I have never heard of this. Think it's time to wander over to Google to get a more in depth understanding of how to work out my skin.0 -
:huh: It's called exfoliation and I do that every time I shower. :glasses:0

Its also very good for your heart ...
And it does need to be a dry brush on dry skin...before the shower/bath.
What does it do for your heart?0 -

My skin gets the Insanity routine. I used to work in the skincare industry so I'm a bit of a princess when it comes to that. My skin workout routine:
AM and PM
Body Brush with Elemis brush
Use Salux Cloth with homemade soap
Use homemade body lotion during the day (with vitamin c added) or homemade body butter at night
Wax/Epilate if needed
On my rest days (like today)
Take a hot epsom salt, milk, and lavender flower bath
Use homemade scrub
Use homemade mud mask for 15 minutes
Use homemade body butter
Would love some of your recipesmay have to look into some of this!!

I do drybrushing about 4 days a week. I swear it has helped with cellulite. Not a miracle or anything, but a noticeable difference. I've read that it's good for your lymphatic system too, but that could be total bro-science/Yahoo! Nonsense.0

i used to practice dry-brushing, but have found significantly better results with these special fish.
they just love dead skin, nom nom nom!0 -
I've done the brushing for OT therapy for kids with sensory issues but have never tried it on myself. It does make sense though!
Maybe will have to try it out soon!

It doesn't help with cellulite because cellulite is well below the skin and caused by connective tissue and pockets of fat between that connective tissue. Nothing is going to change the way the skin is connected. The only thing that works for cellulite is body fat reduction.
Dry brushing is great for removing excess dead skin cells, and it feels good. A loofah in the shower or a scrub brush in the shower, or even a rough wash cloth, will have the same effect. Shaving will remove the dead skin cells as well, but it doesn't have that "feel good" effect that brushing the body has.
My skin routine is pretty lame. Dial antibacterial in the shower, razor shave the legs, and sunscreen, sunscreen, and sunscreen. The face gets the added benefit of weekly exfoliation, some toner and some moisturizer before bed.0 -
I started doing it a month or two ago though I don't remember every day. I don't know about the health benefits but I am just looking for the skin benefits - it only takes a few minutes.0

I have heard of it but never done it consistantly, it is suppose to help kids with processing disorders also
And here's where it clears the rails, dives over the embankment, and plunges into the ocean depths
Wheeze laugh. Dittoes!0 -

So apparently it can get to the parts I like more attention paid to that masseuse don't typically do. I always said during breastfeeding "man I gotta find a spa that does breast massage", to which he always replied if you get that do put me down for a d*ck massage. (quack!)
but judging by the photos it depends who you go to cause you might end up getting the kind of massages that are easier and more appropriately obtained at home. This is like a man manual to intercourse. All roads lead to rome.0
