Skin Details

The cellulite condition often occurs on a woman's hips, stomach or thighs. This is because these areas are the most susceptible to fat. When the fat deposits that are close to the skin begins to expand the skin begin to get a dimpled appearance. It is this orange peel look which is commonly referred to as cellulite.

There are hundreds of treatments available that claim to reduce cellulite. One such treatment is massage. This treatment is thought to help to reduce cellulite by smoothing out the fat and increasing blood circulation to the problem areas.

Massage machines are available in both a spa or home environment. But not anyone can afford to purchase equipment or a pay a trained beauty therapist to carry out the treatment. This is why self-massage can be a cost-effective cellulite treatment for those on a tight budget or in combination with other treatments like wraps, radio therapy, laser therapy or creams and lotions.

When starting out with self-massage you will first need to choose an oil that will help you lubricate the skin. Some oils that are available claim to be able to aid the cellulite reduction process. Your local dealer of oils will be able to explain to you what these oils are in more detail.

If you have cellulite on your hips or abdomen / stomach you should use two hands. You want a kneading-type motion where you lift up the skin and cellulite with one hand and then drop it into the other. Make sure you are gentle.

One you have finished the kneading process it is time now to start doing circular-type motions across the problem areas. Try to do clockwise motions because this is the way your digestive system naturally moves. If you are pregnant or planning on being it is recommended that you don't massage your abdomen as there is risk you may hurt the baby.

If you have cellulite on your thighs as most women do, start at the knee and use a long stroking motion upwards. Also use the same stroke with the area behind the knees and back thighs.

Once you have finished the long stroke switch to kneading the cellulite and skin using two hands as described above.

To increase the cellulite removal process you can combine the self-massage with other cellulite treatments. If you are on a tight budget some simple steps can make a large difference. This includes increasing the amount of water you use each day, losing weight by eating correctly and exercising, or using a loofah sponge in the shower to rub the problem areas.

For a more intensive cellulite massage treatment you should investigate a home massage machine or ask your local health and beauty spa whether they have a specialized machine available to their customers.
