Do you find your arms “too big”? What if it was neither fat nor a lack of tone? This expert reveals the gesture to change their appearance in a few minutes
It is a complex shared by many men and many women. Remember having already pronounced at least once in front of the mirror: “I have big arms”,, Especially after 45 or 50 years. This can be the moment when the arms thicken and lack tone … So you prefer to hide them and presto, problem solved. But if, in reality, were they not big at all?
Indeed, Fleur Boschel, a specialist in lymphatic drainage, unveiled on Instagram a video that talks about itself. What you think is fat, the practitioner immediately recognizes him as water retention. In most cases, the so -called “thick” arms are not because of an excess fat mass. These are areas where the lymph circulates badly, especially with age or a sedentary life. The lymph, this transparent liquid responsible for evacuating toxins, has no heart to circulate it, unlike blood. It depends entirely on movement, breathing, and sometimes a manual little help. Result: when it stagnates, swelling appear, especially at the arms, under the armpits and around the upper back. What can give this aspect to the arms is therefore not necessarily linked to food, nor to lack of sport, but to poor lymphatic circulation. And this phenomenon can increase with hormonal changes (menopause, weight variations, etc.), but also because of harmless habits: stay too long, wear tight clothes in the arms …
But the good news is that there is a quick and simple way to relaunch this famous circulation and visibly unclog the area. Some women note the difference after a single lymphatic drainage session: visibly more refined arms, a feeling of lightness, and even a skin that seems smoother. It is possible to reproduce the right gestures yourself, at home, provided you respect the sweetness and precision of the technique.
No, your arms are not “big”: they may just be full of water. By adopting this simple and soft drainage gesture, you can relaunch traffic, refine them and reconcile definitively with your arms.
