Mrs Saliu gawked at her friend's perfectly toned, firm skin and well-shaped body. The last time they saw each other was months ago during the wedding ceremony of her younger sister. She had changed from the flabby-looking woman into a more physically toned woman. Mrs Saliu couldn't keep her gaze away from her. Occasionally, her friend would look at her and give her a smile. Mrs Saliu wondered if she was aware of the effect her new body shape and look had on people. She looked away when she caught her gaze the third time. She made up her mind to ask her for her secret once they are alone. She needed to do something about her own body as well. Her husband had started grumbling and complaining. She did not miss the look of awe and admiration that flickered on his face when she saw her. She wants him to look at her that way too.
'Hey, Mrs Saliu.! What's up? You couldn't keep your eyes off me all this while. Her friend smiled as they stood side by side watching their children play
Mrs Saliu shifted from one leg to the other uncomfortably 'Actually, I have been wondering the kind of transformation you went through that made you look this toned and good. Care to share your secret?'
'You have not changed. You're still as direct as ever. Well, all thanks to healthyish' She made a 360° turn to show her full body and laughed as Mrs Saliu watched her with admiration.
'Healthyish? What's that? Is it a drink or something?'
'Nah! More like who's that? She's a health and lifestyle coach that introduced me to a procedure called pressotherapy. Pressotherapy has lots of health benefits and I've been enjoying it so far' She said.
'Wow! I'm impressed. Can you link me up with her? And tell me more about this life-changing procedure'.
'Well, I will tell you about it but you have to book an appointment with her to get the full benefits. It doesn't come free, though'
'Sure, I don't mind. Please link me up. I need to also look sleek'
Pressotherapy involves the application of pressure to various parts of the body to improve circulation and lymphatic drainage. It is often used for treating conditions such as lymphedema, varicose veins and cellulite. There are other health benefits of pressotherapy which would be discussed in this article.
1. Improved circulation: Pressotherapy helps to stimulate blood flow and oxygen delivery to the tissues which can help to alleviate swelling, pain and discomfort in the affected area.
2. Enhanced lymphatic drainage: The lymphatic system helps to remove waste and toxins from the body. Pressotherapy helps to stimulate the lymphatic system leading to improved detoxification and a boost in the immune function.
3. Reduction in the appearance of cellulite: Cellulites consist of small packets of fats that are located just beneath the skin's surface and result in slight lumps or indentations on the skin particularly on the legs and buttocks in women. Pressotherapy helps to break down these fatty deposits and improve the appearance of dimpled skin thereby leading to smoother, firmer skin and more toned physique
4. Reduction in water retention and bloating: It promotes elimination of excess fluids thereby reducing swelling and alleviating discomfort associated with fluid retention.
Pressotherapy also helps to
· Increase energy
· Reduce fatigue and depression
