Dr Lanzer anounces his new VIBROSAUN

Monday, March 23rd, 2009

VIBROSAUN
What is the Vibrosaun:

Vibrosaun is the result of a long and intensive study by a group of highly qualified people: A medical practitioner, a chiropractor, an osteopath, a physiotherapist and a design engineer, It was the intent of this group to create a simple, economical and universal machine that would as near as possible, stimulate exercise without putting stress on the body. This has not only been achieved, but the benefits derived by the users of the vibrosaun have been overwhelming.

Conceived by Laurie Hardie in 1985. The Vibrosaun is simply a state of the art- therapeutic dry sauna. A self contained unit consisting of a padded vibrating bed with dry heat circulated throughout the unit.
Cooling negative ion charged air is fed onto the patients face. Stereophonic music and aromatherapy is integrated into the head rest area. All functions can be controlled from within the unit by the user, i.e degree of heat, degree of vibration and velocity of negative ion charged air onto the face can all be controlled by the user or can be preset to suit each individuals personal requirements.

The vibrosaun combines sauna and vibration in a reclining position and stimulates the effect of exercising or massage. The vibration is set to a frequency believed to be acceptable to the subconscious, therefore reducing stress by promoting mental and physical relaxation particularly when combined with a suitable selection of music or therapeutic CDs played through the built in speakers. The vibrating bed allows the user to maintain a degree of muscle tone and fitness in a gentle and soothing way.

How the Vibrosaun works:

The vibrosaun relaxes the muscles whilst the introduction of heat dilates the blood vessels. Thereby increasing the heart and pulse rate. This, in turn increases the blood flow and intake of oxygen. The body cells use oxygen to burn up carbohydrates, such as starch, etc. And then burn up the fat cells. It also accelerates the kidney function in the removal of lactic acids and the body wastes. A healthier body must result.

What can Vibrosaun do?

Weightloss:

Because the vibration relaxes the muscles and stimulates movement, even this in itself contributes in a minor way to the burning up of calories, then as the dry heat is introduced and the body temperature increases, this dilates the blood vessels and increases circulation, intake of oxygen and of course increases the heart and pulse rate, when the circulation is increased at this time, we believe the body receives signals from the brain and releases the stored up energy exactly the same as it does when the circulation is increased per medium of physical exercise.

The Vibrosaun has proven to be a very effective method in assisting with weight reduction. The machine may be programmed to stimulate the effects if a stimulating jog without the harmful side effects. Best results are combined with Liposuction for body contouring.

Cellulite:

The Vibrosaun could have been called the ‘Cellulite Buster”. All of its key features and effects are generally considered the major factors in cellulite reduction. Many Vibrosaun users have reported rapid reduction in unsightly cellulite.

Arthritis Relief:

Because the heat dilates the blood vessels and increases the circulation, the kidney function is improved thereby filtering out toxins, including lactic acid. Lactic acid can build up in the joints causing arthritis and in fact people using Vibrosaun regularly, have reported complete relief from pain that accompanies arthritis.

Stress and Insomnia:

Once again, the relaxing vibration coupled with the heat and increased circulation lull the body into a sense of deep relaxation and serenity.

Back Ache:

The relaxing vibration combined with the heat, not only relaxes the muscle but as the user is in a recumbent position, the vertebra are separated allowing the dilated blood to flow unobstructed throughout the spinal column as the blood nurtures every tissue in the body.

It is our belief that when pain is registered in the back, the brain sends a message to the appropriate muscles to contract restricting the blood flow and putting pressure on the nervous system, the more the muscle contract, the more other muscles contract in sympathy resulting in back ache, therefore the relaxing of the muscles and increased circulation, combined with the heat and relaxed state of mind encouraged by the negative ion charged air, the soothing music and aromatherapy, relief and accelerated healing result.

