Hip Shaping

Our hip shaping table tones and firms tummy, hips and upper thighs, and strengthens stomach muscles. It's massage action of hip pads stimulates circulation and aids in the breakdown of cellulite.

Cellulite or fatty deposits are those flabby, lumpy, rippling, rolls that settle most often in the hips and upper thighs. Although there has been some controversy over the years about the existence of what we call cellulite and conflicting views about how to get rid of it, every woman agrees that it does exist and doesn't just disappear through dieting alone.

Exercise can help the body eliminate this extra fat, especially when it is supplemented by local massage - for example, the hip shaping table. The alternatively moving pads create a massaging effect, stimulating the blood circulation in these particular areas effected by cellulite. It also firms and tones the hips with the additional isometrics and simulates the "hip walk" exercise some women are familiar with as a floor exercise. The additional resistive exercises done on this table tones and firms your muscles and in the process causes your small fatty deposits to be reabsorbed, or burned up, by turning them into energy. Thus, resistive exercises that contract and tighten the muscles can result in redefinition of the body.

According to Dorland's medical dictionary, "cellulite is the collection of fat, water and waste fluids that are located in connective tissue which is between the skin and the muscles producing the dimpled fat under the skin." Lack of exercise, bad eating habits, poor circulation, and excess water retention all contribute to the cellulite problem. With our correct exercise program, eating plan, and improved circulation, cellulite is very much improved. In most cases, where the complete program is followed faithfully, cellulite is completely eliminated.
