple of sessions. But if this is a natural side effect that is easy to cope with, then other complications may arise that will require serious medical intervention.

p, blockquote 42,0,0,0,0 —>

1. You can get rid of hematomas with the help of bodyagi, heparin ointment, lyoton gel, troxevasin, the drug “Bruise-off”, indovazin, arnigel, etc.
2. If you start doing massage for cellulite on your legs, while having experience with varicose veins, then venous bleeding may open. They will require long-term hospital treatment.
3. One of the most serious complications is the detachment of a blood clot under the influence of a vacuum, which creates strong pressure on the circulatory system. If this results in a blockage of a vital vessel (such as the pulmonary artery), it can be fatal.
4. If a cancer tumor develops in the body, under the influence of a vacuum the growth of metastases can accelerate several times.

As practice shows, those who have already understood that it is very difficult to fight cellulite with conventional cosmetics turn to cupping massage for help. While you are using the cream, the fat capsules go deep, removing the orange peel from the surface of the skin. As soon as it ends, they return again. And this happens during most anti-cellulite procedures. But the vacuum technique leaves no chance for fatty deposits, acting on them directly. At the same time, you need to understand how aggressive this method is and what side effects you will have to face.

Cellulite is one of the main obstacles for women on the road to beauty and an ideal body. “Orange peel” is a problem not only for overweight women, but also for representatives of the fair sex who are of normal weight. After all, there are many reasons for cellulite: from smoking and stress to a sedentary lifestyle and hormonal disorders. But it is not enough to get rid of the cause of this female trouble; it is necessary to free yourself from its consequences. An effective remedy in the fight against the hated “orange peel” is anti-cellulite massage with cups at home. This procedure is a type of vacuum exposure.

The effectiveness of cupping massage against cellulite

Anti-cellulite cupping massage affects the nervous system as a whole after physical stimulation of skin receptors, vessel walls, muscles, ligaments, tendons. Thanks to this, certain signals are communicated to the corresponding part of the cerebral cortex. For this reason, body temperature and blood flow to the massaged area increase. Blood carries oxygen and nutrients to cells.

Cupping massage for cellulite improves the circulation of lymph and intercellular fluid, helps remove excess water from the body.

Anti-cellulite cupping massage has a positive effect on the circulation of lymph and intercellular fluid, and on cell restoration processes. Excess fluid is also removed, the skin becomes smoother and more elastic, and lipid masses (the generator of subcutaneous fat accumulation) are mechanically moved. The effect of this type of massage is similar to the effect of a bath or sauna, since the work of the sebaceous and sweat glands is stimulated. The skin begins to “breathe”, metabolism accelerates, which eliminates stagnant processes in the body. If you perform a cupping massage for cellulite for a long time, the adhesions that interfere with good lymph flow will go away, which means the subcutaneous fat layer will become smoother.

It is worth noting that massage with cups against cellulite is even more effective than applying it to the skin with your hands. With a vacuum massage, a slight tension of the skin occurs, which is useful even for the fibrous form of cellulite, when it is hard, painful and has a purple tint. With the “orange peel” of the first or second stage, the result will be visible after several procedures. A more advanced stage of cellulite (third or fourth) will be affected after 2 weeks of massage and will gradually decrease.

Massage with cups against cellulite effectively relieves problems in the buttocks, abdomen, back, front and outer thighs, in the riding breeches area (the so-called “ears”). This massage is also effective for rejuvenating aging skin and accelerating regeneration processes (gets rid of scars and stretch marks).

Technique for doing it at home

Before we talk about how to do anti-cellulite cupping massage, we should mention the necessary preparation of the skin before carrying out the procedure at home.

1. Steam. Take a warm bath or contrast shower. In the first case, it is useful to add sea salt or a few drops of some essential oil to the water. Using a hard washcloth, rub the problem areas of the skin until slightly red. Instead of a washcloth, you can use a peeling or scrub to cleanse the body of dead skin particles and open the pores.

2. Lubricate. Apply anti-cellulite cream or oil so that the jar glides freely over the skin.

3. Massage. If the jars are silicone or rubber, first squeeze them in your palm. A glass jar with a rubber nozzle must be pressed tightly and the nozzle must be squeezed for the vacuum effect to work. Place the jar on the problem area and, without breaking the seal, slowly, but without stopping, move it along straight, wavy, spiral and zigzag lines. Each type of movement should be repeated at least 5–6 times. In this case, the skin should be retracted by 1 - 2 cm, otherwise injury to the blood vessels may occur and bruises will appear. If the skin has retracted too much, press your finger on the skin near the neck of the jar and thereby let in some air.

If during the procedure the jar often comes off, squeeze it harder when installing it or better lubricate the skin area.

