THEY SAY THERE’S NO SUCH THING AS A
QUICK FIX BUT IF YOU WANT TO LOSE CENTIMETRES
FROM YOUR WAISTLINE IN AN HOUR, THE
INTERNATIONAL BODY WRAP MAY BE JUST THE
TICKET. TARA CASEY REPORTS.
The
power
of clay
As the clay particles become
hydrated, they expand and are
able to absorb many times their
own weight in body toxins. The
solution acts as a magnet for many
toxic elements present in the body
such as free radicals, and draws
out toxins and impurities from the
body while cleansing your skin.
This body detoxifi cation wrap hydrates and slims your body, eliminating
toxins and revealing radiant, glowing skin. It’s ideal as a one-off treatment
to fi t into that special occasion dress or as a course to gain optimum
results. The beauty of this treatment is that if you don’t lose a minimum of 15cm
off your total body circumference, it’s free.
The treatment involves fi rst measuring and marking your body so that
centimetre loss can be calculated after the treatment.
Next comes the fun part as you’re wrapped head to toe with special contour
bandages soaked in natural Dead Sea clay to cleanse and detoxify your body
of impurities such as toxins and free radicals. The bandages are wound around
your body (a relaxing, cooling “mud bath” type of sensation) and a vinyl suit
is worn for warmth and comfort while the power of clay gets to work over the
next hour.
The dead sea clay solution acts like a giant poultice and draws out toxins
and impurities from your body while cleansing your skin and leaving it feeling
softer, smoother and more toned. The clay leaves the skin tissue compressed
and the soft fatty tissues compacted, which results in the measurable centimetre
reduction. In this hydrated form, each clay particle expands, enabling it to pick up
many times its own weight in various body toxins. Clay has amazing detoxifying
properties; it’s a magnet for many toxic elements present in the body such as
free radicals.
After an hour the wraps are removed to reveal skin that is more toned with an
overall improved appearance. Your body ends up smaller and trimmer without
any weight loss. Importantly, the centimetres lost are not a result of water loss
and therefore results should last at least 30 days – and up to 12 months if you
have a healthy lifestyle and don’t put on any weight. The loss of centimetres isn’t
the only star of the show – the wrap improves your circulation and helps to put a
real spring back in your step.
