Lypossage – What is it?

Lypossage: “The kind of massage that helps in contouring the body and weight loss, lypossage is something that you need to try if you are looking for a treat for your mind and body.”

With the word massage, the only thing that comes to mind is a relaxing therapy for both the mind and the body. However, with lypossage, you get one extra benefit and that is something you will never want to miss: reducing the presence and appearance of body fat.

We live in a time where everyone is striving to look their best. Body fat and cellulite are looked down upon to a level where everybody wants to get rid of them. Usually, people use creams and undergo painful treatments to eliminate the cellulite appearance. However, lypossage is one such massage technique that has been tailor-made for this purpose.

The word lypo has been derived from “lipo” which means “fat”. The massage came into the limelight in 1999 by Charles W. Wiltsie III, B.SLMT as a practice of body contouring. The experiment carried out by him showed a decrease in body fat in 95% of the participants.
