FAQ FIT BODY WRAP
Is FIT Bodywrap safe to use with implants? What about other conditions?
There is no research indicating that the infrared heat and temperatures generated by the FIT Bodywrap would cause changes in implants, although saline implants may be warmed by the heat. However, the FIT Bodywrap has a special control allowing you to deactivate the breast area of the wrap if you prefer. We strongly recommend that you check with your physician before starting FIT Bodywrap sessions. FIT Bodywrap may be contraindicated if you have any chronic conditions, diseases, pins, rods or artificial joints, or if you are pregnant.
How many calories can be burned in a session?
The number of calories burned in a session is dependent on a number of factors and can vary from session to session. These include:
Your body type and metabolism.
How conditioned you are to sweat.
Your body’s current hydration status.
How/what you’ve recently eaten.
Adequate application of the Fit Booster spray.
And many more.
Also remember that a FIT Bodywrap session can elevate your metabolism for many hours after the session ends, so the increased caloric consumption can continue for many hours as well.
How does someone get the most out of their FIT Bodywrap session?
It is recommended the customer drink water before during and after their session to help the body flush itself of fats and toxins. Additionally, ensuring use of the FIT Booster Spray and FIT Coat will allow for more significant session results.
Q: What Is Infrared?
A: Infrared is the band of light we perceive as heat. We cannot see this band of light with the naked eye, but we can feel this type of light in the form of heat. Our sun produces most of its energy output in the infrared segment of the spectrum. Infrared rays heat your body without having to heat the air in-between, through a process called conversion.
The infrared is divided into 3 segments by wavelengths, measured in microns; 0.76~1.5 microns-near;1.5~5.6 microns-middle;5.6~1000 microns-far infrared. Among these segments, only far infrared penetrates organic substances such as the human body two to three inches so that the warming effect is very uniform.
Q: Will changing dietary and health habits improve results from the FIt Body Wrap Far Infrared sessions?
A: Of course any diet and lifestyle improvement will be of benefit whether or not people decide to undertake a Fit Body Wrap program. However, if a client has made the commitment to the Fit Body Wrap program then more value will be derived from that commitment if other lifestyle improvements are also undertaken.
Q: Should I drink water before or after a session?
A: It is recommended that drinking room temperature water before, during and after a session allows the body to stay hydrated and replaces body fluids that have been sweated out during the session.
