PrimeVerified listingWhat is anti-cellulite massage?
Anti-cellulite massage is a firm, brisk treatment aimed at the thighs, hips, buttocks and sometimes the upper arms. The therapist uses deep kneading, rolling, cupping and fast friction strokes, often with a warming or caffeine-based oil, to increase local circulation and lymph flow, break down fluid retention and soften the fibrous bands that give cellulite its dimpled look.
It is not a cure — no massage removes fat — but a course of sessions, together with hydration and exercise, does visibly improve the texture and tone of the skin for many people. Some therapists combine it with manual lymphatic drainage or with dry body brushing, and salons may pair it with wraps or mechanical treatments.
Expect the session to feel vigorous, and some redness afterwards is normal. Sessions are 30 to 60 minutes and are usually sold in courses of six to ten, one or two a week, with a maintenance session monthly afterwards. It is most commonly listed by salons and by therapists with a beauty background.

Where to find it in London
Mayfair, Knightsbridge and Chelsea hold the high-end clinics and hotel spas, where ninety-minute treatments and a few days' notice are the norm and rates run a third above the rest of the city. Soho and Shoreditch are younger and later, with studios open until ten and a strong showing of Thai and deep tissue work for people coming straight from the office. Kensington and Paddington have the largest number of independent therapists working from their own treatment rooms, and Canary Wharf is almost entirely a weekday market: mobile massage to offices and hotels, sports and back treatments booked at lunchtime, and very little at weekends.
