How does Body Contouring work?
Body contouring uses low frequency ultrasonic waves that burst and liquify fat cells, transferring all their contents to free fatty acids, that are then naturally expelled by urine, sweat, or fecal matter over a 72-hour time period. Removing blocked fat cells results in the body loosing inches in treated area.
The body is made up of two main systems (Lymphatic System & Circulatory System), moving and stretching the body is very important so the body can naturally expel toxins and excess fluid that’s stored in our tissues.
