Lypossage
Lypossage is a alternative to liposuction cleanses the body of stagnant stalled
lymphatic fluid that can create the lumps and bulges
known as cellulite. The massage strokes are deep and
break up adhesions under the skin that contribute to a
dimpled uneven appearance. Lypossage also tones muscle
tissue, lifting and firming. Lypossage is divided into
three zones. Zone one thighs, buttocks, and lower
abdomen, zone two includes back, upper abdomen, and
arms, zone three concentrates on the face, neck, and
head resulting in a natural face lift. Treatments are 30
minutes long and are done in a series of 18 over 6
weeks.

Lypossage, a new massage technique from the US, is being
touted as the natural alternative to liposuction.
Developed by massage therapist Charles Wiltsie, it uses
deep tissue massage followed by lymphatic drainage.
"Studies done on the technique show size loss, rather
than weight loss, says Gina Broso, of Gina's Human
Tuning in Canberra, who is the first to bring lypossage
to Australia. "Because of more efficient lymphatic
drainage, studies show that side effects include better
functioning of the digestive system, better muscle
control and posture." ~ Good Medicine, July 2000
Touted as the natural alternative to liposuction,
Lypossage is a massage-based deep-tissue body contouring
treatment that reportedly helps clients lose inches, and
reduce cellulite and abdominal fat. Some of the
technique's most dramatic effects are said to be on
areas prone to sagging, such as the lower face and neck,
as well as the glutes and upper thighs. The treatments
last about 30 minutes and are performed in a series of
18 over the course of 6 weeks. Lypossage practitioners
are specially trained. ~ Muscle & Fitness Hers,
