I hope this post helps women (and some men, too) who suffer from cellulite, many of whom have tried all kinds of recommendations and found that nothing really works. What is described in this post is an inexpensive method of self-help for getting rid of cellulite and reconfiguring the underlying skin tissue, which is causing the problem. Cellulite is not just "fat."
While most people recommend diet, exercise, and nutritional supplements to get rid of cellulite, there is a secret (now-not-so-secret) method to get rid of the kind of fat that many women have, especially after pregnancy. This is not normal fat. Instead, it appears to be a change in the underlying fabric of tissue in the skin of women due to an increase in estrogen, which allows for reproduction. It appears as indentations in the skin, even on parts of the body where there is very little body fat.
Because this is not ordinary fat, exercising and nutrition only go so far in reducing it. This was discovered by a Youtuber in her forties, who had several pregnancies and lost all the weight, built muscle, but still could not get rid of the cellulite.
Several months ago, she began doing videos of herself using silicone and plastic suction cups. She was making a little progress, but still not enough.
Then, she began combining the cupping with using a wooden "fascia blaster" stick and other types of hand-held roller massagers. The results were remarkable. It appears that combined with diet and working out it is possible to use the cups combined with the massage rollers to literally sculpt areas of the body where the fascia, which is the underlying tissue of the skin, is out shape.
In the sampling of her videos, which are posted below, she shows you her own protocol for getting rid of cellulite and reshaping the underlying tissue, which is causing the rippling, dimpling appearance. Apparently, when this underlying tissue is reconfigured through cupping and massaging, it begins returning to normal.
She always recommends drinking a lot of water because when you massage and disturb the underlying tissues in this way, they release any impurities they might be holding onto and drinking plenty of water helps to expel them from your system.
Essentially, she recommends "warming up" the fascia by cupping for 3 to 15 minutes on the area of concern using coconut oil, olive oil, other oil, or lotion. The she follows this with the application of a certain type roller massager that has nubs on it that "knead" the skin and muscles. In her earlier videos, she used more pressure, but then discovered that it was not necessary.
She has many videos showing you how to do it and she tries out different types of suction cups and massagers. The author of this post has found that using inexpensive silicon and hard plastic cups ordered off Ebay and equally inexpensive massage rollers works pretty well, too. The results are remarkable, just within inexpensive, no-name brands of similar-looking items. The author's own investment in these things is under $15! Yet, the results are very similar to what the Youtuber shows in this sampling of videos:
