Facial Wood Therapy Training (Maderoterapia)
In-Person Practical + Online Theory
Facial Wood Therapy, also known as Maderoterapia, is a natural, non-invasive facial massage technique performed using specially designed wooden tools. Each tool has a unique shape and purpose, allowing the therapist to work precisely across different areas of the face to stimulate circulation, lymphatic drainage, and muscular tone.
This treatment focuses on facial sculpting, detoxification, and relaxation, making it a popular choice within holistic, beauty, and advanced facial practices.
Benefits of Facial Wood Therapy
Facial Wood Therapy may help to:
Improve facial contour and definition
Reduce the appearance of puffiness and fluid retention
Support lymphatic drainage and toxin elimination
Improve skin tone and circulation
Assist relaxation and muscle tension release
Support facial balance following aesthetic treatments (non-medical support only)
This treatment is non-invasive, requires no downtime, and can be offered as a standalone facial or combined with other skin and wellness treatments.
Note: This training does not qualify therapists to perform or reverse injectable treatments. Facial Wood Therapy may be used as a complementary wellness technique only.
