Get answers to common questions about Wood Therapy.

Yes. Wood Therapy is generally safe for most skin types and body areas when performed by trained therapists. Avoid treatment on open wounds, active infections, or severe inflammation; a consultation will confirm suitability and any modifications.

Many clients notice improvements after 3-6 sessions, though optimal contouring often requires 6-12 treatments depending on goals, body area, and lifestyle. Your therapist will create a personalized plan and suggest maintenance sessions.

Clients often feel firm pressure and mild discomfort rather than sharp pain. Tenderness or slight soreness can occur but usually resolves within 24-48 hours. Therapists adjust intensity for comfort and provide aftercare guidance.

Side effects are minimal and may include temporary redness, light bruising, or soreness. There is little to no downtime, but we recommend avoiding intense exercise for 24-48 hours and following post-care instructions.

Individuals with active infections, deep vein thrombosis, severe varicose veins, recent surgery, certain chronic illnesses, or those in early pregnancy should avoid treatment. Always disclose medical history during your consultation.

Arrive well hydrated, avoid heavy meals and alcohol, and wear comfortable clothing. Tell your therapist about sensitivities. After treatment expect temporary warmth or redness; drink fluids, follow aftercare, and schedule recommended follow-ups.
