Joanne lays down the rules as you begin — no salt (it's respon- sible for fluid retention in the tisses), no coffee — herbal teas only, fresh fruits and vegetables and proteins: fish, chicken and beef, nothing canned, no cigaret- tes and alcohol in minute quan- tities only, if you must. Then the appropriate treatment is prescribed, whether intendéd to induce weight loss, inch reduc- tion, cellulite breakdown, treat- ment of circulatory problems and any combination needed to ac- complish the maximum benefit for each individual client.
