Cellulite is one of the most common complaints women have when it comes to their butt and thighs. If these are causing an eyesore in the midst what would otherwise be great looking legs and a sexy butt, then the use of home cellulite massagers are one way that you can proactively take the situation into your own hands and banish that cellulite for good!
Although stubborn, the good news is that cellulite can be reduced in appearance, even to the point where it is not visible at all.
Regular massage is a proven way to reduce the appearance of cellulite (). This is great news for anyone who has ever been afflicted with this horrible uneven cottage-cheese bumpiness, and wished it would just go away.
In today’s market of over-saturated, hyped-up, anti-cellulite gimmicks, it’s ironic that simple massage and tissue manipulation is one of the most effective ways to reduce and , and it can be free too.
Even simply manipulating your problem areas with your fingers to give yourself a self-massage for about 15 minutes a day can yield great results when it comes to diminishing the appearance of cellulite, especially for women who most commonly see cellulite appear on the backs of the thighs and butt.
If you’re lucky you may have had the luxury of receiving a professional massage treatment at a spa or beauty salon that was aimed at targeting stubborn cellulite.
While these are absolutely great and can be both relaxing and effective, regular massage treatments at a spa can be expensive and quickly add up in price. Unfortunately, when it comes to massage as a cellulite treatment, it requires consistency in order to show results. You will therefore need to undergo multiple, ongoing treatments in order to continue to reap the benefits of smooth, cellulite-free thighs and hips.
An alternative option is to turn to options for cellulite massage that can be performed in the comfort and privacy of your own home, for no ongoing cost other than some initial equipment.
Cellulite massagers that you can use at home range from cheap roller massage units to more expensive units which incorporate suction and mechanical rollers.
Both can be effective, and it is a matter of personal preference as to which you may prefer to use.
Manual cellulite rollers require no power and are simple devices that often contain either rollers or soft nubs to create a frictional massage to the skin and lower tissues. These are maneuvered by hand and require the user to exert the desired amount of pressure by pressing harder with the roller or massage brush.
The benefits of these massagers is that they are often cheap, easy to use, portable, silent to use, and effective.
A few products that you will find fulfill all these criteria are listed below.
Nayoya Massage Glove
Price: $16.97
Available at:
This funky looking massage mitt comes with a 60 day guarantee, so you can be assured that you are getting a product that will actually work – or your money back. The amount of positive feedback on this product is a true testament to the fact that it does definitely improve the appearance of cellulite.
The best part about the product is that the rotating spheres roll across your skin to reduce any friction, and you can vary the pressure of the massage by adjusting how firmly you push with your hand. To add to the experience, massage nodules work into reflexology points in the palm of your hand while you massage.
Simonida Cellulite Roller
Price: $10.95
Available at:
If you’re after simplicity and portability, a product similar to this massage roller is the way to go. Silent and effective, you can bring this with you anywhere if you travel often, due to its small size.
This one comes in a few different colors and is also easy to use, though I don’t like the handle on it as much because I think it makes it a bit difficult to use when gripped the way it is intended.
If the thought of constant work pressing a manual massage device against your skin is too tiring, then there is also the option for using a machine roller or massage device.
These wired plug-pack powered systems are designed for at-home use, and contain a vacuum as well as mechanical rollers that will do all the hard massage work for you. You simply need to pass the device over your skin, which means no more pushing and pressing to create that extra pressure for the massage.
The is one of the cheaper powered devices that can be used for at-home cellulite treatment.
Price: $55.75
Available from:
This little unit comes with all the cellulite-busting features that you might find in any spa treatment, such as heating, vibration massage, motorized rollers and a deep suction to boot.
Bliss FatgirlSlim Lean Machine
Price: $145.00
Available from:
This machine is a bit more expensive, but it is a very close fit to what you would expect from a professional spa treatment.
The product comes with an anti-cellulite cream and uses suction and rollers with an adjustable pulsing action and vacuum setting.
While some cellulite massage equipment for use at-home can seem expensive, it is worthwhile to consider the cost of this versus the alternative of professional spa or salon massage treatments.
A good quality at-home cellulite massaging machine can set you back up to around $60-200, but compare this one-time cost to the cost of just one professional cellulite massage treatment which can be anywhere from $50-100, and you can quickly begin to see the value.
A home cellulite massager also has the added benefit of being able to be used time and time again, so you get a lot more bang for your buck.
Self-massage is an excellent and effective method for reducing and getting rid of unsightly cellulite, though you need to be aware that consistency is the key to success with this type of treatment. Establish a good cellulite massage routine, and you will see results.
Not only is massage for cellulite effective, but it can also be cheap if you elect to invest in an at-home cellulite massager, whether it be manual or machine-assisted/mechanical.
You save money by purchasing a massage tool that can be used to treat cellulite in the comfort and privacy of your own home, when compared to expensive salon cellulite treatments which require multiple and ongoing visits.
I would highly recommend getting yourself some kind of cellulite massager for use at home. I have recently been using a manual cellulite roller with great results (and it costs me nothing to keep using it), so I can’t recommend these enough!
