Back and shoulder pain has numerous causes and can worsen over time. It is in the top 3 reasons for having time off work and GP consultation.

A sedentary lifestyle, stress, excess weight, bad posture at work and at home, standing or sitting all day in front of a computer are some of the contributors to back pain, tension headaches, shoulder and neck pain. So, without prompt treatment, the condition can worsen over time.

Medical endermologie mobilises your body’s tissues and stimulates circulatory exchanges to relieve tension, work out “knots” and reduce stiffness.

This process can also assist joint mobility, and reduce pain caused by inflammation of the joint.

Scars form when the deep, thick layer of skin is damaged.  The body forms new collagen fibers (a naturally occurring protein in the body) in response to the damage in order to repair itself.  Sometimes resulting in a scar.

The new scar tissue will have a different texture and quality than the surrounding tissue.

Beyond appearance, the scar can then create functional problems.  For example, limiting range of motion, causing pain, or interfering with how certain internal organs work.

Medical endermologie’s drainage and defibrosing properties allow even the most delicate of dermis scars and burn scars to be painlessly worked on at an early stage.

• Tissue mobilisation helps to eliminate waste by “draining” the tissue.
• If caught early enough, this prevents the formation of scar adherences because immature scars are more pliable and dynamic.
• Tissue stimulation encourages natural collagen and elastin production, which expedites the healing process.  This can ease pain, restore mobility and improve the appearance of the scar.

Medical endermologie works on all types of scars, on all ages of people, even the most delicate.

• Recent scars still showing signs of inflammation.
• Old scars.
• Surgical or traumatic scars.
• Burns, including after skin graft.
• Post-caesarean.
• Masecotmy.
• Scleroderma.

This process can also assist joint mobility, and reduce pain caused by inflammation of the joint.

Lymphedema is abnormal swelling that can develop in the arm, hand, breast, or torso as a side effect of breast cancer surgery and/or radiation therapy. It can appear in some people during the months or even years after treatment ends.

Lymph is a thin, clear fluid that circulates throughout the body to remove wastes, bacteria, and other substances from tissues. Edema is the buildup of excess fluid. So lymphedema occurs when too much lymph collects in any area of the body. If lymphedema develops in people who’ve been treated for breast cancer, it usually occurs in the arm and hand.  But sometimes it affects the breast, underarm, chest, trunk, and/or back.

Surgery and radiation can cut off or damage some of the nodes and vessels that lymph moves through. Over time, the flow of lymph can overwhelm the remaining pathways, resulting in a backup of fluid into the body’s tissues.

Alleviate the discomfort associated with painful swellings of the arms and legs and mobilise the tissue to reduce and flush excess fluid from the body.

For weight loss treatments, Endermologie is most effective when used in conjunction with a healthy balanced diet and a regular exercise programme.
