Direction “Endermologie” or in other words, massage according to technology LPG, appeared in cosmetics in the twentieth century, but we learned about it not long ago and called “the modern today”. Originally the method was intended for the rehabilitation of patients who have suffered injuries of varying severity.
How did LPG come about?
In 1986 in France has company LPG Systems. LPG – the first letters of the name of the founder, engineer Louis Field Gita (Louis Paul Guitay), Creator of the “revolutionary method” Endermologie sufferers. He had an accident and suffered serious injuries, including burns. After treatment left a lot of scarring and adhesions; Gita could not even walk normally, and pain tormented constantly.
Restorative massage helped a little, and specialist uploaded by the patients, the afternoon was very tired: hands “do not iron”.
Gita helped specialty: he used the power of alternating vacuum and constructed a device, “able” to do massage in different ways; it is well named – LPG-massager.
Gita soon recovered; the invention was patented and started talking about Endermologie is not only doctors but also beauticians, quickly taking the technology to “adopt”. Now the method called “the perfect solution for the treatment of cellulite and figure correction” and “a great alternative to liposuction”.
How it works
The function of the therapist in the LPG machine runs a specially crafted roller. Each has its own specialization, for example, gripping and kneading; the influence of vacuum on the problem areas of the body provides a burst of blood: tissue immediately receives a lot of oxygen and nutrition.
The lymph flow is also enhanced and the decomposition products (fats, toxins, etc.) are quickly removed from the cells and excreted from the body.
The “awakened” of tissue are beginning to be updated – starts collagen production and elastin, but the overall effects of LPG massage much wider.
During the LPG-massage procedure, the skin and subcutaneous layers are rejuvenated – the collagen content increases by more than 2 times, and the cellulite nodules disappear – a bright result. But the work of the whole organism also improves: the blood and lymph are “warmed up”, the metabolism is accelerated, the work of the lungs, heart and other internal organs is activated; cellular defenses also increase.
Tips for working with the body and face are different in principle: so face when massage is not warming up. “Smart camera” adjusts the strength of the impact, given the state of the treated tissue of the patient. For the destruction of persistent fatty deposits select an intensive program of LPG-massage, but the degree of intensity to calculate a specialist in the consultation before the procedure is mandatory.