Cupping massage for cellulite in one area should be performed for 15 to 20 minutes and completed when severe redness occurs. After this, it is advisable to lightly stroke the treated areas and lie down for half an hour.

4. Moisturize. At the end of the procedure, apply moisturizer to the treated areas.

It is advisable to carry out the procedures every other day so that the skin can recover. After the session, it is good to prepare herbal or green tea to remove excess water from the body and enhance the effect of the vacuum massage. The first sessions may be a little painful, so initially the treatment time should be reduced.

Depending on the degree of cellulite, it is advisable to carry out cupping massage in courses of 2–4 weeks. The interval between courses should be 1.5 – 2 months.

Contraindications

Due to the specific nature of the enhanced effect of vacuum cans on the circulatory system and epidermis, there is a list of contraindications to the procedure:

1. violations of the integrity of the skin (wounds, fresh scars, insect bites, rashes);
2. skin diseases (dermatitis, eczema, etc.);
3. serious diseases of the cardiovascular system;
4. hypertension;
5. varicose veins;
6. thrombophlebitis;
7. sensitivity of blood vessels;
8. epilepsy;
9. women's diseases;
10. pregnancy;
11. urolithiasis disease;
12. worsened chronic illnesses;
13. period of menstruation.

The use of cupping massage for the listed problems can cause complications.

I would especially like to note that cupping massage is prohibited in areas where lymph nodes are located (on the inner surface of the thigh, in the groin area and popliteal cavity). Otherwise, there is a high probability of disruption of lymph flow and the appearance of spider veins in the indicated places.

Types of cans for vacuum massage

Glass, rubber and silicone jars are used for anti-cellulite massage.

Polymer glass jars

Initially, glass jars were used by our grandmothers to get rid of bronchitis. The vacuum was formed due to the fire, but there was a possibility of getting burned. A modified version of this jar is equipped with a rubber nozzle and does not involve the use of fire. To create rarefied air, the nozzle is squeezed. The diameter of glass jars is from 1.1 to 5 cm. The advantages of such jars are the ability to adjust the degree of skin retraction to allow their use in sensitive areas and reduce pain. In addition, glass does not have the ability to absorb cream and oil and is easy to clean. As for the disadvantages, this is a fragile material; if handled carelessly, such cellulite jars can break.

Cans made of anti-allergenic rubber

Rubber anti-cellulite jars are made from high-quality rubber. They are available in different diameters: 2.2, 3.5, 5 and 6.5 cm, which means they can be used for different areas of the body. The advantages of rubber jars include low cost, ease and safety of use. As for the downsides, rubber has the ability to absorb cream and oil, which over time threatens the proliferation of microorganisms.

Silicone jars

Silicone cups are most in demand for massage because they do not have the disadvantages of the two varieties mentioned above. In salons, experienced professionals use silicone jars. They are easy to clean, safe, hygienic and inexpensive.

Anti-cellulite massage with cups at home is an excellent alternative to a salon procedure. You will save money and time, and the result will be no worse. An integrated approach will allow you to get rid of the “orange peel” for a long time.

Vacuum massage is an effective way to get rid of orange peel skin that does not require much physical effort. The massage is performed using special cups or a device. A vacuum is created inside the container, with the help of which the skin and subcutaneous fatty tissue are drawn into the jar, which causes blood flow to the tissues. Massage using special professional devices is carried out in cosmetic clinics. Orange peel massage activates skin receptors that provoke mechanical damage to the accumulation of adipose tissue. Increased hemodynamics leads to the fact that the skin becomes firm, elastic and smooth. Massage has been successfully used to restore muscle fibers after prolonged intense sports activities.

Does vacuum massage help against cellulite?

The effectiveness of the vacuum massage procedure for cellulite is due to:

1. normalization of lipid metabolism in the subcutaneous fat layer;
2. stimulation of collagen production;
3. normalization of hemodynamics;
4. strengthening the walls of blood vessels.

Massage allows you to get rid of skin stretch marks after childbirth, heal sports injuries to muscles and tendons, relieve spasms and pain, and achieve deep relaxation.

Vacuum massage for cellulite is effective, but in a complex manner. Using one massage will not help in destroying all the excess fat tubercles and creating a beautiful figure, but it enhances the effectiveness of a well-prescribed weight loss program. Before the session, it is necessary to perform physical exercises to reduce body weight, this will increase the effectiveness of vacuum massage several times. It would be a good idea to reconsider your diet. Dietary restrictions on high-calorie foods or a properly designed diet will speed up the reduction in body volume and make this process quick and easy.

