Brought back from Brazil and adapted by professional masseuse Véronique Grassaud, the Turbine massage it has many benefits for the body. Laure Carpentier, who practices this technique in her beauty and well-being space Le Studio 118, located in the 16th arrondissement of Paris, explains to to miss the particularities of this protocol, its effects on the body and the contraindications to keep in mind before making an appointment.
What is the Turbinada massage?
” The Turbinada massage is a vigorous manual technique that combines different maneuvers to reactivate blood circulation, eliminate water blocked in the tissues and dissolve cellulite », explains Laure Carpentier. Her action is completed by the use of a roller, the Slimroll, which is ” composed of small suction cups and medical silicone tips that will stimulate the skin and stimulate the entire circulatory system “.
This accessory, with its fake air of a rolling pin, is in fact inspired by two well-being rituals of Chinese medicine, the Cupping therapy (or “Hijama”) and acupressure, and was developed by Véronique Grassaud to offer a unique experience during the session.
What are the benefits of Turbinada massage?
According to Laure Carpentier, the benefits of the Turbinada massage are numerous:
It is a complete treatment that acts at different levels and has immediate effects on blood and lymphatic circulation, as well as on muscle fatigue, because better oxygenation of the muscles helps to relieve cramps and restore tone.. Also for this reason it is particularly appreciated by sportsmen!
During the sessions, the benefits of the remodeling maneuvers are also noticeable on the silhouette : the skin is firmer, cellulite is less visible, the fat deposits located on the hips and buttocks have lost volume and the legs are lighter. Interesting results for those who would like to fit more easily into their jeans (although buying a size up is also a solution!).
As a reminder, the term “cellulite” refers to the uneven appearance that the skin can have on certain areas such as the buttocks, hips and upper thighs, mainly in women, regardless of weight, but also in men. It is a physiological phenomenon which has no repercussions on health but which can sometimes be painful to the touch and/or be a source of complexes largely inculcated by society (as early as the 1930s the French women’s press presented cellulite as a “problem” to eliminate). It’s up to everyone to see where they stand in the face of “orange peel skin”.
To take advantage of the virtues of the Turbinada massage, the professional recommends starting with a treatment of five or six close sessions, to activate the body, then having a maintenance session once a month. Depending on the institutes and professionals, the price of a 1-hour session varies between €90 and €150. You can also buy the Slimroll (€79) to prolong the benefits of the treatment at home.
What are the contraindications to the Turbinada massage?
In some cases the Turbinada massage is not recommended, especially if you suffer from varicose veins, cardiovascular problems, if you have a pacemaker or if you have cancer.
It’s also best to wait a bit before making an appointment if you’ve recently suffered a broken or torn muscle. What if we are pregnant? ” There are no contraindications during pregnancy unless advised by your doctor. “, explains Laure Carpentier.
