Six Weeks To See Change

Wood therapy works on consistency — six visits in six weeks is the floor.

i.
Weeks 1 – 3
Weekly. The tissue learns the new pattern. Expect some bruising early on — it fades as the tissue adapts.
3 Sessions
ii.
Weeks 4 – 6
Continue weekly. Surface texture begins to visibly refine. Cellulite dimpling softens.
3 Sessions
iii.
Weeks 7 – 12
Reassess. Most clients pause at the six-week mark — many continue inside the 90-minute Body Sculpting session.
Optional
iv.
Months 4+
Maintenance every three to four weeks holds the result for most clients.

Common Questions

Wood Therapy, Answered

Firm but not painful. The pressure is steady, not sharp. Most clients describe it as a deep, satisfying sensation.
No modality permanently eliminates cellulite. Wood therapy reduces its visibility substantially when performed consistently.
Hands-only application means we can adjust pressure, angle, and rhythm in real time. Machines can't — and the difference shows by week four.
Yes — plan on it. Wood therapy is vigorous work, and bruising is a normal part of the process. It fades within a few days and lessens as your tissue adapts across the series.
