Colombian wood therapy is very safe. In fact, it is defined as one of the non-invasive holistic massage therapies.

As with every treatment, the more consistent with wood therapy treatments you are, the longer lasting the results will be. Maintenance is key! It is comparable to going to the gym. The moment you stop exercising, with time your results will fade.

This treatment is performed using wooden instruments and essential oils for the wood to glide on the skin. The treatment is not painful, however for some who are new to the treatment it may feel uncomfortable, this also depends on the area being treated and the amount of pressure being used. Most clients find the treatment relaxing but some may need a few sessions before their body adapts to the stimuli of the wood treatment on their body.

Some side effects include slight redness after treatment and occasional bruising, depending on pressure used and client’s skin sensitivity.
