I've put together the information on this site based on my own experimentation with making wraps at home and also having professional wraps at a wrapping salon.  Having wraps done professionally can be quite expensive and I have found that doing my own wraps at home is an affordable substitute.  You can determine  the effectiveness of your treatment by taking measurements before and after and by observing for improvements in skin tone and appearance. 

You most likely will not notice a difference on the scales unless you are dieting also.  I was absolutely amazed after my first wrapping experience. I lost several inches that first session!  I was so impressed I continued to have weekly professional wrapping but the cost was hard for me to justify so I began doing my own wrapping at home and found the results to be just as good.
 
 So how does wrapping work?  This is how it was explained to me at the salon.  Our bodies have a set number of fat cells. When we gain weight, we don't grow more fat cells, instead the fat cells we already have just swell and fill with toxins and fluids.  And when we lose weight we don't actually lose any fat cells, instead our cells simply shrink down to a smaller size.  The purpose of wrapping is to draw toxins out of the fat cells so the cells become smaller. A person that has looser 'blubbery' type fat is supposed to respond more rapidly and lose inches faster than someone who has a more solidly packed fat build.
 
Before doing your wrap you should take measurements and compare your results with after your treatment.  Take measurements in several places if you are doing a full body wrap.  For example you should measure your neck, upper arm, lower arm, bust, midsection, over tummy, over hips, upper thigh, mid thigh, calf, ankle, etc.  Also note and compare your skin tone and appearance of stretch marks, cellulite, and blemishes before and after. You  may find that one type of wrap is more effective for the results you are trying to achieve.  Be aware though that it is normal to have somewhat drier than normal skin for 2-3 days after your wrap.
 
You should be able to do wraps as often as you like depending on how your skin reacts to the recipes.  I don't have sensitive skin so I have not encountered any problems, but if your skin is sensitive you should do a test area first.  The clay wrap might cause your skin to be red for awhile after you remove it. So when doing clay or using ingredients you have never used before you should test on your inner arm first and be cautious when using the solutions on your facial skin.  Wrapping itself should pose no problem.  In fact the wrapping salons will do multiple mineral wraps in one day in emergency situations (such as needing to fit into a dress at the last minute)  Once a week should be appropriate for a full body wrap.
