LPG® Aesthetic Medical Treatments now available at Camelot Spa The Boardwalk

LPG® endermologie Camelot Spa

A few months ago, I met Vivienne Marks who owns a few Camelot Spa’s in Port Elizabeth. Through the evolving of our friendship I asked her for advice on how I could improve my circulation and feeling in my legs. Her first thought was to spend time in the floatation pool at her Boardwalk Spa. A week or two after this conversation she excitedly announced that she was bringing an LPG® endermologie machine to Port Elizabeth and thought that I would be a good candidate for a test subject.

Endermologie® was developed by Louis-Paul Guitay (LPG) in the early 1980s when it was originally used in the treatment of burns to prevent skin contraction and to loosen scar tissue.

During these initial treatments it was noticed that it unexpectedly improved the appearance of cellulite in some patients and as a consequence endermologie® became widely used for aesthetic purposes in France and the USA. This unique revolutionary device is now used by over 200,000 people daily.

The endermologie® technique was developed to make the most of this natural potential in a completely non-invasive, non-aggressive, pleasurable, and safe way. We are convinced that a healthy and respected skin is the key to a beautiful figure and radiant, youthful skin.

In contrast to a lot of the devices and techniques available on the market, LPG® endermologie offers a 100% natural alternative: stimulating dormant cellular activity within our skin to fight all unaesthetic manifestations (wrinkles, sagging skin, localized resistant fat, cellulite appearance, and more).

Medical endermologie® sessions treat all connective tissue transformations, circulation problems, and muscle pathologies naturally and painlessly, without any side effects.

These treatments reduce physical signs and symptoms considerably (such as erythema, induration, pain, loss of joint mobility, muscle tension, stiffness, soreness, swelling) and speed up the healing process.

The mechanical stimulation of cells, called endermologie®, thus reactivates their awakening naturally and painlessly. After more than 30 years of expertise and scientific research, LPG® creates a new patent to control all these natural mechanisms in a single treatment..endermologie®

Six years ago I contracted Guillain Barre Syndrome and within twenty minutes of waking up with a debilitating pain in my right arm, I was completely paralysed from the neck down bar that I could move my left hand. The eventual diagnosis was that I had contracted a virus which had triggered an auto immune condition.

I was told that any improvements on my condition would be for up to two years after the incident and then I would reach a plateau and thereafter any further improvements would be unlikely. I spent ten days in hospital and my husband was advised to move me to a recovery and rehabilitation facility.

I refused to accept this and after a couple of weeks of being in a wheelchair, I started working with a biokineticist who got me into a walking frame and eventually I was able to walk at 2km an hour on the treadmill! Over the years I have kept progressing, very well, I have thought, even after the two year mark. In general I was very grateful to be where I am now and I really did feel that I was leading close to a normal physical life again.

At the time of writing I have completed six LPG® sessions and I can see a marked difference in my silhouette, the poor circulation had led to cellulite deposits and unsightly bulges on my legs and thighs, these are greatly reduced and in some areas are gone completely. I have also noticed that with the easier walking, my posture is also improving again.

I had forgotten the art of being spontaneous, of being able to go for a walk on the beach without having to first take into consideration was there a handrail to get up and down the steps leading to the sand, were there rocks which I would have to climb over? Being able to go on a boat cruise and not have to worry about being able to climb up and swing my legs over the side of the boat. These are small things which we take for granted but which have a huge impact on our quality of life.

The LPG® treatments have changed my life, I feel like a new person. I feel strong, more confident and complete again. I feel alive and so much more so because for the first time in a very long time, I can feel the sensation of the air flowing into my lungs when I breathe…

About us

Actually, Home Food and Travel offers a lot more than just reviews of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities.  We also visit great destinations, receive advice from interior designers and stop to smell the roses and taste the coffee.

Our team of journalists are seasoned travels and love visiting the myriad of exciting places around South Africa.  Whether it is off the beaten track or in the heart of the top attractions of the country, we’ll be there,

Home Food and Travel advice on finding the right accommodation

So what is the right accommodation?  Well more often than not, it’s your travel budget that dictates the type of accommodation that you choose. 

Expensive is not always better.  Our team at Home Food and Travel will tell you that they have camped in areas with limited ablutions and had a wonderful holiday.  They have also spent a night in a five star hotel only to be disappointed because their expectations exceeded the experience.

The reason for your travels will also affect your choice.  A business trip requires different amenities to a beach holiday. 

Our articles, reviews and experiences can certainly help you make your decision.

Restaurants with a good mix of service, food and ambiance

To my mind a great restaurant offers three things – excellent service, great food and a wonderful ambiance.  Of these, service is the most important. 

No matter that the food is delicious and the setting delightful, poor service can ruin the occasion.  However, great service combined with mediocre meal and a plane jane restaurant can still be a pleasant night out.

We’ve eaten in restaurants that are really dirty but with incredible food and couldn’t help but give a rave review.  We’ve also hardly noticed what we ate because the setting was just amazing.

However, the best restaurants come with the best of service, food and ambiance.

Spas are the ultimate relaxation aid

How do you know when you have had a great spa experience?  The answer, of course, is when you doze off on the treatment table. 

Well that’s our theory anyway.  It also doesn’t take a grand location with enormous facilities for a spa to be really good

A small, personal spa that is owner run can result in the best massage you have ever experienced.  However, the grand spas in five star hotels offer unsurpassed facilities in an environment that just makes the stress in your shoulders and neck melt away before you even finish checking in.

Adventure!

You don’t have to be an adrenaline junky to enjoy an exciting experience.  In fact, what are commonly termed adventure activities usually have incredibly high safety standards and unblemished safety records.

Ziplining, bungy jumping and shark cage diving are all very safe.  It’s just that our mind tells us we are craaazzzzyyyy to be doing this.

On the road to great places of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities

If you’re driving, be safe and make use of all the wonderful farm stalls that populate South Africa’s open roads.

If you overhear somebody asking a lot of questions or see someone taking photos of empty bedrooms chances are it’s one of our Home Food and Travel team members.

We’re out looking or those great places of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities.

See you on the road!
