Cheongju body slimming esthetic: lie-down SlimOn treatment at It's J

Have you ever heard of a lie-down diet? hahaha It's a treatment I'd been curious about for a while, and I finally went and got it. I was so happy with it and the results were amazing, so please read on!

It's J (이츠제이) is a total beauty shop with everything gathered in one place: a hair salon, nails, skin care, waxing, semi-permanent makeup, body treatments and more! Being able to get all of that in a single building... honestly amazing. I spotted celebrity autographs on one wall too haha As expected of It's J!

It's split across three floors like this. I went up to the 3rd floor for my body treatment.

There's a dog in the 3rd-floor treatment room, and it's such a sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet cutie 🐾

The interior was really luxurious and the director was so kind 🙂

The body treatments cover not just dieting but detox, postpartum care and even wedding prep.

How does the SlimOn body treatment work?

The treatment I had was SlimOn, a new-concept diet where you lose weight lying down. Before the treatment, the director had a thorough consultation with me and carefully checked my body, lifestyle habits and so on!

She also explained the SlimOn treatment in detail haha After a body composition analysis with an InBody scan, there's the TNT treatment, which builds muscle and reduces fat, and then the Bio Photon treatment, which uses growth-ray light energy.

They say just 45 minutes of Photon gives the effect of 5 hours of running. Isn't that amazing? hahaha And all you do is lie there!!!

We did the InBody scan first. That thing on the left is the Bio Photon treatment.

I undressed fully and changed into a gown and disposable underwear.

For an accurate InBody reading I fasted for 3 hours before coming. (They give you all the instructions in advance!) After the scan, the director explained my body type in a way that was easy to understand.

The InBody scan is done twice, before and after the treatment, and I was so curious what kind of change there'd be.

The TNT treatment felt like an ab workout

After the InBody scan, we started with the TNT treatment. TNT is a muscle therapy & body slimming treatment that builds muscle and reduces fat, plus a womb therapy using a pelvic floor chair.

She placed it on my abdomen, and all I had to do was lie there!! hahaha I think it's even better because you can focus the treatment on whichever area you want.

The intensity is adjustable too, and the director checked in with me step by step and set it to a level that was comfortable for me. Can you see the slight twitching in the video?! My belly kept flinching and quivering haha It really felt like doing an ab workout.

Bio Photon treatment and the InBody before-and-after

After about 30 minutes of TNT, I had the Bio Photon treatment. Bio Photon uses growth-ray light energy to flush out waste and toxins and promote fat breakdown, they say.

For this one you also just get into the capsule and lie there for 30 minutes. Every single treatment is done just by lying down hahaha There's a phone holder so you can put on a video and watch, but it was so warm and cozy I got sleepy 😌

InBody before and after the treatment

Before

After Weight 0.4kg ↓ Skeletal muscle mass 0.6kg ↑ Body fat mass 1.4kg ↓ Visceral fat level 1 level ↓ Visceral fat area 4cm ↓

Isn't that amazing? I just lay there for an hour, and my body fat really went down while my skeletal muscle mass went up. I'd been so curious whether you could really diet comfortably lying down, and seeing it in the results made it even more, more, more surprising. I think this would be a big help for anyone preparing for a diet, detox or postpartum care 👍 It's J, the Cheongju esthetic for dieting, gets my full recommendation ~@
