Marion Caldwell performs the Bioslimbody wrap and 3D Gommage facialBABTAC's Charlie, Hannah and Kath iour Gloucester Training Room.

CharlieThere have been many claims about instantweight losstreatments, miracle products andcellulite wonder creams over the years. Like mostwomen, these products catch my eye before amix of desperation and scepticism creep in. Theold adage of 'eat less,exercise more' iscertainlythe basis of long term weight loss,however thereare treatments that aid the process; particularly inthe reduction of cellulite, where the orange peeleffect can be visibly improved. For me, it's moreabout tone than weight loss.

The treatment isapplied in atwo stage process:Stage 1The Detox Base, Ultra Slim Gel & Ultra SlimCream were vigorOUSly massaged into thelegs, bum, abdomen and arms while I waslying on the couch. The objective of thisis to push the active ingredients into theskin, break up fatty deposits and increasecirculation. After being wrapped in film, Irelaxed under blankets for 40 minutes.

Stage 2The Ultra Slim Effect was then massagedinto the same areas. The massage wascertainly vigorous; not uncomfortablebut you wouldn't fall asleep! The mentholinf(,.JsgdUltra Slim Effect provides an unusual

(sensation of being both cold and hot.

Now for the most important part ... theresults! These speak for themselves; a totalloss of 14.5 cm! Stretch marks, previouslysilver grooves in my skin, were filled out andless visible, and my cellulite was far lessnoticeable, even to my critical eye.

FOllowing testing in France, whichshowed the slimming effect of theingredients continues for up to 12 hoursafter treatment. I was advised not toshower until the following morning, todrink plenty of water and to exercise formaximum results.

As I have very sensitive skin, I did breakout in a heat rash the following day on thetreated areas but this was eased with anantihistamine. Besides, the results were wellworth it!

While I was resting with the wrap, Marionapplied the 3D Gommage anti-agingfacial. Having lived in Australia for a fewyears, the skin around my eyes is sundamaged and lined.

The products used in the facial areloaded with essential oils and antioxidants.Vitamins A. B, C and E have anti-agingeffects, which combined with Marion'sexpert facial rolling technique, lifted andvisibly brightened the skin. The final layerwas a peel that stayed on the skin for 20minutes before being removed. My skinwas visibly brighter and the lines werereduced and hydrated.

HannahI have been on a very well known diet fora couple of months and my enthusiasmwas starting to dwindle, so when I wasasked to participate in a tried and testedfor Bioslimming I was over the moon. Thetreatment lasted for 1h 30min. Fundamentally,all three stages of the product had to bedeeply massaged on.I didn't feel uncomfortable at all. but I did become a bitfidgety during the 3rd stage due to the cool and tinglysensation. However. you can quickly forgive this when yousee the results. I lost over 31cm in total. 5.9 of this was on mywaist. which I found incredible! It is the best I have looked andfelt for years and was a greatly needed confidence boost. Idid get a slight rash on the inside of my arm. abdomen andback the next day, but this went down rapidly and did notbother me.

Essentially, the Bioslimming treatment has given methe boost my diet really needed. and has reignited mydetermination to keep going. From a business point of view,Bioslimming is a lot of physical work for the therapist, due tothe intensity of the massage. Although. once a client hasseen the results. I can assure you that they will be back fortheir 6 course treatment. which can be charged at £59.00 pertreatment. Only time will tell if I can keep the inches off. butMarion assures me that if I stick to my healthy eating plan theresults are indefinite. However. the crucial question is. where ismy nearest Bioslimming salon?

Many thanks to Bioslimming and Marion Caldwellfnr oertorrnlnq these treatments.

KathFacials are my favourite beauty treatmentso I was extremely happy to tryout the 3DGommage Facial. Marion explained thatGommage isthe French word for 'erase'. Thisparticular treatment iseffective for peoplewith fine lines and wrinkles of the face andneck, uneven pigmentation, enlarged facialpores, superficial acne scars, oily skin problemsand age spots.Marion started off by asking what I wanted from the facial.said that I would like a brighter. fresher look to my skin andalso to refine the open pores on my face. She identifiedfurther problem area's I had such as my chin and the skinbetween my eyes, which was rough to the touch. Also, thefine lines on my forehead and around my eyes.

She began by cleansing the face and exfoliating my skin.using the 'rolling off' technique with a beautiful raspberryfragrance exfoliater. She explained that the 3D Gommagefacial works by deeply cleansing the skin. stimulating cellregeneration and improving blood circulation. In turn, thispromotes better oxygenation and increases effectiveness ofthe products so that they are able to penetrate the skin. Itgentty eliminates dead skin cells, which dull the complexion.and' stimulates the production of collagen.

capabilities and limits of their own bodies andappreciate that, to be in good shape, theyneed to exercise and eat well."

The expert maintains that combining acourse of detox or slimming body wrapswith dry body brushing, regular exfoliation toboost circulation and an effective diet andregular exercise, will offer clients more visible,faster and longer-term results. "Combiningspa treatments with personal motivationreally is the fastest and most effective wayto address any concems," she says. ''Thisis why every professional skincare brandoffers a homecare range: they work bestwhen combined with self-maintenance.It's important to reinforce this point whenit comes to slimming treatments so clientsdon't hope for unrealistic results."

So what choices are available on themarket for salons to offer their clients?

