Where does it come from?
As a rule, the thighs, buttocks, abdomen, and upper arms are the most favorite places for cellulite. As a result of disruption of the normal circulation of fluid, fatty deposits accumulate in these places, which subsequently interfere with the normal circulation of fluid in the tissues. It turns out to be such a vicious circle, which is very difficult to break.
Cellulite is not only a cosmetic defect, it also interferes with the full blood supply of cells. And this, in turn, prevents cells from being fully enriched with oxygen and other nutrients.
Kneading and rubbing problem areas of the body not only pleasantly warms up the muscles, but also enhances blood circulation, enriching the subcutaneous fatty tissue with oxygen and removing toxins from it.
Under the influence of massage, excess fat is gradually absorbed and excreted, cells revive, metabolism improves, and the skin becomes more taut and elastic.
