The Ionithermie Body Treatments (Inch Loss)
THE LOW DOWN
Ionithermie offers tried and tested slimming / inch loss treatments with guaranteed results to reduce the appearance of cellulite, slim, firm and tone the body.
There is a choice of 5 body treatments, each targeting a specific problem area:

- 3. Tummy Trim
- 4. Bust Lift (that also targets the arms)
- 5. Arm & Tummy treatment
THE INCH BY INCH PROCESS
Treatment procedure is as follows:
- We measure various points around your body prior to the treatment so that we can check your inch loss result at the end.
- Then your skin is prepped with a body toner (optional exfoliation and massage is also available the rev up your circulatory systems)
- Next Ionithermie’s special thermal clay and algae masque is applied to the specific areas you want to treat (determined by the type of treatment you are having)
- Electric toning pads are then positioned over specific muscles and the Ionithermie machine is turned on for 30 minutes
- While the machine is running we perform a relaxing scalp massage
- At the end of the treatment the mask peels away leaving no trace (so no shower is required)
- We then re-measure to get your new inch loss results
THE TECHY PART
The Ionithermie machine sends 2 types of electrical stimuli through the thermal clay while you are relaxing on the treatment couch. Actions are:
Ionisation (Galvanic stimulation)
- Pushes the slimming and firming active ingredients deep into the skin for excellent results
- Stimulates lymphatic circulation to drain excess water and detoxify the skin
Stimulation
- Contract the muscles for increased tone and firmness
- Increases blood circulation that boosts your metabolism
- Also has an effect on lymphatic system to drain water and toxins
WHAT ARE THE RESULTS?
Results are visible after just one session, although for best results we recommend a course of 5 to 6 treatments within three weeks (minimum 24 hours gap between each treatment)
After one treatment
Visible improvements to skin texture, tone colour and shape, inch loss has also been reported
After a course of 6 treatments (recommended twice a week)
- Visibly reduced cellulite – long term
- A loss of between 1 to 8 inches per treatment
- Toned and firmer skin
- Contoured silhouette
WHAT DO I FEEL?
During the treatment
Ionithermie is a pain-free treatment with each electrical stimuli level adapted for your comfort:
Ionisation - gives a tingly sensation on the skin (continuous)
Stimulation – contracts your muscles, just like natural exercise (3 seconds on, 3 seconds off)
After the treatment
Just one treatment is a great confidence booster! You feel and leave the salon with spring in your step. Your skin will be smoother, and more toned with water retention reduced so your jeans may feel looser.
