Allura Lipo Cavitation and Thermolipolysis

I'm an athletic person so getting rid of fats is easy. Well that was before when I was younger. Now at 42, losing weight doesn't happen overnight because metabolism isn't cooperating as it used to.

It's good that my wife Joy, of Occasions of Joy, nudged me into going with her at Allura Body Contour & Slimming Center. At ALLURA you can find the latest machines that will help you achieve the weight you've been hitting.

ALLURA was conceptualized through the joint effort of a group of elite professionals who have pooled their individual knowledge, expertise and extensive experience of almost two (2) decades in the beauty enhancement and slimming industry. These doctors are not just life savers, but more importantly are life-shapers! While browsing the net about Allura, I read about testimonials of happy clients, both private citizen and celebrities.

It's nice to know that behind the workforce of ALLURA are well trained professionals in various aspects of medical and allied medical services like doctors, licensed nurses and physical therapist.

If you think that looking great is that expensive, I think you haven't been at ALLURA.  They are affordable especially when  they give special promotions like Buy One Take One. My wife's friend, Maria and her husband enrolled at Allura for Lipo Cavitation and Thermolipolysis after watching my wife's video in Facebook.

Thermo-lipolysis is one of the famous offerings of ALLURA as it helps our clients reduce weight easily and instantly. It uses cutting-edge thermal heat and infrared technology to burn as much as 900 calories per treatment of 30 minutes. You are put inside a hi-tech "capsule," so you can literally lose weight equivalent to 3-7 km. energy expenditure of running while lying down.  It actually burns as much as 900 calories per session. More than that, it increases the metabolism, reduces water retention and stimulates body circulation.

While Lipo Cavitation is another popular demand from ALLURA which effortlessly gets rid of the cellulite and local fat tissues safely. It is effective, extremely safe, painless and mild with its special cooling method, no bandage, no bruising, no bleeding and no pain. It employs ultra-sound technology which causes bursting (implosion) of the fat cells of the area being treated.

To think that my family celebrated a couple of birthdays in Februray and food reviews and feature I still lost 3lbs after 6 sessions!

FOREVER STRONG WELLNESS: AN INTENSIVE, HOLISTIC, AND PERSONALIZED WAY TO LOSING WEIGHT AND GETTING HEALTHY

A lot of people equate losing weight with being healthy. While it is true that shedding excess pounds is good for everyone, it isn’t the only marker of good health. Weight loss is just one of the results of an effective holistic program. At Forever Strong Wellness Center, the goal is holistic health. Weight loss is not the end all, it is just the beginning. This is what the 6-Week Health Overhaul Program is about.
 
The 6-Week Health Overhaul Program is based on 3 pillars: education, natural remedies and holistic approach. These 3 pillars provide the backbone to sustainable weight loss, strong physique, and a healthy lifestyle. The program consists of 6 strategies that synergistically work
together to bring about health transformation.
 
Intensive, holistic, and personalized, this program is perfect for anyone who wants to be healthy, whether you’re someone who has an illness like hypertension or diabetes, or you’re simply feeling like age is catching up with you.
 
6 steps for 6 weeks
 
There are 6 steps to the program. Starting with a health assessment, where testing and evaluation are done to determine your body composition, resting metabolic rate, cardiovascular
fitness, flexibility, muscular strength, postural deviations, and risk factors for cardiovascular diseases. Certainly, these steps entail a lot of data collection. However, this step is crucial to develop baseline information as it is used to guide the design of your whole program.
 
 

 
The second step is metabolic typing, which provides information on your nutritional needs and as a result addresses issues like food cravings, hunger, low energy, weight gain, and metabolic disorders.
 
The third step is nutritional counselling, where food types and eating habits are learned to help you not just lose weight and sustain ideal weight, but also prevent the development of cardiovascular diseases.
 
The fourth step is Personal Training designed especially for you. You’ll be provided a personal trainer and with the right kind of exercise, you will develop a strong physique; increase your metabolism; strengthen your immune system; and enhance your body’s ability to fight
 
 
 
 
 
The fifth step entails detoxification. This step involves an infrared sauna to not just relax your muscles but more importantly to also flush away toxins and cleanse the body.
 

 
The sixth and final step involves Transdermal Magnesium Therapy (TMT). TMT is meant to provide an effective means to infuse magnesium into body effectively. Incidentally, the lack or deficiency in magnesium has been proven to lead to type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart disease.
 
After the 6-Week Health Overhaul Program, expect to see changes in your body and health. You will gain energy, strengthen your immune system, get rid of body aches and pains, and lose weight, of course. The 6-Week Health Overhaul Program may bring about all these benefits, but you don’t have to stop after 6 weeks. Some people go for a back-to-back to help them address a serious health concern.
 
