Vitality's Steam Body Capsules is an all natural holistic approach to detoxification and cellulite reduction.  Circulation & general health is improved, muscle tension is released, skin is nourished and your body is able to detoxify itself with a clear centered spirit

Effects of Steam: 

The Wrap Process

A series of 3 to 6 Steam Body Capsules are recommended, with 4 to 7 days between each wrap. If a client is overweight and on a weight loss program, a wrap is suggested for each 5 to 10 pounds lost.

• Step One: Caution. You should not have steam treatments if you have any of the following conditions: kidney malfunction, cardiac or arterial diseases, severe high blood pressure, acute infection or inflammation of any kind.  Women should avoid steam treatments just prior to or during menstruation or menopausal symptoms.  Also avoid if pregnant or sensitive to high heat temperatures. 
  
• Step Two: Preparation. The client will come to the wrap appointment freshly bathed, without any lotions or perfumes on the body. The legs should be shaved the night before the wrap, rather than the same day. Client will bring a small bikini swimsuit or bikini panties and bra, which they will change into once inside a private treatment room.
• Step Three: Skin Exfoliation. The skin is exfoliated with a natural bristle dry body brush before any oil or gel is applied, dead skin cells are removed, capillaries are dilated to help nutrients get to the cells, and the metabolism of the skin is activated. This increases the detoxification process obtained through the wrap.
• Step Four: Application of SeaGel.  A Seaweed formulated body wrap gel is topically applied. It is absorbed into the cell region and stimulates circulation while promoting tissue cleansing. All ingredients are natural and safe. Contains kelp for metabolic stimulation and nutrient-rich Klamath Blue-Green Algae to hydrate and detoxify. The active moisturizer base includes Willow Bark Extract, Aloe Vera Oil, Vitamin E, and Rose Hip Seed Oil.  There will be a normal pink tone to the skin as circulation is increased. The gel is not applied to the face or breasts.  Avoid seaweed treatments if you are allergic to iodine; have hyperthyroidism, high blood pressure, varicose veins, or attacks of rheumatism. 
• Step Five: Steam Capsule.  A Specially designed tent is fastened to the treatment table to trap in the moist heat creating a "sweat lodge" effect while your arms and legs can move freely for comfort.  Fat storage houses (cell chambers) are reduced, allowing the body’s own cleansing process to take over and eliminate excess fluids and waste materials from the body through perspiration. 
  
• Step Six: Relaxation. The client is able to relax and enjoy a scalp or facial massage for approximately 15-20 minutes, while the SeaGel and steam are put to work. The client should get hot enough to sweat out toxins however, cool towels are placed on forehead and around the neck to prevent the body from overheating. 
  
• Step Seven: Complete the Treatment. The excess SeaGel is removed with warm moist towels and stimulating contour cream is massaged into the skin. Client should avoid showering for several hours after the treatment, as the cream will continue to produce results. Many clients report a pleasant feeling of weightlessness and supple skin following the wrap. Because the skin-tightening results are dependent on the body’s own cleansing function, inch loss won’t return as liquids are taken into the body. In fact, the client should drink water immediately following the wrap to help flush out any released toxins or waste.

At Home Care

The detoxifying results achieved through a Steam Body Capsule can be maximized with an at home detox regimen. The Vital Elements Detox Home Care Kit can be purchased for use between wraps when done in a series, increasing future inch loss results, or after a single wrap to prolong the circulation and cleansing process. The Kit contains natural products including:

• TOTAL TEA Detoxifier, a combination of pure, natural herbs that are taken in a delicious citrus blended cup of tea to break down cellulite, help stimulate waste elimination and strengthen the eliminatory system. It will also help to appease the appetite naturally.
• STIMULATING CONTOUR CREME Anti-Cellulite Lotion, used topically after bath or shower on the areas that are being treated for cellulite and inch loss. Contour Creme helps to promote the concentration of active ingredients on the skin in order to continue circulation and cleansing, while tightening and toning the skin.
• Loofah Brushing is done to stimulate circulation and remove dead cells on the skin surface. Friction on the sponge causes stimulation without damage to the skin. On a daily basis and each time you shower, rub in circular motions upward from the knee to the waist. On other parts of the body, always brush toward the heart.

In addition to the Home Care Kit, an anti-cellulite diet is important in the prevention of future cellulite accumulation. Avoid sodium, alcohol, preserved foods, caffeine, nicotine, and cut down on animal fats (red meats and dairy products). Substitute these things with fiber and complex carbohydrates, as they digest easily and are quickly assimilated. Drink at least 8-10 glasses of distilled water daily.

Exercise 4-5 times each week to stimulate lymph movement and to maintain proper circulation in problem areas.

Steam Body Capsules are extremely helpful in the elimination of trapped wastes and toxins. Detoxification works internally, helping to maximize inch loss through body cleansing and the rejuvenation of all body systems. Detoxification is recommended 3-4 times per year for overall health of the body.
