The next step would be to apply the wrap mixture to your body targeting the most cellulite ridden areas which is usually the mid section of your body. Your body will be firmly but not tightly wrap with the towels, cotton linens or plastic.
The therapist will ask you to lie down on a bed and relax for 45 minutes to 1 hour. When the time is up, she will unwrap the towels and rinse off the mixture gently using warm water.
