Q. What is
The Body Wrap™?
A. The Body
Wrap™ is a method for helping to visually slenderize and contour
your body shape and visibly tighten your skin in only 60 minutes.
It involves wrapping the body in porous elastic bandages soaked
in a special mineral solution. The Body Wrap is applied firmly
to areas needing inch loss and contouring and lightly where only
skin tightening is desired. It is very healthful and relaxing.
Q. How does it work?
A. Waste, chemicals, stress,
medication and pollution in our environment overload
body systems, causing water retention
and soft, spongy, cellulite-ridden tissue. Wrapping
techniques allow the mineral solution, soaked into the bandages, to assist the
body to cleanse itself, visibly tightening skin, compacting tissue and
firming-up the body quickly.
Q. What is in The
Body Wrap(tm) Solution?
A. Although the solution formula
is secret we can tell you that it is composed entirely of food grade inorganic
minerals (except the Lipase solution which is an enzyme derived from plants) and
distilled water, all of which may be taken internally.
Q. Is The
Body Wrap™ a heat or sauna type treatment?
A. NO. Although
the wraps are applied warm, your body will feel cool. For your
comfort, a poncho is put on you to help you retain your own body
heat.
Q.
How long
does it take to get a body wrap?
A. Allow
a total of 2 to 2 1/2 hours for your first wrap. You are in your
wrap for only 60 minutes; the extra time is for measuring, weighing,
bra fitting, wrapping, unwrapping and re-measuring. Subsequent
wraps take less than 2 hours as you don't need to repeat certain
preparatory steps.
Q. Who will
The Body Wrap™ help?
A. Anyone
who wants to tone and tighten their skin. People with overly dry
or rough skin. People with loose skin due to weight changes or
from pregnancy. Men and women who want to look terrific fast!
Anyone who wants to look and feel younger.
Q. What do
I wear while I am wrapped?
A. Women
are wrapped in a bra and panties (no girdles, please, as they
make accurate measurements impossible). Bring a change of underwear
because what you are wrapped in will be wet. Men are wrapped in
swim trunks they bring with them. For best results Cotton undergarments or swim
trunks are best. Cotton absorbs the mineral solution where spandex for example
will repel it.
Q.
What is
meant by "total inch loss"?
A. Before
we wrap you, measurements are taken of various parts of the body
(hips, calves, waist, midriff, abdomen, upper arms, etc.) and
recorded on your own personal record chart with notes as to where
you want to lose inches or contour. After the wrap you are re-measured
and the difference of your measurements are added to determine
"total inch loss."
Q. How many
wraps will I need?
A. That
depends on several things: The results you seek, the amount of
loose skin you have, how active you are in your wrap, (it's advised
you do mild aerobic motions while you are wrapped) your commitment
to any necessary weight loss program, etc. To maximize your results
you need to get in once or twice a week until your skin looks
tighter, you are satisfied you look great in and out of your clothes,
then it just takes a few times a year for maintenance. On average it will take
10 wraps to drop 1 dress size. We can also wrap 2,3 or 4 times in one day
if time is a factor; i.e., weddings, reunions,
photo shoots, etc.
Q. Why is it
advised to do mild aerobic motions while you are wrapped?
A. To enhance circulation to
assist the body's natural ability to cleanse itself. Many patrons report
a dramatic increase in energy while wrapped as well as after the wrap.
In many cases we have to remind our patrons to "slow down" during
their wraps. You want good results but you don't want to create muscle
soreness or pinching/chafing from the wrap.
Q. What do
I need to know?
A. Common sense says that if you have medical problems and/or anytime you
start a new weightloss/fitness program you should always obtain your
doctor's permission before you try anything new or different. The Body
Wrap™ is no exception.
Q. What will
The Body Wrap™ do for my skin?
A. Our patrons
report that their skin appears smoother and tighter after wrapping.
In fact, we have many patrons who do not need to lose inches but
need skin tightening because of weight loss or aging. Others are
wrapped to tighten skin that has loosened over the years.
Q. What will
The Body Wrap™ do for cellulite?
A. As you
probably know, cellulite is water-logged fatty tissue. One of
the first things women with this problem report is a visible improvement
in the cellulite dimples and ripples within the first few wraps.
Results, however, can be seen from the very first wrap.
Q. What is
Body Sculpturing?
A. Body
Sculpturing is the art of wrapping and shaping in the same process.
When we wrap you, we not only improve overall size but contour
as well. We have found that the body functions better in an aesthetically
perfect shape.
Q. I have
large hips, & thighs. The rest of my body is okay. Can
you help me?
A. YES.
We can do a great deal for those problems because the body wrap
helps to bring the body into correct proportion. Many women with
heavy hips, thighs and legs (and men with heavy midsections) are
water retainers. The wrap itself may assist with this problem
but we can also provide you with good, general, non-medical things
to do at home on a day to day basis. We help you understand the
causes of water retention so YOU can control it.
Q. I am a
water retainer...what will The Body Wrap™ do for me?
A. Water
retainers usually have disproportionately large hips, thighs and/or
legs, etc. They also have a problem with bloating and swelling.
Studies show strenuous dieting seldom helps. The Body Wrap tends
to slenderize these problem areas. It is important to be wrapped
once or twice a week regularly during weight loss so that you
can keep your skin tight. The Body Wrap helps reduce swelling
and bloating and is vital in a program to control water retention.
Q. What about
problem spots?
A. Many patrons with
basically good bodies have problems in only a few areas. In such cases we wrap
the problem spots firmly to make these areas slimmer and the rest of the body
lightly to tighten skin and improve shape only. If we are only wrapping for loss
in a few spots, we do not guarantee a 10 inch minimum loss (6 inches for men) on
your first wrap, but we will take as much as possible off those spots.
Q. Will I
be in a state of fatigue or feel tired or depressed after my wrap?
A. NO. On
the contrary, you feel VERY good after a wrap. Most Patrons tell
us it leaves them feeling relaxed, energized, clean and very tight.
Q. How much
weight will I lose?
A. The Body
Wrap™ was designed to take off inches rather than pounds. If you
lose any weight it's a bonus.
Q. What are the guarantees?
A. You are guaranteed to lose 10-30
inches minimum (6 inch minimum for men) on your first wrap or that wrap is free.
The process takes approximately 2 to 2.5 hours and will visually slenderize and
contour your body.
There are, however, a few
exceptions:
1. A very trim patron, who only has three or four
places through the torso where they want to lose.
2. A tight-bodied or athletic type patron.
3. A patron who does not care to lose inches but is
working on skin tightening and cellulite.
4.
A patron who has been previously wrapped at any
Suddenly Slender, The Body Wrap™ location.
5. A pregnant woman(with doctors written permission
to be wrapped), who is not wrapped through
the abdomen or breasts.
We also guarantee that the inches will not return if
you don't gain weight and get in once in awhile for a maintenance wrap. The need
for a maintenance wrap may vary depending on
age, lifestyle and how your body reacts. The amount you lose may vary according
to body composition, size and other factors.
Before your first wrap your wrap
technician will discuss with you whether or not you qualify for the minimum inch
loss guarantee.
Q. Why do I need
maintenance wraps and how often do I need one.
A. Because the Metabolic
waste, chemicals, stress, medication and pollution in our environment that
overload body systems, causing water retention and soft, spongy,
cellulite-ridden tissue are still present in our environments, maintenance wraps
should be done every one to two months, depending on the person's age,
lifestyle and how the body reacts. Many patrons will come back in for
their maintenance wrap when they notice the apperance of cellulite returning.
Remember if you do not come back in for the maintenance wraps your guarantee
that the inches will not return is void.
