Alternative Cellulite Treatments

By Nicola Williams

The bane of women's lives worldwide, cellulite is pockets of trapped fat underneath the skin, giving skin a lumpy, dimpled appearance. It is not directly the result of weight gain as many people believe, but has many different causes, including genetics. Anti cellulite treatments are popular for getting rid of cellulite and can be very effective, although it is also important to address the causes of the problem.

Cellulite is so common that it is estimated that 90% of women develop cellulite at some stage in their lives. From early adolescence onwards, but particularly as women get older, cellulite can be problematic. In today's society where great value is placed on having a 'perfect' body, it has become very important for women to find a treatment that will get rid of their cellulite so that they have the confidence to show their skin in public.

Ionithermie cellulite reduction treatment is one treatment that many people have found success with. This treatment originates from France and has been proven to reduce cellulite, improve skin elasticity and increase muscle tone. It involves various levels of electrical stimulation using a hand held device.

Another alternative cellulite treatment that is available is the Synergie cellulite reduction, which uses an FDA approved machine for the reduction of cellulite in a non-invasive technique. In a recent study 100% of women who participated noted a loss of inches from their bodyies and 90% had visible improvements in the smoothness of their skin.

What if you want to reduce your cellulite from the comfort of your own home? You can purchase cellulite treatment creams from your local pharmacist to massage into your skin. Particular foods, herbs and spices with detox and antioxidant characteristics are also effective in reducing cellulite.

Body brushing is another way that you can treat your cellulite at home. Dry body brushing stimulates the lymphatic system and combined with drinking lots of water and eating healthily can be very effective in eliminating cellulite. Use a brush with natural bristles and brush the affected areas before showering to improve circulation.

Losing weight can help to improve the appearance of cellulite as it reduces the fat cells underneath the skin. This will not always help as thin people get cellulite too, but if you are suffering from weight problems then weight loss should help. Cutting out junk food and drinking more water should not only help you to lose weight, but should help you to achieve smoother, healthier looking skin as well.

Unfortunately are no easy ways to get rid of cellulite. Most are time consuming and don't come cheap either. Often the best treatment for cellulite is improving your diet, getting regular exercise, and using a technique such as dry body brushing or massage.
