Slimming centres: what the machines really do

You have seen the boards. 'Lose 5 kg in 10 days.' 'Inch loss in one session.' An Indian slimming centre asks for thousands, sometimes lakhs, for a package of machine sittings. This is not the detox-tea product scam. It is not fat-burning pills. It is not the big weight-loss-industry story. It is about your neighbourhood slimming clinic, the cavitation, laser-lipo, vibro-plate, sauna-wrap, body-wrap inch-loss places. We will look at what the machines really do, what the measurement tricks hide, and why the kilos that do come off come from their diet sheet, a calorie deficit you can build yourself for free.
