How to Release Cellulite from Your Buttocks and the Back of Your Legs

Ladies, let’s talk about a topic we all secretly (or not-so-secretly) care about—cellulite. That dimpled, stubborn tissue hanging out on your backside? It’s not just about fat; it’s all about fascia! And if your fascia is tight, tangled, or dehydrated, no amount of dieting or squats will smooth things out. But don’t worry—I’ve got you.

Today, I’m walking you through my fascia-focused cellulite release technique, step by step. Grab your fascia tool and let’s get to work!

Step 1: Poke & Wiggle at the Sacrum

We’re starting with the sacrum, the triangular bone at the base of your spine. Why? Because this area holds a ton of tension and is a key point for circulation in the lower body.

Take your fascia tool and gently poke the skin near each side of the sacrum. Then, do a little wiggle-wiggle motion—this stimulates the nervous system and starts breaking up adhesions in the deep layers of fascia. Think of it as waking up your tissues!

Step 2: Light & Brisk Motion All Over Your Rear End

Now, we create circulation—because where there’s circulation, there’s collagen! Using light, brisk strokes, glide your fascia tool all over your glutes. Keep the motion quick and rhythmic—this stimulates lymphatic drainage and kickstarts collagen production for smoother skin.

Bonus tip: Do this for at least two minutes to maximize blood flow. If you feel warmth, you’re doing it right!

Step 3: Glute-Hammy Connector Release

This is a game-changer. The glute-hammy junction (where your butt meets your thighs) is a hotspot for fascia restriction. Using your tool, work side to side across this area. Be firm but gentle—think of it as coaxing the fascia to open up, not attacking it.

If you feel little lumps or tenderness, don’t freak out. That’s just tight fascia that needs love. Spend extra time here to restore elasticity and break up those adhesions!

Step 4: Hamstring & Knee Junction Restoration

Your hamstrings are crucial in the fight against cellulite! Start from the back of your thigh and glide your fascia tool up and down the entire hamstring, all the way through to the back of the knee junction.

This restores the natural glide of the fascia and keeps your legs feeling (and looking) smooth and lifted. Pay special attention to the area behind the knees—this is a drainage point for toxins that can contribute to inflammation and cellulite buildup.

Final Thoughts: Keep it Consistent!

Fascia work isn’t a one-and-done deal. You’ll see the best results by incorporating this into your routine at least three times a week. Pair it with hydration, movement, and proper nutrition (hello, collagen-boosting foods!) for lasting results.

Trust me—when you give your fascia the love it needs, your skin glows and your body moves with freedom. Let’s keep up, not catch up, ladies!
