A body wrap can detoxify your body while helping you to shed excess inches. Body wraps have been used in cleansing and beautification rituals since the time of the Egyptians, and are currently experiencing a rise in popularity as a natural way to help shape and tone the body.
According to founder Miria Kutcher of San Francisco body wrap provider Venus Bodywork, the right body wrap can provide visible contouring and slimming in just about an hour, making it the ideal complement to a weight loss, detoxification or aesthetic program. It’s also a great way to look your best for a big event like a wedding or vacation.
What Is a Body Wrap?
Body wraps utilize therapeutic ingredients, compression and either heat or cold to stimulate circulation, detoxify the body and produce a slimming effect. During a body wrap, a special lotion or mask is applied to the skin, and then the body is wrapped in either plastic or mylar for warmth and compression (for some wraps, cold therapy can also be used). Once wrapped, the client usually lies still for 20 to 40 minutes.
Depending on the type of wrap you choose, you can expect to experience benefits ranging from detoxification to noticeable inch loss. And body wraps can be beneficial for the skin as well. Some wraps can help to firm sagging skin, others provide nourishing moisture. Still others can boost the immune system and help to relieve aches and pains.
