8 Benefits of Wood Therapy or Maderoterapia

Wood Therapy is an amazing, all-natural, and safe massage technique that can reshape and tone the body. But it does even more. The practitioner should be a Licensed Massage Therapist, Nurse, Physical Therapist, or other regulated professional, who uses wooden instruments in a specific way to affect skin, fat, and tissue.

Wood Therapy:

• Breaks down fat and cellulite (pockets of fat just below the skin)

• Reshapes the body

• Promotes body cleansing

• Promotes lymphatic drainage and elimination of adipose tissue (fat)

• Improves skin tone and elasticity

• Relieves stress and promotes relaxation

• Firms thighs, butt, tummy, arms, and back

• Stimulates blood circulation

Breaks Down Cellulite

It can help reduce the appearance of cellulite by breaking down the fatty deposits under the skin. So this therapy helps the superficial fat, not the deep visceral fat that surrounds the organs of the body.

Improving Lymphatic Drainage and Blood Circulation

By rolling, sculpting, and shaping the adipose tissue is broken down which allows the lymphatic system to increase its circulation. The faster the lymph moves the faster it processes the extra fat cells and can be eliminated from the body. When both lymphatic system circulation and blood circulation are increased, the body is more efficient at taking care of bloating and toxins.

Relieving Stress

All massage is beneficial for stress relief. We live in a constant state of alertness in which the body produces more cortisol and epinephrine. Both hormones in excess can help us hold onto fat. Wood therapy can be relaxing and rejuvenating. The therapy’s gentle, rhythmic movements can promote a sense of calm and well-being, leading to lower stress and anxiety levels.
