What it will turn out to be: how to properly conduct a beauty procedure for weight loss

Those desperate to get rid of cellulite and subcutaneous fat resort to a variety of methods. Classic diet and sports are not enough, and the heavy artillery – wraps – comes into play. Let’s see if it really helps.

How do wraps work?

Wraps are considered to be an effective way to combat the shortcomings of the figure. Their advantage is that the procedure can be done not only in a salon, but also at home, and this allows you to save the budget.

After each session, the effect becomes more noticeable: the skin is smoothed, the volumes gradually disappear. However, the process cannot be called weight loss in the full sense of the word – during the wraps sweat is produced, resulting in the release of fluid. Thus, the body leaves only water, but not fat.

Oksana Novozilova, fitness trainer and blogger, encourages not to forget about proper nutrition and exercise, only in this case, wraps can be useful. The expert notes that wraps are not a panacea at all, and to achieve the desired effect, it is necessary to combine procedures with training and in general a healthy lifestyle.

Moreover, to lose weight only in a particular area – for example, in the hips – is impossible: if you do a localized wrap, it does not really contribute to fat burning. In this case, the procedure mostly helps to improve the quality of the skin.

There are several types of wraps, each of which is good in its own way. It all depends on your taste. However, be careful – in some diseases such procedures are contraindicated.

Consult your doctor before the procedure.

Hot wrap

This method helps to reduce body volume, dilates blood vessels and improves blood circulation. Hot wrap is suitable for those who enjoy visiting saunas and hammams, but it is contraindicated for people suffering from varicose veins.

Cold wrap

If it is easier for you to tolerate cold than heat, then an alternative procedure is suitable for you. However, the effect of it will be slightly different.

The fact is that the cold promotes skin toning and vasoconstriction. Such a wrap will be especially relevant for those who have problems with the legs, such as swelling and excessive fatigue.

Wrap at home

Carry out wraps should be extremely careful. A mistake can lead to irreversible consequences for the skin. Therefore, before performing the procedure, it is necessary to carefully read the composition of the mixture and its instructions.

Before starting the procedure, you need to scrub the skin well, then apply a special composition to the problem areas and tightly wrap with food film. In this case, you can not pull the body – it will prevent free blood circulation. For greater effect, you can wrap yourself in a blanket or put on warm clothes.

With mixtures for wraps should be extremely careful – low-quality means can cause allergies or even burns. Therefore, as a rule, salon wraps are considered safer. Try to avoid untested compositions and do not abuse home procedures if you have any diseases.