Manual labourMassage is one of the oldest methods ofeliminating toxins, helping to aid clients'healthy lifestyles. Using lymphatic drainagetechniques combined with products thatpromote body detoxification, many salonsoffer slimming and cellulite-orientatedservices that can be also be promotedamong clients for relaxation and wellbeing

benefits too.Collin Resultime offers a series of

treatments specificallyjor this purpose.Its new Diet Kick-Start Treatment - whichincludes exfoliation, abdomen massage anda body-firming mask - is ideal to promotein the New Year. Following this, clients canopt for the Algo-Slimming Body Programme,which offers four different methods -including Anti-Cellulite, Contouring, Drainingand l.ipo-Training - that can be combinedfor the individual. According to Collin, thecourse was designed to kick-start enzymesand energy compounds while using activeingredients to break up hard fat and free fattyacids.

Also perfect for post-party season,Germaine De Capuccini's Celluless Systemhas been specifically designed for detox.The treatment consists of three phaseswhere the body is exfoliated, massagedusing the brand's Lipo Drain product,and then wrapped in a plastic ~eet toactivate circulation lipolysis. According tothe company, the procedure "prevents andworks to reduce cellulite through a detoxifyingprocess while reducing fat storage, reducingwater retention as well as toning and firmingthe skin."

Yet another option is the traditional body

[DETOX AND SLIMMING]

wrap. Going one step further than initiatingslimming, many offer instant inch-loss results.Universal Contour Wrap guarantees clientswill lose six inches after one of its ClassicWraps and maintain the results for at least30 days (providing they follow the After Wrapinstructions).

Gill Hardy, sales account manager for thecompany's UK distributor, Totally UK, canvouch for the product firsthand. "Your clothesfeel instantly looser, which motivates youto continue," she says. ''The treatment alsogives your lymphatic system a real kick, whiledrinking more water than normal helps flushout waste and toxins. It also helped tightenmy skin following the weight loss which iscrucial." The expert, who has now lost twostone, believes that, as a weight-lOSS aid,the treatment is a very effective option forsalon owners and their clients: "Both can feelabsolute confidence in the product becauseof the two very strong guarantees," shesays. "The results are instantaneous and,depending on inch loss required, there's nonecessary need for a course."

Meanwhile, Bioslimming is currentlymaking waves as an effective wrap-styletreatment that requires no bandages orequipment. Instead, adopting three gelsand one cream the company claims are "50

per cent stronger than other professionalproducts", the treatment consists of a two-step process combing massage and productapplication. The company claims the activeingredients - which include high levels ofessential oils, plant extracts and caffeine-continue to work for 12 hours, stimulatingthe lymphatic system and helping to bum fatand eliminate toxins. "Excellent feedback isbeing received across the board regardinginch loss, weight loss and reduction inappearance of cellulite," says the company'sMarion Cadwell. "It's an excellent product tobe introduced to any salon treatment menuas it's quick, clean, easy to use and providesinstant long-lasting results which clients love."

Embrace technologyBut slimming treatments don't have to belimited to topical products and massage -more and more of today's successful salonowners are opening themselves up to thebenefits of aesthetics machines.

London's Richard Ward MetroSpa hasintroduced the Celluwell Sonic machineto help clients combat their cellulite. Usingclinically proven technology, it uses apatented ultrasound delivery system todestroy and eliminate fat cells permanently,resulting in a thinner and smoother layer of fatin the treated areas. "Cellulite is a big concemfor many women so we've been lookingfor a treatment that could be backed upwith clinical studies so we could guaranteeresults," says the salon's MD, Hellen Ward."Celluwell fitted the bill."

According to Ward, proven medical resultsshould be at the top of every salon owner'slist when buying expensive machines. "It'snot enough in this economic climate to askclients to invest in anything that doesn'tguarantee results," she says. "We're veryexcited that Celluwell will answer concernsfor people with cellulite."

Also targeting cellulite is Demilec's D-ActorAcoustic Wave Therapy System (£13,995).The machine has been met with suchhigh acclaim that Madonna has had oneinstalled especially for her - a feat that'sbound to gain lots of press coverage. Usingacoustic sound waves that are generatedin an application hand piece and gentlyintroduced to the affected body regions, thetreatment stimulates the skin layers, helpingto breakdown fatty deposits.

Meanwhile, for all over body contouring,Firmslim offers a four-in-one handsetcombining laser therapy, infrared and radiofrequency as well as vacuum suction.The company claims the machine allowstherapists to break down stored fat cells,

retained water and glycerol and then sendthe fluid into the lymphatic system - resultingin reduced cellulite and a slimmer silhouette.Better still, the machine is available on a 'PayAs You Go' contract, where salons outlaya £2,000 deposit and then buy minutes at£0.70 each; the company then recommendscharging clients between £90 - £150 pertreatment, which last approximately 40minutes each.

Keep business fitFor other salons, throwing nutrition and

exercise into the mix is proving to be alucrative combination. And for some, offeringnon-invasive lipolysis treatments - such asthe Laser Lipo Strawberry - followed by amini workout, is becoming the latest solutionfor fast inch-loss.

Having burst onto the market a few yearsago, non-invasive lipolysis uses low lightlasep.therapy or LED light therapy to triggerlipolysis in the fat cells, causing fatty acids

to be broken down and naturally excretedthrough the lymphatic system. Completelypainless, therapists apply paddles to theclient's affected areas and then let themachine do the hard work.

To stimulate the process, clients areadvised to exercise immediately after thetreatment to increase bloody circulation,lymphatic circulation and their metabolism."This increases the body's ability to removethe broken down fat cells," explains PaulRudge from Zen Lifestyles, which regularlysupplies fitness equipment to salons. "Oneof the most popular products we offer for thistype of treatment is the Whole Body Vibration\:NBV') machine. This helps improve muscletone and body fat and salons generaterevenue either by charging for their use oradding value to existing treatments."

Working on the same principle as a PowerPlate, its WBV Reviber Plus machine featuresa vibrating platform the client stands, sits orsquats on, causing the muscles to stretch
