Overweight, obesity and cellulitis are considered as a serious health and cosmetic problem, with serious consequences on the quality of life. Physical medicine and rehabilitation can be useful in the process of prevention and rehabilitation of these patients, applying different physical modalities. In the complex prevention and rehabilitation algorithm, we include: physical activities and sports; exercises (analytic exercises for abdominal belt, for gluteal and femoral muscles); ultrasound-cavitation and phonophoresis with anticellulite gels; endermology (LPG technology); functional electrical stimulations; radio-frequency, VelaShape; diet and patient education. We applied complex prevention and rehabilitation algorithms using a synergic combination of different physical factors: augmentation of the regular physical activity, exercises, one soft-tissue technique (lymphopressotherapy or post-isometric relaxation); two preformed modalities; one cryo or thermo-agent. We present series of clinical cases suffering from overweight and cellulite; after application of a rehabilitation complex. Our results included: amelioration of the skin elasticity and of the “orange peel”; decrease of the body-mass index, reduction of the waist circumference). We propose a hypothesis of the mechanisms of action of physical modalities on overweight, obesity and cellulitis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
