Triactive
The most recent technology to reduce cellulite incorporates 3 different techniques and is promoted as TriActive LaserDermology. TriActive, so named for the 3 separate actions a technician applies, endeavors to smooth and tighten loose ripple skin by combining mechanical massage, localized cooling and deep laser stimulation. By integrating a low-energy laser, a skin-cooling mechanism, and suction massage to stimulate collagen, circulation, and lymphatic drainage, Tri-Active has been successfully diminishing the appearing of cellulite.
TriActive LaserDermology system is uniquely designed for the treatment of face and body. TriActive systems were originally developed years ago by laser scientists in Italy and are in use all over the world. Spas and other health specialists have used this innovative technology in thousands of individuals to reduce the appearance of cellulite and rejuvenate the skin. With just a series of procedures, TriActive LaserDermology’s goal is to enhance the appearance of skin, making it feel smoother and tighter.
90% of women have cellulite. The TriActive is specially designed to treat this common condition. Through a combination of massage therapy and recent developments in laser technology, TriActive LaserDermology provides your clients with a relaxing therapeutic message that stimulates the subcutaneous tissue and increases microcirculation. The laser is also associated with increasing microcirculation. The combined action helps the body’s own mechanisms eliminate toxins and impurities while improving the appearance of cellulite.
Clients are typically treated 2 times per week for a total of 10-16 treatments. Each treatment takes 30-45 minutes. Clients find the treatment experience relaxing and many will fall asleep. Once the initial treatments are completed, it is recommended that clients return for a monthly maintenance treatment.

- the most fundamental of human needs; in fact, touch is so important that if it is absent or withdrawn it can lead to all sorts of problems, ranging from failure to thrive in babies, irritability and bad behavior in children and depression in adults.
Ancient Egypt and Greece
The Ancient Egyptians used massage extensively for health and beauty that can be seen in tomb paintings dating back to 3,000BC.
Massage aids relaxation, directly affecting the body systems that govern heart rate, blood pressure, breathing and digestion. It lowers the amount of stress hormones circulating in a body improving your immune system.
Massage or stroking fingers or the gliding of an icyball or thermalball across the skin induces a feeling of comfort and well-being. Endorphins are released which play an important role in pain relief. Stronger, more vigorous massage helps stretch tense muscles and ease stiff joints.
