What Is Wood Therapy?
Wood Therapy is a holistic body sculpting technique that uses ergonomically designed wooden tools to stimulate the lymphatic system, break down fat deposits, and improve body contours without surgery or downtime.
The Origins of Maderoterapia
Originally developed in South America and rooted in Eastern medicine, Maderoterapia has evolved into a modern treatment combining rhythmic massage and natural materials to promote detoxification, cellulite reduction, and muscular relaxation.
Who Is a Good Candidate?
- Reduce stubborn cellulite
- Sculpt and contour areas like thighs, abdomen, arms, and back
- Improve lymphatic flow and reduce bloating
- Enhance skin tone and elasticity
- Support recovery from other body treatments
