Following my recent post about flushing fat from the body using a combination of apple cider vinegar and grapefruit juice see here, it seems appropriate to mention about how to get rid of stubborn cellulite. Cellulite can affect slim and overweight women alike and is very annoying when you have tried your best to lose weight but still have this ugly dimply skin. Wellnessmama and top 10 remedies have provided the treatments mentioned below.
Cellulite seems to be one of those problems that plagues many women these days. Based on the number of times cellulite remedies appear in women’s magazines, websites, and blogs, I’m guessing that this is a problem we still haven’t solved.
Most sources agree that the dimpled appearance of cellulite occurs due to problems/imbalance in the connective tissue and fat in a person’s body, but there are many theories about what may cause this imbalance. It seems that hormones, diet, lifestyle and genetics all play a role but are not absolutes. While those who are overweight tend to have a higher chance of getting cellulite, many thin women complain of it as well.
Here are the 7 effective ways to get rid of cellulite in the thighs.
1. Dry Brushing
Dry brushing is one of the simplest ways to get rid of cellulite in your thighs. The process of dry brushing improves blood circulation and lymphatic drainage, and removes the build-up of toxins from the upper skin layer, which in turn reduces the appearance of cellulite. Be sure to use a body brush made with natural fibers.
- Before beginning, make sure your skin and the brush are both dry.
- Gently brush from your feet up to your shoulders, focusing more on areas with the most cellulite. Remember to brush from left to right side of the body and keep the brushing movements concentrated toward the heart to encourage blood circulation.
- Do this dry brushing for about five minutes.
- Finally, shower to wash away the dead skin cells and impurities.
- Do this once daily before taking a shower for a few months or until you notice improvement in your skin texture.
