Belt up to slim down
by Chan Soo Wah
Busy people who do not have much time to go to the gym to keep themselves trim may want to check out Osim (M) Sdn Bhd’s new product – a slimming belt called the Osim uKimono.
Featuring Osim’s Duo+ Technology, the uKimono combines Osim’s signature Twin Power Osimotion with kneading massage. This, apparently, is an improved and effective method to get rid of flab around the tummy, butt and thigh areas.
Its mechanics are inspired by shiatsu, a popular Japanese massage technique utilising finger and thumb pressure to correct imbalances in the body, and for maintaining and promoting health
Osim CEO and director Datuk Tay Sim Kim said the company has been getting feedback from its customers demanding an all-in-one solution to stay fit and trim. "The uKimono is our answer to that," he said.
The product was launched recently by the company, in the presence of its ambassadors, popular Taiwanese pop girl group SHE comprising Selina Jen, Hebe Tien and Ella Chen.
According to Osim, the uKimono stands out from other slimming belts in the market because it also effectively relieves muscle aches and fatique.
The design of the uKimono, based on the Japanese kimono belt called obi, also ensures an ergonomic fit and maximum coverage to the common problem areas the user wants to trim down.
Ella and her bandmates have nothing but praise for the product. "With our tight schedule, working out is a hard task for us. But the uKimono keeps us in shape and all we’ve to do is strap it around the areas we want to tone up, adjust the speed of the massage and see the results!
"No more tough and tiring exercises," said a delighted Ella.
The Osim uKimono retails at RM799 and is available at all Osim outlets.
