Efficient Ways of Cellulite Reduction

A flat stomach, firm bottom and firm thighs are every woman's cherished dream. But when these parts are plagued by the Orange Peel Syndrome, it really causes great concern, especially in western culture, where women tend to exhibit more of their body parts. It is fairly a common phenomenon, estimated to affect more than 90% of the female population. Though it is mainly associated with the overweight condition, skinnies are affected alike.

The most common causes for this malady are poor circulation and various digestive problems such as constipation, slow metabolism etc. As a cure there are so many expensive creams, lotions, and injections are available in the market these days. Even women are opting for plastic surgery, cosmetic surgeries like liposuction or mesotherapy etc. Some are even hiring beauty therapists and personal trainers to help them out. But what about those who really can't afford these expensive solutions or simply don't have time for them.

Well, here comes the good news for them. Just by following the EMD method, they can definitely reduce their cellulite to a great extent. Devote only 20-30 minutes a day, and you will get back your slim 'n' smooth body again.

So what is this EMD method? This stands for right Exercise, right Massage and right Diet.

1. Exercising Your Own Way: By exercising, it doesn't mean that you have to do body building and hardcore exercises. What you have to aim at are simple cardiovascular exercises that require the body to use oxygen at higher speed. You can do speed walking, jogging, skipping, stair climbing, cycling, swimming etc. These activities helps to burn up a lot of calories and improve the circulation of your body. Yoga is also a good option for this. You can go for simple asanas like Pashchimottanasana, Dhanurasana, Simhasana and so on. Pranayam also helps to detoxify your body and thereby reduce the chance of getting it.

So now it's time to say good bye to your personal trainer and work out your own way to have a beautiful body.

2. Massage It Away: Besides these exercises, massaging your body also helps to a great deal in reducing those orange patches. You can take any moisturizing lotion with aloevera or oils like olive, almond etc. and gently but firmly massage your thighs and legs in upward movements, gradually working towards the heart. It is better to do this before going to bed at night. It will also boost your circulation and help to minimize your cellulite.

3. Watch Your Diet: Finally comes the diet part which is also equally important. And the formula here is to concentrate on high fiber and low salt 'n' low fat food. Consume a lot of fruits and juices as these are rich in antioxidants which fight against the wrinkling and sagging of the skin. Take potassium and zinc rich foods like carrot, beets, broccoli, banana, spinach, yoghurt etc. Don't forget to cut back on your tea, coffee and alcohol intake. Instead you can take herbal teas like fennel, rosemary, gotukala etc.
