Endermologie – The Spa Cellulite Massage Roller

Endermologie is the latest cellulite massage roller technology to reach the market. It is also the most effective form of massage available. A hand held cellulite massage roller is used to work on a specific cellulite pocket. The roller is used to increase the blood circulation and also to loosen and break up the cellulite under the skin. The roller could be of various types, but all have the same purpose. After the roller has been used for a few minutes, suction is applied to create short lived symmetrical folds of skin. This suction, after the use of the roller, loosens up the cellulite even more, so that the body is able to naturally flush it away. Heat is also often applied to the massaged area as this increases the flow of toxins and other pollutants from the skin and gives it a healthier tone and glow. The cellulite massage roller plays a role in skin conditioning also as it not only improves skin tone and elasticity, it also help to keep it smooth and even.

Home cellulite massage rollers offer the same benefits as those used in spas, but because the suction and application of heat is not possible, the end results are less. But that does not mean using a cellulite massage roller at home is pointless. You can use it to give yourself a massage every day. How often can you afford to go to the spa? Cellulite massage rollers come in a variety of designs with greatly varying prices. It is best to start off with a simple basic cellulite massage roller and after you are used to it, then try out other more expensive designs to see if any of them suit you more. This way you have a point of reference as to the feel and effectiveness of the other rollers you are trying out.

Remember that while using a cellulite massage roller increases the effectiveness of the massage, it is not going to produce lightning fast results. Whether you massage yourself or get it done in a spa, it will be a few month before you see any noticeable reduction in you cellulite.
