  • You must take care that the wrap is neither too tight nor too loose. It should allow easy breathing and should not cut away the blood circulation but should be tight enough to cause compression.
  • Instead of whole body wrap, you can also do part by part wrap each day. For instance, you can do legs and lower body one day, stomach another day and chest and neck the third day. This becomes more comfortable.

Step 3: Sweat it out

Now you need to get warm and cozy by wrapping yourself in a blanket or a heating pad so that sufficient sweat oozes out of your body.

  • This should be at least for 30 to 45 minutes though you get better results if done for an hour.
  • You can remove the blanket or heating pad after about 40 minutes
  • Just relax the rest 20 minutes by reading a book, listening to some music or even doing some light exercises to enhance the sweating.

Step 4: Unwrap your body

After about an hour, you can remove the bandages slowly and carefully.

  • Next, take a shower to cleanse yourself
  • Remove any extra gunk
  • Do not use soap on the body or do any other thing to the area which was wrapped.
