Maderotherapy: wooden tool massage for body contouring
Maderotherapy is a massage technique from Colombia using various wooden tools — rollers, boards, ladles. The instruments allow deep pressure and specific movement patterns on body zones that are harder to work with hands alone.
What happens during maderotherapy
The therapist uses various wooden instruments to apply pressure, rolling and kneading movements to thighs, abdomen, glutes or arms. The treatment is firm and targeted — not gentle wellness. Oil or cream is used for gliding.
- Wooden rollers, boards and ladles for different body zones
- Firm pressure — not suitable for relaxation-seekers
- Clothing: undress for the areas being treated
