FEEL THE DRAIN
Massages are deeply pampering, yes, but depending on the technique, they can also be used to promote healing, and in the case of lymphatic drainage massage, even boost your weight loss goals. The massage is a gentle technique that stimulates your natural lymphatic system, which is responsible for maintaining fluid balance in the body. Therapists use rhythmic movements to get the lymph fluid flowing, shedding toxins to aid in digestion, boost the metabolism, and decrease puffiness and inflammation. After the massage, people leave the table feeling lighter, slimmer, and more energetic. It’s also a rockstar therapy for feeding the immune system and fighting off any lingering summer colds.
THE WEIGHT IS OVER
For more than two decades, Avanti Day Resort has been dedicated to pampering the women and men of New Jersey, blending a beauty salon, world-class spa, nail emporium, men’s retreat, café, and boutique, all under one rejuvenating roof in Manalapan. Just this year, the full-service health and beauty resort debuted a thrilling new weight loss center, offering innovative slimming solutions in a red carpet-worthy, white-glove package. For the center, Avanti teamed up with the fully accredited Compounding Pharmacy of America, 2024 “Doctor of the Year” Dmitry Zhukovski, DO, and weight loss coach Danielle Guralnik, to provide personalized coaching, mentorship, inspiration, motivation, grocery shopping, restaurant guidance, and serve as an empathetic ear (Danielle can share details from her own incredible weight loss journey, losing 100 lbs and keeping it off for 27 years). The center’s goal is to guide people along a path to losing weight, boosting confidence, and maintaining a better, happier quality of life.
MICRO MIRACLES
Cellulite is notoriously stubborn, plaguing nearly 90% of women and traditionally popping up in the hip, thigh, and butt areas. And most women can attest: no matter how many hours you sweat in the gym, cellulite likes to stick around, leading many to opt for surgical solutions to eliminate the lumps. Enter Endospheres Therapy: a noninvasive body treatment that combines advanced microvibration and microcompression tech to noticeably reduce cellulite and tighten the skin, sans surgery. The device uses low frequency sound waves that penetrate the deepest layers of skin, breaking down fat fibroblasts while accelerating lymphatic drainage. Each session only lasts between 30-60 minutes without any downtime. Bonus: it also spurs muscle toning and soothes inflammation.
