"My experience with endermologie:

May of 1999 is when I started going for endermologie sessions.  Before this I tried pills, which didn't work and were a waste of money.  I tried this other mail order cream with a brush which you're supposed to brush the skin before applying.  This I did every morning and night for about a year.  The cost was $80 for a 3 month supply.  Although I did notice an improvement, it was a job to do, and quite time consuming.  I tried those hand massagers which I bought 2, one for each hand and I'd apply the massagers to my thighs and buttocks for 20 minutes a day.  I did this for 6 months.  I was quite faithful in doing all of these methods.  The 20 minute massages showed NO improvement!

When I started endermologie, I tried to go as often as I could but they were often too booked to take me twice in 1 week.  So I went once and if I was lucky, twice a week for about 3 months.  Then I went, on average, about once every 2 1/2 weeks for about 9 months.  It was May of 2000 that I started going to Total Body Image with Renee for endermologie.  I did notice some improvement before going to Total Body Image but I was disappointed with the amount of improvement.  That's when Pete, an endermologie expert, did a little endermologie on me and told me I was resistant.  He did a percentage of fat test on me and said I was about 17% which is quite low for a female.  He said I was well hydrated.  I drink 64 oz. of water a day plus I ad 16 oz. for every drink I have and 16 oz. if I have a candy bar which I seldom do.  I was quite discouraged but felt I do have some improvement with the reduction of cellulite and if I stop it'll only go back to a year ago and be much worse.  I also had an improvement with body sculpture results.  I work out about 4 hrs a week every week, sometimes more.  I eat right.  I'm under weight.  I'm 5"7  and weigh between 118 and 122 lbs.  But I still noticed an improvement with body sculpture which was encouraging.  Now I go every 4 weeks and still notice a slight improvement in cellulite and it maintains the body sculpture.
