❶ Self-massage Of Feet - Anti-cellulite Massage

Women who do not have time to visit a beauty salon should learn a few procedures that can be performed on their own at home. Among them are anti-cellulite self-massage, which is recommended to be combined with the use of citrus essential oils, as well as special cosmetics. Location: Location: When performing self-massage, be very careful not to press too hard on the skin. Painful sensations and even more bruising should not be in any case. Be sure to warm both hands and feet before the massage, and also treat problem areas of the skin with an anti-cellulite scrub. Apply to your feet either a cream with a few drops of orange, grapefruit, lemon or tangerine oil, or a special massage oil. Stretch your legs, starting with the feet and gradually moving up.

First, gently run your palms down your leg from feet to hips several times. Then knead your foot vigorously, firmly, starting at the tips of your toes. Work through each section, and then thoroughly rub the entire foot in a circular motion. Then gently massage each finger separately, flexing and unbending as you massage.

Grasp the lower leg with your hands so that your thumbs are underneath. Then use one hand to stroke in a zigzag motion and the other to straight lines. Repeating this movement several times, tighten your fingers and begin to move your hand from the foot to the knee, pressing with your fingertips on the skin and flexing the muscles. Then grab the wrist with the fingers of both hands, lift it up and begin to shake it harder and looser.

Finally, massage your thigh. Take a sitting or reclining position with your legs relaxed. Then, with both hands, gently stroke your thigh, moving from bottom to top. After repeating stroking several times, place one palm on the outside of the thigh, and the other on the inside, and, pressing your fingers firmly on the skin, move them from the bottom up. Then wrap your palms around your thigh and perform circular motions while squeezing your leg. The intensity of the massage can gradually change. Finally, work on the most problematic areas of the skin by gently but firmly tapping and patting them with your fingers.
