What is cellulite exactly?
Cellulite is the term for fat deposits that press on the connective tissue under the skin. It usually occurs on the thighs, abdomen and buttocks. Cellulite gives the skin's surface a lumpy, wrinkled, or dimpled appearance. Cellulite affects both men and women. However, women are much more likely to suffer from cellulite than men.
Genetics, gender, age, body fat and skin thickness determine the extent of cellulite and its visibility. As we age, skin loses elasticity, which can make cellulite even more noticeable. Weight gain can also increase the appearance of cellulite
Cellulite does not affect your overall physical health, nor is it painful. However, they might just not like the way it looks.
A deep tissue massage can help with cellulite. For long-term success, however, regular massage treatment is necessary, which becomes too expensive for most. However, treatment with a massage gun can achieve identical goals in the treatment of cellulite, as several studies have shown, and all for a fraction of the price of regular massage therapy.
How exactly does a massage gun help against cellulite?
The vibrations of high-quality massage guns, such as the Fitgun, usually lead to an improvement in the aesthetic appearance of cellulite by improving the flow of venous and other fluids the collagen tissue in the cellulite pits is altered.
This effect can range from a simple change in the color of the dimples to a slight improvement in appearance, depending on the person and the severity of the cellulite, as the fluid accumulated in and around the dimples is temporarily eliminated. It is therefore recommended to use the Fitgun regularly.
The percussion therapy will lead to a lasting improvement, especially in combination with regular exercise. Because exercise can help improve the appearance of cellulite. Regular exercise increases muscle mass, which flattens cellulite. It also increases blood circulation in certain areas of the body, which accelerates fat loss.
