Just Wondering If Anyone Has Tried Anything like This

Hello again moms. I need some information if anyone can help. I have a friend who wants to try these natural herbal body wraps that claim to help loose 2- 14 inches as well as detoxify the body, and improve skin (smooth out cellulit, protect from UV rays ect..). The claim is that all the ingrediants used are one hundred percent natural, and they offer a 100% money back garuntee if for some reason it doesn't work. As you can imagine this is not a cheap product. I told her that before she ordered I would ask all my moms and see if others have had success with something like this. I would hate to see her spend her money on something that might be a hoax. Of course we checked and they are under the BBB. I guess I'm just skeptical that something like this works with such amazingly quick results. Any information you gals have would be great!

I had to gone a place that did them! YES it worked..took off inches, however ...not a permanent fix. It was more like a novelty thing for my girlfiends and I..fun to try. Good luck..not harmful either!

Just remember that it's all temporary. The results you see are topical, there is no way a product will absorb through your skin and miraculously remove cellulite, fat, etc. There is also no reason to 'detoxify' your body. Your body is designed to detoxify through your kidneys, liver, intestines and sweat glands. Cellulite is actually fat cells that are bulging out because the bands that hold them to your skin are uneven. You can lose weight and tone up your body, but a wrap won't solve the issue. That's not to say that your skin can't use moisturizing and exfoliating, and who doesn't love to be pampered, right? ...but remember...temporary!

Again...from a medical standpoint, detox is NOT necessary. Feed your body right, keep your fluids intact, your body will sweat out the impurities and filter the rest...sometimes even before it enters your body. Like I said, pampering is great for your mind, "DETOX" is a myth!

Hello L.,
As we ladies are all beautifully different in shape and size, the results will vary. This will not be an overnight loss, please have your friend to look at the fine print for the guarantee. I would like to share the Ardyss International story / solution (www.ardysslife.com/77851201). These are all natural products and patented garments that are designed to assist in losing inches. There are also natural wrap products available as well (probably much lower than your friend's cost, if she would be interested.) I know that the garment works as long as you wear it (it is not an overnight process of dropping inches). My friend has lost 2 inches from her was in a months time. When you put on the garment you will drop inches (2 - 3 dress sizes) but then you will begin to lose those inches. There is a 40% discount for all MammaSource mothers (ask me how? ____@____.com).

I have tried it and I LOVED It! I have been trying to find another place because it has been so long since I've done that and I just had a baby 5 months ago. My sister got me a giftcard to this place that was supposed to have it but they don't do it anymore. Please let me know where your friend goes. I thought it was great for skin firming and that's what I want to use it for now, and YES, it would be perfect if you had a dress to wear to a special event and it got a little snug then you could do this and it would fit better instantly!

My cousin did one of the detox wraps at a spa and she said it made her feel wonderful she had been really sick with the flu and it really did make her feel better. I didn't ask her if the results were short term or lasted or not. We DO need to Detox our body yes it is supposed to do that on it's own but think about all of the BAD things we put into our body, not only with the foods we eat but medications and the air we breath. We are not made to get rid of these things. We need natural help at times to Detox. I use Arbonne's Detox products regularly and I can feel the difference. I would be happy to tell you more but I would rather do that privately. Good Luck to your friend.

I have tried them twice with no success. Actually I gained inches rather than loose them. They claimed it was because I had too many toxins in my body. I would say save your money!!!
