Body Wrap

I have some idea about the recipes and the other requirements, such as keeping the body and room warm to promote sweating…But can anyone explain the actual wrapping technique? What do you use for slimming wraps? Is there something better/wider than tensor bandages? Where do you start wrapping? At the ankles and work your way up? Your arms? Chest, neck, hips… And just how the heck are you supposed to wrap your butt cheeks anyway?? I’ve tried it, and I can’t figure out how to get the bandages in complete contact with the one area that women most want cellulite/fat control: their a**.

Any tips??
If I wanted to go to a day spa, I would. But there are none in my immediate area that offer slimming wraps…just detoxifying seaweed, etc. Nah, I want the kind of wrap that they use compression bandages for. The closest one is 2 1/2 hours away! And it costs $230. Plus they recommend doing a series of wraps. I can’t afford 3-6 wraps at $230 a pop! Especially not if I can get a friend to help me do them at home. I just want to know if anyone out there who has HAD one can give me some pointers about wrapping techniques??

  3. I went to a Sybaritic Spa seminar and they recommended wrapping in cellophane. You can use saran wrap. Due to the width of the saran wrap, you can cut it in half to speed up the application.

    Start at the ankles, wrapping around and working your way up. Overlap the wrap covering up the center of your previous wrap. Make sure the pressure of the wrap does not impede your circulation.

    Check this link for more details on wrapping. I hope this helps.
