Hey ladies, are there any massage therapists here who do manual anti-cellulite massage or use machines for it, or anything like that? (I'm not sure of the correct term) Or maybe you've had such massages and know about them. Here's my situation: Last winter, I started using a wooden roller massager (marketed for cellulite). The instructions didn't specify how often per week or how long the breaks should be. So, in desperation, I started doing it every day – on my stomach, legs, and sides. Gradually, I worked up to 40 minutes daily. The cellulite seemed to be reducing, and after three months, I noticed I was also losing weight. I was initially happy to lose 5 extra pounds. But after 5 months, those 5 pounds were gone, and the weight kept dropping. When I realized I couldn't control the weight loss anymore, I got scared, thinking I'd done something wrong. My question is: Could I have massaged myself so much that my muscles started to atrophy? Or did I start losing fat that I actually needed? (I'm not sure how to phrase it, but something along those lines). Later, I read that any massage needs breaks, which I didn't take. I don't have any pain; if I had damaged my muscles, I think it would hurt. Has anyone had experience with this type of massage tool, or can any massage therapists who understand how this works offer some advice? 🙏
