A vacuum therapy session is done in three main steps:
1 – The deep palpate-rolling manual massage
(duration: 7min. per leg):
Once the client is lying on her stomach,
• begin by first giving a palpate-roll massage on the
back of the thighs.
kneading the fat from the back and side of the thighs to
dissolve the fat masses and increase the blood
circulation and lymphatic system.
Gently grasp/pinch and roll the skin between the
fingers, from bottom to top.
Massage from the back of the thighs to the buttocks to
manually push the fat towards the buttocks.
It is recommended to use a dry massage oil during the massage to further increase the efficiency but be careful
not to apply too much so that it is not sucked up by the suction machine afterwards, as this could damage it.
2 – Small suction cups massage
(duration: 7min. per leg)
• Use a vacuum therapy machine to aspirate the skin
from the lower thighs up to the buttocks
Use a fairly small suction cup with a large enough
suction to lift the skin and fat behind the thighs and on
the side of the thighs.
Once the suction cup is well adhered to the skin of the
lower thighs, slowly go up to the area that will need to
increase in volume (the middle of the buttocks).
Place your other hand behind the suction cup and push
the skin towards the suction cup at the same time as
you go up towards the buttocks.
Once at the buttocks, lift the suction cup off and start again from the lower thighs and so on.
This will allow the fat to be sucked out deeply and this movement will irrigate the blood and drain the adipose
tissue by mobilizing the fat towards the lymphatic system.
3 – The large suction cups Therapy
(duration: 30 min) :
Finally, the most important part: suctioning the entire buttock with the largest suction cup
•Stick the large suction cups exactly in the middle
of each buttock.
As a guide, apply the bottom of the suction cup on
the fold line at the bottom of the buttocks between
the end of the buttocks and the beginning of the leg.
Then increase the suction of the machine until the
skin of the buttocks is well lifted. Some machines
will offer the possibility of continuous suction and
others will offer cyclic suction. Both types of
suction work very well. It is recommended to use
both methods during a treatment.
Leave the suction cups in this position for 30
minutes. After a few minutes, however, it is
possible for you to move the suction cups elsewhere
on the buttock (either to the sides, higher or lower,
etc.) if your client wishes to have more volume in a certain area of the buttock. Always keep an eye on the
colour of the buttock inside the suction cup, if it changes from red to blue, it means that the pressure is too
high, then decrease the suction power. It is also possible to put the machine in cyclic mode at the end of the
treatment for another 30 minutes to maximize the results.
Note:
It is normal for the buttocks to be red after a vacuum therapy and for the client to feel some slight soreness.
This will subside quickly.
Always wear gloves, do not do this treatment with people with serious health problems, metal parts inside the
body and during electrical storms.
After a minimum of 6 to 12 sessions initially, 1 to 2 sessions in the following years, a good diet and some
exercise, the results will be long lasting.
*For people who do not respond well to treatment, do 13 to 16 sessions initially instead of 12 and one session
per month starting in the following months.
