PROFESSIONAL MASSAGER m240NExpectant mothers, people who su󰀨er from diabetes and people who carry pacemakers must consult their doctor before using this appliance.

Self-massage is a good daily practice that promotes blood and lymphatic circulation and reduces water retention, one of the causes of cellulite. Adding special cosmetic products during the massage will also enhance their e󰀨ectiveness because the cream or oil will be better absorbed. The treatment signicantly improves overall wellbeing by relaxing muscular tension, alleviating pain, reducing stress and fatigue, stimulating blood circulation and restoring energy. The results will NOT BE IMMEDIATE. After the rst six weeks, the skin will be noticeably smoother and tighter in the treated areas but the treatment must be continued. Massaging can also be used to prevent and reduce cellulite as soon as it appears, but it should be combined with a balanced diet and physical exercise in cases in which it is more evident. Recommendations for a good self-massage: Self-massage is best done in the morning because the body is rested and more receptive. During the evening, especially after a long day spent sitting down or on your feet, the blood in the legs has already pooled and additional stress 10may increase the inammation so it is best to apply only cream with a light massage at this time of day. How to do a self-massage: Massage the areas to be treated in small concentric circles. The friction helps to improve local circulation. Use a uid and slow motion, moving from the bottom up and without applying excessive pressure to the tissues. Massaging the legs and feet is especially good for alleviating the sensation of tiredness and heaviness and promoting a pleasant relaxed feeling. Warnings

Accessories 3a and 3b are known as multinodes due to the various shaped protrusions which have been specically designed to simulate nger pressure, an ancient massage technique that is performed by pressing the ngers on the points of the body that correspond to the organs. Using these, you can perform percussion massages of varying intensity. Applying greater pressure will result in a deeper massage. The 3c roller accessory is used to perform a vibration massage that works against cellulite due to the up and down movement. It also promotes good blood circulation. Accessory 3d is particularly useful for a more delicate and less intense friction massage which is still just as pleasurable and e󰀨ective. It is recommended for alleviating muscular pain from cramps due to the mild, relaxing action of the massage. The infrared/heat function combined with a massage applies heat to the skin which helps absorb the nutrients from the cosmetic products used.
