The Emergence of New Technologies in Matters of Health
I
am more of a traditionalist in my approach to health and fitness. I
am generally quite fascinated by the advancements made in medicine,
especially when combined with our progress in technological matters,
it is a symbiotic relationship which renders incredible seemingly
miraculous results. An issue of late which I believe needs more
coverage around the world is with regards to the incredible gains
made in Stem
Cell Research.
I have had cartilage removed from my shoulders which unfortunately
doesn't grow back. However people with the same issue who have
undergone stem cell therapy have seen the regrowth of their cartilage
which is staggering. So from sporting injuries to severe burns
victims, it stimulates the re-growth all manner of human tissue from
cartilage to skin. You can read a little more about this incredible
technique here.
Which
brings me to something which is also just very interesting in terms
of the 'fight against the flab'. The Hypoxi
Knightsbridge based
business claims (via use of its machines) to be able to spot reduce
fatty tissue in those who have tried and failed to do so via the
conventional methods of combining a good nutritious diet and regular exercise.
They do this via the use of one of their machines, which to me is
quite a revolutionary concept in that it is non surgical for one
thing. The traditional ways of losing fat usually depend upon serious
time exercising on treadmills, bicycles and via any other form of
cardio vascular exercise in the hope of reducing our overall body-fat
percentage to a point we are a happy (ish) with. So, the notion of a
machine being able to spot reduce fat is quite a radical concept. Of
course I am aware that liposuction can also spot reduce fatty tissue,
it is an incredible technique but I think the surgical aspect would
deter most people from this method.

'4 Machines Which Could Change Your Life'
The Hypoxi
machines are
unique in that they claim to be able to aid in the spot reduction of
fatty deposits within the body. Also, they are designed for use by
anyone; from fit people who are just trying to burn through those
last few stubborn pounds to those who might exhibit the 'pear-shape'
form. These machines come in varying shapes and forms dependent upon
the area of the body which you which to eradicate fat from. So if you
have fatty deposits around your waist and hips, you will use a
different machine to someone who is aiming to rid themselves of
cellulite or someone hoping to regain some skin firmness and battle
water retention for example. The fact there are such technologies
being developed in this field is cool, due to the fact it is non
intrusive and incorporates exercise it seems a lot more of an
appealing way to try and hit those last few pounds of fat than
undergoing the discomfort of surgery and that whole rigmarole.
I
would just like to state, once again, that this type of treatment
should only be considered once other conventional methods, such as the afore-mentioned nutritious balanced diet combined with regular exercise, have failed
you. No two people lose fat in the same way and I know of many people
who are very active and yet still carry a few pounds of unwanted
non-functional weight. It can be especially difficult to shift such
weight once you hit 30 as everything begins slowing down. I find it
exciting to wonder where such techniques might be in another 10, 20 or
even 50 years time, and how easily available all such things will one day become to people. The results of the Hypoxi system seem to be quite
impressive, even after just 4 weeks of treatment as can be seen via
the photographs on the website.
