I can’t say enough about T-Tapp’s skin brushing and skin products–they work!
Considering how many sizes I’ve lost, you’d expect there to be some loose skin hanging around.
There isn’t.
Oh, my tummy looks wrinkly when I “suck it in” and there is some wrinkly skin on my inner thighs, but when I think how much my body has been stretched, not just by pregnancies but also by gaining weight, it’s really amazing that I don’t need a “tuck” here and there!
So what did/do I do?
First of all, I use T-Tapp’s Skin Brush. I believe it is also sold at Bed, Bath and Beyond. It has natural tampico bristles and a wooden handle. When you buy it from T-Tapp, you can also purchase a dvd where Teresa shows you (while she’s clothed!) how to use it, and the dvd has a few extra T-Tapp moves on it, too. There is also a brochure, showing how to brush (not included with the brush). There are many free videos out there, too–I know Teresa’s sequence is a little different, but the basic premise is to always brush towards your heart. I personally feel it’s worth the extra to get the dvd (I thought I had one and realized I had been borrowing a friend’s for a loonnngg time! Oops! 
) The brochure is helpful, but I thought the dvd was even better. There is a package that includes the brush, dvd, brochure, a bottle of Alfalfa, a bottle of Fibertox, a Yes You Can seminar dvd and The Truth About Cellulite audio cds. All in all, a very good deal!
I would add some dead sea salt to that order, too! I like using the dead sea salt in a bath, but even better, I like to make “salt masks” with them. You can certainly use any dead sea salt, but I really like the quality of Teresa’s! I have used the cheaper salts in my bath, but saved hers for my masks.
How do you make a mask?
I chop the salt a bit finer in my mini-chopper. I know some ladies grind it finer in their coffee grinder, but I don’t have one. I chop about a tablespoon of salt finer, put it in a cup and take it to my shower. I usually get everything ready and put it just outside my shower, but if you have a tub/shower combo, you could set it on the edge of that. I get some aloe vera gel (health food store brand that doesn’t have anything bad in it), and I keep a partial bottle of grapefruit essential oil in my cabinet (I also put a few drops in my water that I drink–yummy!). I will take a little bit of the salt, add a few drops of grapefruit essential oil to it, then just enough aloe gel to dissolve the salt. Sometimes I might add a tiny bit of Skin Saver Body “lotion” (which is more of a thick oil). I slather this on an area (I usually start with my tummy) while standing in the shower. There are always a few salt crystals that fall, so I like already being in the shower so I don’t make a mess on the floor! Then I repeat for other areas (my areas are tummy, thighs, buns and forearms, and if I have a little extra, I’ll do tops of my shoulders and the backs of my hands). Anywhere you have loose skin or cellulite, really.
I leave that mixture on for 5-20 minutes (usually around 10 minutes). What do I do during that time? Pray, stand in T-Tapp stance (60 seconds and you’ll feel the heat!), do Butterflies or other arms moves. It really seems to go by somewhat quickly! I’ve also set up the cd player before I get started and listened to a cd (informational, inspirational, or music).
After the time is up, I go ahead and shower as usual. After drying off, I will usually mix a little Skin Saver Body into my favorite lotion, or with some coconut and almond oil or with shea butter and slather on. I call it “dessert for the skin”! Mmm-mmm! And you smell really nice, too! 
Sometimes I add a few drops of the grapefruit oil to my lotion mixture, too.
I truly credit the masks, salt baths (1/2-1 cup per bath), brushing and alfalfa for keeping my skin elastic, youthful and healthy!
Teresa’s alfalfa is Premium Blended–meaning one field is sprayed with ionic minerals, another is not–just soaks up what God gives it through a normal growing season. They are then “blended” (hence the name). Her alfalfa is organic and contains NO stems or seeds. Sometimes when people have issues taking alfalfa, it’s because they are actually reacting to the stems and seeds. If you have a legume allergy, you might not be able to take it.
I confess I thought it was pricey and didn’t think it was worth the difference. I was taking a good brand, so I decided to take that until it was gone. Then I bought one bottle of Teresa’s to “try”. I was hearing how hers was different, and I think I got that bottle on special. Well! Let me tell you within the first day I was shedding water like crazy! I could definitely tell a difference by the time that bottle was gone!
Since then, I’ve also found it helps tremendously with hormonal balance. Alfalfa is an adaptive herb in this respect–helping balance whichever hormones need it. One of my friends was actually able to get off her bioidenticals using Teresa’s Alfalfa! Another friend has ulceritive colitis and was told she’d need to take a medication that would cost her $900 a month–eek! She took Teresa’s alfalfa instead and her colitis rarely bothers her now!
I personally feel more balanced hormonally than I did in my 20s! I have been on bioidenticals, even before T-Tapp, but I feel T-Tapp has balanced my hormones out even more–at 48! Between the exercise itself and the CRT system, I feel and look better now than I did 20 years ago!!!
I also want to report that two of my daughters who were having issues with their cycles have also found the Premium Blended Alfalfa to help regulate their cycles! Wish I had had it when I was in my teens!
Let me say that I didn’t start off using everything right away. I started with the brush. Then the alfalfa. Then I read about dead sea salt baths and masks. I would get things when they went on special for Deep Discount Tuesday or some holiday special.
Teresa only will carry quality products she believes in. I’ve found that to be very true! You can certainly buy the brush at Bed, Bath and Beyond (Yerba Prima is the brand name), find a video on Youtube that is close to what her method is, and even purchase dead sea salts at Wal-Mart. There’s no problem in that! But do consider her alfalfa over the other brands. Many, many people have found hers to be superior–Shaklee has a good one, but you’d have to take 6 to her 1!
Alfalfa feeds the skin–which is important as you’re losing weight/inches/sizes, to help it snap back. I don’t know that I ever expect my skin to be smooth in my tummy area–I’m just thrilled there is no hanging skin!
I’ve even been told by some people who first meet us that they thought I was my older daughters’ sister instead of their mother! Yes, I have good “genes”, but I really think the alfalfa and T-Tapp have helped my skin by feeding and getting the bloodflow to it–giving me that “T-Tapp Glow”!
And the real test?
When my sweet husband was rubbing my arm the other day and said, “Oohhhh! Soooofffffttt!” 
Proof’s in the puddin’!
Happy Tappin’!