Dr Lanzer Talks About Liposuction and other Cosmetic Surgery Procedures

Friday, March 6th, 2009

Dr Lanzer wrote this week:

Sagging upper eyelids are common as we age and they can cause a “tired” appearance. Likewise a collection of fat in the lower lids can cause a permanent dark shadow that also gives the impression of ageing and tiredness. The co2 laser, introduced by a dermatologist more than 15 years ago, can be used to enhance the eyelid appearance. The result is natural and creates a youthful result.

If you stand in front of the mirror and push the skin towards your ear, you can instantly see what the skin suture lift procedure can do for your face.

The suture lift involves using sutures alone under the outer cheek skin, near the ears, to lift the drooping cheeks. There is no excision surgery of loose skin. The procedure is performed through a small incision behind the ear, where the suture is fixed to the ear cartilage.

Liposuction remains one of the most popular cosmetic procedures. It is a relatively safe method for reshaping such areas as the outer thighs, hips, and stomach in women. Men often use liposuction to remove embarrassing “man boobs” on unwanted fat on their flanks and stomach.

During the procedure the unwanted fat is expanded with a watery solution that is then removed through “key holes”. Most areas of the body can be treated including the arms, ankles, inner thighs, back and knees. Mega-liposuction is ideal for patients weighing between 80kg and 130 kg. It is often performed in two stages with a total of 10 litres of fat removed. Most areas of the body are treatable.

Liposuction can also be used to reduce breast size. Through two tiny nicks dermatologists can remove between 400ml and 2 litres of fat from a woman’s heavy breasts. Women of all ages undergo the procedure and they can return to normal duties in a few days.

BREAKOUT

Dr Daniel Lanzer is recognised as a specialist and a pioneer many of these significant breakthroughs.

He enjoys a reputation based on trust and experience and has performed more than 10,000 liposuction procedures.

Recently Dr Lanzer appeared on Channel 7’s Today Tonight to explain the Vaser Hi Def Liposculpture treatment.

Dr Lanzer also offers liposuction, skin sutures, eyelid rejuvenation and many other breakthrough cosmetic procedures.

On a previous Today Tonight program Dr Lanzer explained the latest methods in liposuction.

He explained that not all liposuction methods are the same and tumescent liposuction has been shown to be the safest. He said around five litres of fat can be removed in an hour-long procedure and results are dramatic.

It can be just the psychological boost that patients need to change their life and lifestyle.

Dr Lanzer has been featured more than 50 times in the media both on TV and magazines. A Current Affair, Good Medicine and The Women’s Day have all featured Dr Lanzer’s world pioneering methods of breast reduction.

And A Current Affair featured Dr Lanzer as the first doctor in Australia to use the permanent facial filler called Aquamid.

Dr Lanzer operates in his new warn and friendly state-of-the-art day surgery centre in Malvern. Free consultations are also available in his centres in Glen Waverley, Ballarat, Geelong and Werribee. Ph: 9500 8888 or visit www.drlanzer.com

The body without the work?

Men want them, women want men who have them, and it’s something money can’t buy…until now.

Vaser Hi Def is a whole new approach to lipo-sculpture to men and women and what it does is produce an athletic look and high definition muscles,” said cosmetic surgeon, Dr. Daniel Lanzer.

Guillermo Tempo will be one of the first in the country to undergo this new technique to get the 6 pack he’s always wanted.

“For the patients that continue to exercise and build up their muscle, they’ll enhance those results, so it’s not a replacement for the gym, it’s a way of improving what they’re trying to get”, Dr. Lanzer said.

“Technology is the Vaser: a third generation ultrasound machine. And what that’s doing is softening the fat and causing skin retraction. We selectively remove more fat at the insertion points of the muscle and this gives definition to the muscle itself,” Dr. Lanzer said.

Marketing expert Simon Hammond sees cosmetic surgery as a way of branding and marketing ourselves.

“It used to be a female only terrain to look after their image. That’s no longer the case. I think it’s 50/50 men that I’m seeing coming through are very much looking at the whole package of what they can be,” he said.
