What is a Body Wrap? Body Wrapping is a comfortable, effective way to eliminate toxins and impurities that have built up in the body and reduce or eliminate cellulite. The process involves wrapping the body in cotton and elastic cloths that are soaked in a detoxifying formula.
What kind of results can I expect? Typically, a person will lose between five and 15 inches in one body wrap.
How long does it take? A Body Wrap typically takes about 90 minutes. For best result and maximum inch loss, the wrap should stay on for 60 minutes. Measuring, wrapping and unwrapping take an additional 30 minutes.
How many wraps will I need? You will get noticeable results with one wrap, but a series of wraps is recommended for lasting results. If you are preparing for a party or an event, you can be wrapped two to three times a week, with at least one day between treatments. The number of wraps you will need for maximum results will depend on many factors including the amount of cellulite you wish to remove and your body composition.
What do I wear? A wrap is most effective when it comes in direct contact with the area to be treated. We recommend that you wear an extra set of underclothes or a bikini style swimsuit. Your garments will get wet, so bring an extra set to wear home.
Are there different kinds of wraps? There are many different types of wraps. There are detoxifying wraps that use herbs to pull toxins out of the body and there are mud or clay wraps that increase inch loss and also provide a firming and toning effect to the skin.
How can I maintain my results from a wrap?
• For best results, do not shower before the wrap or for six to eight hours after. Soaps lotions and creams clog the pores and interfere with your results.
• Drink two to three liters of water every day to flush toxins and impurities out of the body.
• Avoid eating after 6:30 p.m.
• Avoid alcoholic and carbonated beverages.
• Limit salt, sugar and caffeine.
• Reduce animal fats, especially red meat and dairy products.
• Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables every day.
• Exercise at least three times per week.
