Seniors looking to improve their wellbeing know that the world of health care can be an overwhelming place. With so many options, it’s hard to know where to start.
Traditional health care methods like massage therapy may work for some, but others may look for an alternative.
A Kelowna-based company praises a method as an all-round service that has reportedly helped improve a wide variety of diseases.
Odette’s skin care and medi-spa takes a different approach to skin care and wellness. It uses a procedure called enderomology. Primarily a skin care and face lift service, Odette’s Skincare and Medi Spa has been helping Kelowna seniors feel healthy and look great while doing it.
The Endermologie procedure uses gentle suction and rolling to ventilate the tissue, increasing lymphatic drainage in patients by 300 percent and blood circulation by 600 percent.
Endermologie devices have been used in hospitals to treat some diseases for about 30 years, especially in Europe. It was originally developed to treat scars and burns and is still used today in major recovery centers for the treatment of back pain.
Although Odette’s is primarily used for facelifts, fat cellulite reduction, injury recovery, lymphatic drainage, and water retention to name a few, Odette Baumgartner believes that Endermologie treatments offer a wide variety of health benefits.
“We’ve had a lot of seniors who have had hip replacements, for example, that are still very stiff. So that helps with mobility, flexibility … it helps with inflammation, it helps with pain,” said Baumgartner, the owner of Odette’s.
In addition, it is painless and non-contact. The process doesn’t require anyone to touch you. She called it the world’s only non-invasive medical treatment to reduce fat and cellulite.
“It will (Endermologie) increase or replace the need for things like shock wave therapy, IMS, acupuncture, and even massage therapy,” she said.
Another popular treatment for seniors that Odette offers, Baumgartner explained, is a live blood test, also known as an “internal selfie”. After this examination, Odette’s can help with diet changes and changes in daily food intake.
She advised that those who feel sick, chronic, tired, or immobile should just try Odette’s alternative approach to improving their health.
“When you come to us, you will be trained so that you can make your own decisions,” she said.
She said the world of health care can be an overwhelming place for seniors.
“We see that many … older people can be skeptical because their children tell them what to do, their doctor tells them what to do, everyone tells them what to do,” said Baumgartner.
“Then come here and we’ll tell you what to do. We simplify everything for you and then let you make your own decisions. ”
