It's best to come for your wrap
appointment freshly bathed. Also, avoid using any lotions or perfumes on your
skin in the hours prior to your appointment. Lotions, particularly,
"moisturizers" are often designed to seal skin pores to keep moisture
in. This will also create a barrier which will keep your body from absorbing
The Body Wrap’s formula. Perfumes actually leach minerals from the skin which
can inhibit the effective of the formula. Female clients will bring a change of
bra and panties. Male clients shroud bring a Speedo type swim suit, biker
shorts or colored underwear to be wrapped in; and an extra pair to go home in.
Clients will change into and out of their "wrap" suits once inside a
private changing room.
2. Measurement
A series of 20 body measurements
are made. The measurement sites are marked to ensure accurate measurement after
the wrap. This includes the legs, hips, abdomen, waste, rib cage and upper
arms. Dimensions are recorded on the client's progress chart. The client will
also be weighed for before and after comparison purposes. *We will provide you
a copy of your measurement chart with our After Care Instructions to help you
enhance your body wrap at home.
3. Wrapping
Soft, hypoallergenic stretch
cotton bandages are used. The bandages are pre-soaked in the Body Wrap’s
mineral solution. The entire body must be wrapped for optimum results; however,
the wrap technician will use special techniques to target the client's "problem"
areas. Once the wrap is complete, clients are covered with a robe to minimize
heat loss.
4. Light Exercise
Once the client is wrapped, she
performs light exercise for one hour. The exercise is equivalent to taking a
slow walk for sixty minutes. This is critical to the treatment's success. The
exercise helps move the blood through the body, facilitating the mineral-waste
exchange.
We provide the "gazelle" exercisers, a trampoline as well as an
accelerator pole for your convenience. These machines are easy to use even for
the most sedentary; and, surprisingly, fun. While exercising client's can a
movie or listen to music. *Movie choices are on a first come, first serve
basis.
5. Un-Wrap &
Re-Measure
The wrap is removed and the
client is re-measured in exactly the same places as before. "After"
measurements are recorded and compared to "Before" measurements. The
inch loss results are totaled and recorded on the client's progress chart. You can
see the results on paper and in the mirror!
