Body treatments
Some of the problems most people face during their lives are cellulite, stretch marks, fat deposits and sagging skin. In situations where regular training and a proper diet do not give adequate results, body treatments come into play.
Working from a sound knowledge of the human body and a holistic view of the whole person, so as to understand where the problem comes from, and with the help of a rich range of techniques and premium products, we have developed a complete body-shaping and body-care programme. Our results in this area are very good and long-lasting and, more importantly still, our methods are harmless to our clients' health. Only a healthy body can also be a beautiful one.
CAVITATION – ULTRASONIC LIPOSUCTION
Ultrasonic cavitation of fat cells is a method of partially removing fat deposits and cellulite using ultrasound.
It is a non-invasive and painless therapy that allows the body to be reshaped quickly, safely and effectively. Fat deposits in the subcutaneous tissue are broken down, which directly results in a reduction in the circumference of the treated part of the body.
The principle of cavitation
To explain cavitation in the simplest terms, remember that the evaporation of a liquid depends on pressure. The lower the pressure above the liquid, the lower the temperature at which it boils, and vice versa. A reduction in pressure can be brought about by ultrasound waves. Lowering the pressure causes the liquid (water) to boil (evaporate) and vapour bubbles to form.
Given that two thirds of the human body is water, when this phenomenon occurs near the cell membrane of a fat cell there is a high probability that the membrane will rupture. Whether the process described will occur depends on the amount of fatty tissue, the condition of the fat cells and the amount of intercellular fluid. Damaged cell membranes of fat cells will rupture more easily in the next treatment if the interval between treatments is not too long.
Fat from the fat cells is released into the intercellular space in the form of triglycerides, where enzymes break it down (lipolysis) into glycerol and free fatty acids. The released glycerol, which is water-soluble, enters the metabolic processes for producing energy via the lymphatic system, while the insoluble fatty acids travel to the liver, where they are broken down like any other fatty acid taken in with food.
ELECTROMAGNETIC STIMULATION
The principle of electrostimulation consists of stimulating the nerve fibres by means of electrical impulses transmitted through electrodes. The electrical impulses produced by the stimulator are high-quality impulses that offer safety, comfort and effectiveness and allow various types of nerve to be stimulated.
- When motor nerves are used to drive muscle work, the quality of which depends on the stimulation parameters applied, we speak of electrical muscle stimulation (EMS).
- Specific types of sensory nerve fibres are targeted in order to achieve pain relief.

VACUUM SLIM
For body shaping and weight loss
The vacuum RF probe stimulates the metabolism of the tissue, counteracts cellulite, which forms granules of fat at various depths, and creates fusion energy; the deepest receptor can act at a depth of 3cm within the tissue. Rapid expansion and rapid heating of the cell wall beyond the limits of elasticity revitalises the cells, so that burning off the fat deposits at the same time flushes fat out of the body, reducing the size of the granules not only by burning the fat deposits but also directly, through rapid emptying.
