Full BodyTox vs TummyTox
Full BodyTox vs TummyTox: a 90-minute head-to-toe Brazilian lymphatic ritual ($315), or a focused 45-minute session on the abdomen and flanks ($225).
By The Renu lymphatic and massage team · Reviewed by Meeghan Mackenzie, RMT, CLT · 3 min read
The Full BodyTox is our 90-minute, head-to-toe Brazilian lymphatic ritual, for when you want to feel lighter and more sculpted everywhere. TummyTox is a focused 45-minute session for the abdomen and flanks, perfect when bloating and a puffy midsection are what's bothering you most. Both use the same Brazilian lymphatic technique; the difference is how much of you we treat.

The Full BodyTox
The method we practise at Renu was designed by celebrity therapist Rebecca Faria. The Full BodyTox is an hour and a half of transformative, full-body Brazilian lymphatic work. We open the lymph node groups first, then use rhythmic, sculpting strokes to move retained fluid and contour the silhouette from your legs upward. It’s designed to support your body’s natural detox, give your immune system a helping hand, improve the appearance of cellulite and sculpt your shape by releasing excess water weight.
Most clients see a noticeable difference after the very first session: a lighter body, a more defined waist and legs that feel less heavy.
TummyTox
TummyTox focuses strictly on your abdomen and flanks. After manually opening up the lymph nodes, your therapist works to sculpt the abdominal area, reduce bloating and swelling, and move stagnant fluid toward the nodes.
The belly is also one of the busiest places in your lymphatic system. More than half of your lymph nodes sit in your abdomen, close to the gut, which meets more potential invaders than any other part of the body. Gentle, rhythmic work here, paired with deep belly breathing, encourages flow through one of your body’s most important immune neighbourhoods.
Which should you choose?
- Choose the Full BodyTox if you’re preparing for a wedding, holiday or shoot, if your legs and hips hold fluid, or if you want a complete reset.
- Choose TummyTox if bloating is your main concern, if you’re short on time, or as a maintenance session between Full BodyTox appointments.
- Not sure? Many clients start with a Full BodyTox, then use TummyTox to keep their midsection feeling light between sessions.
Whichever you choose, drink plenty of water afterwards, keep meals light and clean for the rest of the day, and go easy on salt, sugar and alcohol to make your results last.
From Renu’s treatment room
We often hear, “I just want my stomach to feel normal again.” TummyTox is wonderful for that. But when clients try the Full BodyTox, many say they didn’t realise how heavy their whole body felt until it wasn’t. There’s no wrong answer; it’s about what your body is asking for right now.

Education, not a diagnosis. Let us know if you’re pregnant, have a heart or kidney condition, or have had recent abdominal surgery before booking.
Questions people ask
Which one is better for bloating?
The TummyTox spends its whole 45 minutes on the abdomen and flanks, so it is the focused choice for bloating. See your doctor about bloating that is new, persistent or comes with pain, weight loss or changes in your bowel habits.
Is the TummyTox the same as the abdominal part of the Full BodyTox?
It is the same style of Brazilian work, given more time on one area. The Full BodyTox spreads 90 minutes across the whole body and includes the infrared pod; the TummyTox stays on the abdomen and flanks for 45 minutes.
Should I eat before a TummyTox?
Avoid a heavy meal for an hour or so beforehand, since the work is directly over your stomach. Arriving having eaten lightly is ideal.
Do I have to use the infrared cocoon?
No. A 20-minute session is included with the Full BodyTox and is a $25 add-on with the TummyTox, and you can skip it. Skip it altogether if you are pregnant, trying to conceive, unwell, or heat intolerant.
Can I upgrade from a TummyTox to a Full BodyTox later?
Yes. Many people try the shorter session first to see how their body responds, then book the Full BodyTox next time. Each is a separate booking in Jane, so choose the one you want for that visit.
Is the TummyTox enough before a beach holiday or wedding?
If your concern is mostly a bloated middle, it can be. If your legs and hips also hold fluid, the Full BodyTox covers them in one visit.
