The method originated in Italy and is based on compressive microvibration, known as CMV technology. In practice, a handpiece with 55 silicone spheres mounted on rotating axes moves across the skin, with each sphere simultaneously compressing the tissue and vibrating at a set frequency.
Endospheres treatment based on CMV technology
The spheres work on two levels at the same time. Compression moves fluids toward the lymph nodes and loosens dense bands of connective tissue, while vibration reaches layers that cannot be accessed manually without considerable pain. The handpiece does not suction the skin, so bruises are not left on the body.
What problems can this treatment address?
Skin with cellulite
Lumps on the thighs and buttocks can be visible not only when the skin is pinched but also while standing in daylight. The treatment helps loosen fibrous tissue that pulls the skin downward and creates characteristic dimples.
Lymphatic stagnation and swelling
By the end of the day, the ankles may lose their definition and sock marks can remain for hours. Working with the handpiece accelerates lymphatic drainage, and the circumference of the leg may decrease during the session, similarly to classic lymphatic drainage massage, but at a deeper level.
Visible stretch marks
Fresh red and pink stretch marks respond best because fibroblasts are still active in these areas. Older white scars can be made shallower and more even in colour, although they will not disappear completely.
Loss of skin firmness
After pregnancy, weight loss, or after the age of forty, the skin on the inner thighs and arms may no longer return to its previous shape. Rhythmic mechanical stimulation encourages collagen production, helping the skin become denser.
Localised excess fat
Love handles, so-called saddlebags above the knees, and folds around the waist. Exercise and diet cannot target these areas selectively, while Endospheres works exactly where the handpiece is applied, which is why it fits well into a treatment plan with anti-cellulite massage.
Heavy, tired legs
Eight hours at a desk or twelve hours on your feet can end the same way: throbbing calves and the feeling that your legs are made of lead. A session can bring relief the same evening.
How compressive microvibration works
The therapist moves the handpiece along the lymphatic vessels, always toward the lymph nodes. The spheres apply pressure to the tissue point by point, one after another, creating a wave that pushes accumulated fluids and breaks down adhesions between collagen fibres. The vibration warms the tissue from within, dilates capillaries and increases oxygen supply to fat cells, making it easier for them to release stored triglycerides. The same stimulus reaches fibroblasts, which begin producing new collagen and elastin, and after several weeks the skin becomes denser and more elastic.
How to prepare for the treatment
- Drink at least one litre of water during the day before your appointment and a glass immediately before the session, as hydrated tissue conducts vibration better.
- Eat a light meal about two hours beforehand; do not arrive on a full stomach or completely fasting.
- Avoid applying body lotion or oil on the morning of your appointment.
- Bring comfortable underwear and loose trousers for the journey home.
How many sessions are needed and how long do the results last?
At the salon, you can book a 30-minute session for one area, a 45-minute session for two adjacent areas, or a 60-minute session for the entire legs together with the buttocks and abdomen. A complete cellulite treatment course usually consists of 10 to 12 sessions twice a week, while 8 sessions are often sufficient for swelling. Results after the full course usually last from four to six months, and one maintenance visit per month helps prolong them. Clients who visit regularly often add facial massage to their plan to support circulation in the upper part of the body as well.
Recommendations after the session
- Drink an additional one and a half litres of water over the next 24 hours to help the released fluids leave the body.
- Avoid alcohol and very salty foods on the same day.
- Choose a 20-minute walk or a light bike ride instead of an intensive strength workout.
- Leave the sauna and hot bath until the following day.
On a day off from Endospheres, relax tense back and neck muscles with a classic massage, as lying in one position for an hour can sometimes cause discomfort.
