Dry skin brushing is a perfect way to advance the detox elimination process. It's easy, quick and it has amazing benefits. One of the benefits on why I started doing it; it helps eliminate cellulite.... yup! You heard that right, ladies. It stimulates the lymphatic system (considered to be one of the best natural lymphatic cleansers available) and also stimulates circulation.
I've been dry skin brushing for over a year now and I can definitely see the difference, my skin is really soft (my husband is always commenting on it) and I don't require as much lotion as I used to use. I've also heard that eventually, no lotion at all will be needed. I have especially noticed it now during this time of the year, this is the time when my skin gets drier and it doesn't feel dry at all!
The process only takes about 5 minutes, the first time you do it may take about 10 minutes.
1. Start from your feet and move upwards in small circular motions towards your heart (It is more beneficial to brush from the extremities towards the core of the body).
2. Do your upper body, raise one arm up and do small circular motions towards your armpit.
3. Last do the abdomen. Move your brush from left to right gently massaging your colon.
Brush gently, especially over the sensitive areas.
Once you're done take a HOT/COLD shower to complete the detox process.
