Description

Massage can be based on mechanical manipulation of body tissues and joints (western classical or medical massage) or massage can be based on touch
Cellulite describes a condition that occurs in men and women where the skin of the lower limbs, abdomen, and pelvic region becomes dimpled after puberty. The term was first used in the 1920's and began appearing in English language publications in the late 1960s, the earliest reference in Vogue magazine, "Like a swift migrating fish the word cellulite has suddenly crossed the Atlantic."
Descriptive names for cellulite include orange peel syndrome, cottage cheese skin, the mattress phenomenon, and hail damage. It is unrelated to cellulitis, which is infection of the skin and its underlying connective tissue. Hormones play a dominant role in the formation of cellulite. Diet has been shown to affect the development and amount of cellulite. Excessive amounts of fat, carbohydrates, salt, alcohol or too little fibre can all contribute to an increase in cellulite. Smoking, lack of exercise, tight clothes, high heeled shoes, and sitting or standing in a single position for long periods have all been correlated with an increase in cellulite. A high stress lifestyle will cause an increase in the catecholamine hormones.
Cellulite affects many people and is the subject of much debate. Aromatherapy has been thought in some instances to work well for this condition and massage combined with essential oils has been considered to help.
Geranium and Rosemary are said to have a stimulating effect on the lymphatic system. Juniper is said to help in situations where accumulated toxins are associated with fluid retention so Juniper can be detoxifying which is important in helping with cellulite. The action of massage in itself can also be good and skin brushing or bathing using these oils may prove beneficial.
Diet, exercise, reducing the amount of stress in life, stopping smoking and massage have all been linked with helping to reduce cellulite but no definitive proof has been given that any single factor can scientifically get rid of it.
The manfacturers makes no medicinal claims for this blend of oil and it is important to read the warning before use. This product is most effective when used as a massage oil.