2. scar formations;
3. muscle tightness;
4. osteocondritis of the spine;
5. myositis and neuromyositis;

Preparation

Before you begin a vacuum massage from the “orange peel”, you should perform preparatory measures. 30 minutes before the session, drink a glass of water to saturate the body with moisture. Cleanse and warm up the skin. Scrubbing agents are used for cleaning. To warm up the skin, use manual massage. Apply massage oil or anti-cellulite cream to the body and target problem areas. It is recommended to use the following massage techniques:

1. stroking;
2. kneading;
3. trituration;
4. vibration;
5. effleurage

The procedure for warming up the skin before vacuum massage is carried out in order to reduce pain when exposed to cupping. The preparatory technique improves blood supply to muscle tissue and activates metabolic processes.

Vacuum massage oil for cellulite

Immediately before the vacuum massage from the “orange peel”, the upper layers of the skin are moisturized with a special oil or cream. Do not carry out the procedure on dry skin, this provokes the appearance of bruises and increased discomfort. To make the cans glide better, anti-cellulite cream is mixed with massage oil so that the resulting mixture remains on the skin for a long time. For this purpose, oils purchased in the store, as well as those made at home, are used. The basis of the home remedy is olive oil or oil infused with seeds - grape, peach, apricot. Essential oils enhance the anti-cellulite effect. The standard ratio is 10 ml of base and 3-4 drops of essential oil. All types of citrus essential oils, as well as cinnamon, lavender, and fir, are effective against cellulite.

Geranium oil accelerates lymph flow and removes excess moisture from the body, giving the skin firmness and elasticity.

Juniper oil improves metabolic processes, evacuates toxins and reduces swelling.

Cedar enriches cellular structures with oxygen and activates local hemodynamics.

It is advisable to replace anti-cellulite creams from time to time, because the skin stops responding to its components and their effect is reduced. This depends on the frequency of use of massage products.

Vacuum massage technique for cellulite

It is impossible to perform self-massage with a special device at home, because precision in moving the device’s attachments is required and this procedure cannot be performed on your own. Vacuum massage for cellulite at home is carried out using silicone or glass jars. The number of errors is significantly reduced, however, labor intensity increases. Before the massage, the jars are wiped with warm water. In order to get the expected effect, you need to know the massage technique and properly prepare the body for this procedure. The skin is steamed by taking a warm bath for 5-10 minutes, to which a couple of tablespoons of sea or rock salt are added. Then thoroughly rub the skin with a hard washcloth with gel and a few drops of essential oils with an anti-cellulite effect. The skin should be rubbed until red and slightly tingling. Taking such a bath activates metabolic processes, blood flow and lymph outflow. If you don’t have a hard washcloth at hand, then use a scrubbing agent made from improvised materials. To prepare the product at home, take ground coffee, sea salt, honey, and essential oils. After the bath, the skin is prepared for a vacuum massage from the “orange peel”. During the procedure:

1. skin pores open and anti-cellulite components easily penetrate into the right places;
2. Hemodynamics are activated and substances are delivered through the bloodstream to places where age-related fat deposits accumulate.

The jar is placed on the problem area in the direction of lymph flow. Lightly pressing the bowl creates additional pressure. After 5-7 clicks, the container must be dragged to another place. The jar makes circular and wave-like movements over the treated area. To remove the can, press on it with your fingers. The duration of the procedure is 15-20 minutes. It is recommended to conduct it in courses of 10 to 25 sessions every other day. During the year, 2 or 3 courses are allowed, depending on the degree of spread of cellulite formations.

Hardware vacuum massage for cellulite

A lymphatic drainage massage session using a special device has a positive effect on the epidermis and the entire body as a whole. Thanks to the procedure, the following occurs:

1. increased blood flow and, as a result, improved cell saturation with oxygen, minerals, vitamins, and nutrients;
2. activation of lymph flow, facilitating the evacuation of excess moisture and toxins from the body;
3. relaxation of muscle fibers;
4. normalization of secretory cell function;
5. collagen stimulation.

Hardware vacuum massage occurs when air is pumped and removed from the treated areas of the body through the nozzle of the device. The procedure is divided into 3 phases:

1. Preparatory. On clean, dry skin, the specialist applies a massage product that provides comfort when moving the massage attachment over the body.
2. The procedure itself. The massage bowl is placed on the treated area. The nozzle is connected through a tube to a device that pumps or sucks air. The massage therapist moves the bowl along the lymph flow lines.
3. Final. After the session, the specialist removes excess cosmetics from the skin and soothes them with light strokes.

The minimum duration of one procedure is a quarter of an hour and depends on the size of the treated area and the amount of lipid deposits.

