Ultrasound cavitation
Ultrasound Fat Cavitation (USFC) is the method in handling obesity, especially in destroying fat and shaping a particular part of the body. As one of the non-surgical correction methods, USFC is preferred at decreasing the risk of complications due to obesity.
Exercise
The female will stand on the cushioned tread and grasp by her both hands the two arms of the treadmill. Treadmill will adjust to apply moderate intensity training. It was used for 30 minutes divided into five-minutes warming up, twenty-minutes active exercise and five-minutes cooling down and it was used twice a week for twelve weeks.
