How is stomach massage burning my belly fat?

When stomach massage is performed, the microcirculation in the affected area is improved. This helps the metabolic process normalize and improve the smoothness and elasticity of the skin.

Stomach massage 101:

You can do self-massage anytime, but for best results aim for once or twice a day right after you wake up or in the evening always remembering to perform them either one hour before eating or two hours after.
 

1. Lying flat on your back, bend your knees so that your feet are flat on the floor and then pinch sections of your belly. Starting at top of your tummy, move clockwise around your tummy in a spiral so that you end right in the middle of your stomach. Repeat this movement adding pressure after one minute. Don’t worry if your skin starts to turn red- that is perfectly normal! Continue in the clockwise spiral pattern for a total of 5 minutes.
 

2. For the next technique you will need a jetted showerhead. While in the shower, use the jets to massage the front and sides of your stomach again, in a clockwise movement. Feel free to mix it up by using both cold and warm water. This exercise should also be done for a total of 5 minutes.

3. After this, move back to the same position that you were in for the first exercise. With your knees bent, grab a section of tummy flab and roll it in your hands. Work the skin as if you were squeezing a tube. Don’t massage too hard, you should not have any bruising. Finish this movement with gentle clockwise strokes.

4. Lastly, rub those same folds of tummy chub between the open palm of one hand and the balled up fist of the other.

5. Finish your stomach self-massage with more soothing clockwise strokes.
 

One sweet variation of the self-massage is to add a little honey. Using your hands, simply dab the honey onto your tummy. In addition to being a very tasty treat, this honey procedure can help reduce narrow your waist and give that skin a healthier glow.

Don’t forget- honey can be an allergen. Make sure to test a small patch of skin on your wrist with the honey before lathering it on. If after a half hour you do not notice any redness or irritation, feel free to massage it in.

Always remember that massage is just one of many strategies for weight loss. Make sure you keep proper nutrition and daily exercise a part of your regular routine. With a balanced lifestyle you will be sure to see results.