Vacuum roller massage for cellulite

This is a modern technique for working out muscle layers and subcutaneous fat, combining vacuum cans and a roller attachment. The procedure is performed in cosmetic clinics. It is difficult to carry out at home due to the bulkiness of the equipment. The massage is carried out with special hands - plastic jars in which an airless space is created. There is a roller inside the container. On any part of the body, under the action of the manipulator, a vacuum is formed and the upper layers of the skin are stretched. When the pressure reaches the required values, the skin is affected by a roller moving inside the jar. The diameter of the bowl is selected for each area individually. For the face, smaller manipulas are needed, and for the abdomen and hips, larger ones. During the procedure, the massage therapist moves it around the treated area. For smooth glide over the body, massage oil is first applied to the epidermis.

Vacuum roller massage sessions for excess fat accumulation also contribute to:

1. strengthening muscle tissue;
2. training the musculoskeletal system with a sedentary lifestyle;
3. reducing swelling during the rehabilitation period after surgery.

Vacuum massage improves the functioning of the lymphatic system, providing intensive outflow of excess moisture from cellular structures. Hardware lymphatic drainage massage for cellulite helps tighten sagging skin with significant weight loss. After 15 massage sessions, the skin becomes firm and elastic.

Vacuum leg massage for cellulite

When performing a vacuum massage of the lower extremities, it is necessary to carefully ensure that the movements are performed along the lines of the venous outflow. It is necessary to start the massage from the periphery to the central part. When massaging the back of the thigh, the movements should be directed upward towards the shoulder girdle. If excess fat deposits appear on the shins, then the massage covers the shin and rises up the back of it.

It is difficult to move the bowl in one direction, and therefore it is moved along certain shapes - ellipses, circles, zigzags, returning the bowl to its original position. The massage is completed at the point of venous outflow. During the massage, the patient experiences a rush of heat, a slight burning sensation, sometimes pain, swelling and hyperemia of the epidermis. Massage movements should not hurt. A massage session takes 10-20 minutes, and after getting used to it, the duration is increased to 25 minutes. When setting the duration of the massage, they proceed from the sensations. If pain and burning sensations are severe, then the procedure is performed as soon as possible. At the end of the massage, you should rest a little for about 20 minutes. The massage is carried out at intervals of 1-2 days. If the fat deposits are not very pronounced, then 4-5 procedures are enough to get the effect, and if the “orange peel” is pronounced, then more than 10 sessions are needed.

Vacuum massage for cellulite at home

At home, lymphatic drainage massage for fatty tubercles is carried out using glass or silicone jars. To carry out the procedure, you will also need an anti-cellulite or massage product. Along with store-bought creams, homemade oil is popular. It is necessary to prepare a mixture of 50 ml of any oil - peach, vaseline, olive with aroma oil that has an anti-cellulite effect (geranium, citrus fruits, juniper, bergamot).

To perform the procedure, you should squeeze the cup in your hand and release the air, apply it to the massaged area, and make upward movements (from bottom to top). Massage movements in the thigh area are performed towards the inguinal lymph nodes; in the abdominal area, movements are carried out in a circle in a clockwise direction.

For greater effect, combine vacuum massage from fat tubercles with manual massage. The session time will be reduced if you use two bowls synchronously, when both limbs are massaged. It is not advisable to leave the jar in one place for a long time, otherwise the likelihood of bruising will increase. When treating legs, you should not massage the groin area, inner thigh, popliteal fossa, or inguinal canal area.

At first, the duration of the procedure is no more than 10 minutes. After mastering the techniques of vacuum massage for cellulite, increase the procedure time. The number of sessions depends on the degree of fat accumulation. The standard course consists of 10-20 sessions of 20 minutes per day for each treated area.

At the end of the procedure, treat the skin with frozen water. To make an ice cube, freeze herbal tea or orange juice. Use circular motions to walk over problem areas with ice cubes. If you have free time after the procedure, you can wrap the massaged areas with plastic wrap and do exercises.

For vacuum massage against cellulite at home, medical glass jars are suitable. In addition to cans you need:

Wrap a piece of cotton wool around the forceps, dip it in medical alcohol and use a lighter to set it on fire. Place the tweezers in a glass jar for 2-3 seconds and instantly attach them to the body. If pain occurs, remove the container and apply it again.

Drive slowly through the areas being worked on, not forgetting the rules of self-massage - from bottom to top. Make movements with the massage bowl in the form of circles, zigzags and spirals. Complete the procedure with a manual massage, making pats and stroking.

The effect of vacuum massage against cellulite is enhanced when combined with a shower. Before the procedure, warm the abdomen, thighs, and buttocks with hot, but not scalding, water. Rub the skin with a hard massage mitt. Apply the cleansing gel to problem areas and, pressing the silicone cup slightly, apply it to the skin. Rub the problem areas. Take an invigorating shower.
