Wood Therapy (maderotherapy)
What is Wood Therapy?
-
Wood therapy is a massage technique that utilizes wooden, handheld tools, such as rolling pins and vacuum-suction cups. It ranges from light to vigorous strokes. Purportedly, wood therapy is centuries old and originated in Asia.
-
Wood therapy has become extremely popular with its complement to lymphatic massage during the recovery with liposuction, speeding up the recovery, preventing fibrosis, and keeping the client more comfortable by decreasing swelling.
-
Wood therapy offers a wide range of benefits, whether you are recovering from liposuction/plastic surgery, trying to reduce cellulite, stimulate the lymphatic system, or simply wanting to release tight muscles, wood therapy is very beneficial.
Wood Therapy works with the lymphatic system which is not far underneath the skin’s surface. The lymphatic system helps to remove viruses, toxins and bacteria from the body. Wood therapy activates the lymphatic system assisting the body in filtering out the “garbage” and transporting it to the circulatory system so it can be removed from the body by its’ natural elimination system.
Multiple sessions will most likely be required depending on level of cellulite or severity of fibrosis as well as desired appearance and goal. Some people may need 3 – 6 treatments and others may require more. Package discount pricing is also available.