 
Essential oil therapies
 
Apart from the 6-Week Health Overhaul Program, Forever Strong Wellness Center also offers essential oil therapies. These therapies are targeted to provide relief from back aches and pain, including joints and muscle discomfort.  
 
 
The Raindrop Therapy is focused on the spine and uses 9 different essential oils. The goal is to relax the spinal nerves and to provide antioxidant protection against the possible presence of microbes that lay dormant in the spine.
 

 The Vita Flex Technique, on the other hand, is a therapeutic technique adapted from Oriental acupuncture, acupressure, and reflexology made more effective with the use of essential oils. It is a foot and hand massage but it rejuvenates the whole body.
 
And then there is the Ortho Ease Massage, which targets deep tissues in localized areas of the body to relieve pain and discomfort. It soothes muscle aches, sprains, and minor swelling. For middle-age adults, the programs at Forever Strong Wellness Center will provide the foundation of health so you can maintain your new weight, avoid premature aging, strengthen your immune system, get rid of body aches and pains, and gain energy. Ms. Owen believes that a holistic approach is what it takes to become healthy and strong. Thus, the issue with type 2 diabetes and hypertension, which most middle-age adults are predisposed to, can be prevented.
 
Testimony from Ging Carsi-Cruz, 46 years old:
 
My sister Carla Martinez was the person who introduced me to Lanie as she felt that I needed o get myself into some sort of a weight loss program since I have been overweight for the past 14 years. This was ever since I gave birth to my first son. My weight just kept accumulating through the years despite my efforts of dieting, fasting and exercising. After 6 weeks, I lost 18 pounds. I exceeded the goal far beyond my expectations. In fact, in six months, I got to a dress size and weight that I never deemed achievable! I dropped 8 dress sizes down and lost close to 50 lbs. The complete 6-Week Health Overhaul program including magnesium therapy, infrared sauna, exercise, eating guidelines and nutritional counseling helped me to achieve my initial target of losing 38 lbs. and 5 inches off my belly. What impressed me most was in 2 months, I was able to lay off my heart medication which the doctors said I had to take for life since I have a condition called HOCM. Somehow reaching 138 lbs. was not enough for me but I was struggling to lose a little bit more. With her help, I was able to cut through the plateau and started losing more weight, a pound at a time. The Total Body Detox Program helped me get down to my final weight of 124 lbs. I have never felt healthier, stronger, and younger in my life. My overall health has improved. My cholesterol, blood pressure, and blood glucose have normalized and have remained stable. Her close monitoring of me has truly proven the success of the program. I truly appreciate the one-on-one coaching that she did to attain my overall wellness goal. She is an EXCELLENT LIFE COACH! Thanks Lanie . . . I could never have gotten this far
without you!
 

According to Lanie Owen, owner of Forever Strong Wellness, following the 3 pillars namely, education, natural remedies, and holistic approach, a person can achieve a total health transformation. Ms. Owen holds a Bachelor of Science in Health and Wellness and Master of Science in Health Education. She is also a Certified Personal Trainer and a Certified Health Coach. She practiced in the U.S. for over a decade before moving to the Philippines over a year
ago.

Hepamin OD for Liver Protection

Silymarin, which is derived from the milk thistle plant renowned for its protective effects on the liver way back during the time of the ancient Greeks, is a powerful antioxidant that gets rid of cell-damaging free radicals.

Liver cells are the only cells that can metabolize alcohol which is why it is the organ that gets overworked with excessive alcohol consumption. The liver normally takes fatty acids as its fuel and sends off the excess to other tissues of the body as triglycerides. But with the presence of alcohol, the liver is forced to metabolize the alcohol first causing fatty acids and other toxins to accumulate, which would eventually lead to the formation of cirrhosis. Silymarin can help reduce fatty infiltrations from toxins and alcohol and it also aids in the regeneration of damaged liver cells.

One such silymarin food supplement available in the Philippine market is the Hepamin OD distributed by Trianon International. Containing 300 mg silimaryn per capsule, it is conveniently taken just once daily for optimal liver protection, unlike most supplements which have to be taken two to three times daily.


Hepamin OD, P24.50/capsule; P735.00/box


Studies have shown that silymarin is effective in improving the survival of patients with severe fatty liver disease and/or liver cirrhosis. One study subjected 170 patients to a thrice a day 140 mg silymarin regimen for 41 months. The study showed that those who received silymarin supplementation had a 58 percent 4-year survival rate while the placebo group only had 39 percent. This improvement in survival rates is even more apparent among those who had alcoholic cirrhosis. Silymarin moreover did not present any form of side effect. This particular study attests to the benefit and safety of the supplement for long-term treatments especially for alcoholic patients.
