How to do weight loss wrap

Slimming wraps affect all problem areas, which are often exposed to the appearance of cellulite. Buttocks, hips and stomach quickly lose their elasticity. This aspect is caused by slowed blood circulation, accumulation of salts and fluid in the skin, and insufficient physical activity. Especially useful wraps are considered for those who work in the office, and also spends a lot of time sitting. To lose weight and tighten the silhouette, it is important to follow the rules of the procedure.

Useful Properties of Slimming Wraps

The procedure in which the body is wrapped in bandages, a sheet or a cling film is called thalassotherapy.

1. The technique is designed to remove salts, poisons and toxins from the body. With the help of wraps, metabolic processes in the tissues of the treated area are improved and within 7-10 cm around it. In addition, home formulations allow you to remove up to 4 cm from the waist in 1 session, get rid of puffiness and fluid, eliminate cellulite.
2. Slimming wraps are done through heat exposure (hot) or a cold cycle. In the first case, the composition for application to the skin is heated to 38-40 degrees. The second option has room temperature or below its limits by 5 degrees.
3. Often the basis of the wrapping composition is salt, honey, mustard, hot pepper (chili), seaweed, table or apple vinegar, lemon balm and mint, essential oils, clay, cinnamon, etc. Such a wide list allows you to affect the lower layers of the skin, removing liquid and burning fat.
4. It is believed that the cold cycle wraps are aimed at combating cellulite and other skin irregularities. While hot thalassotherapy eliminates extra centimeters from the waist, sides, hips.
5. The main purpose of weight loss wraps is to increase skin elasticity, remove the effect of orange peel, break down salts and remove excess fluid. As a result of such procedures, all biochemical processes in the body are accelerated, blood flow increases and fat breakdown occurs.
6. People with varicose veins are advised to increase the temperature of the composition gradually, therefore it is more advisable to do wraps in the cold cycle. Due to this, the vessels and capillaries will be ready for a sharp change in the "climate".
7. Useful properties and the final result depend on the composition for the wraps. For example, algae act quite deeply. After 8-10 sessions, the body looks slimmer, it leaves up to 8 cm from problem areas. However, it is important to understand that weight loss is more due to the withdrawal of fluid, and not the breakdown of adipose tissue.
8. In addition to losing weight, wrapping the body with bandages or a film has a healing effect on all fronts. The immune system is strengthened, skin color improves, mood rises. Tissues receive all the beneficial enzymes that are needed for hydration and nutrition.

The mass for distribution over the body is preheated, then a film is wrapped over it.Due to the thermal effect, the skin is cleansed through the pores, blood flow is accelerated and the breakdown of fats begins.
