Back Roller Massager
- 200 × 135 mm, curved to the back
- Four toothed rollers working at once
- Curved frame follows the spine instead of bridging it
- Solid urapán (Fraxinus uhdei) — a dense hardwood that holds an edge
Built for the back and hip, where a single-barrel roller has nowhere to sit. Four toothed rollers turning inside a shaped frame work either side of the spine at once — four contact lines instead of one — warming the tissue and supporting circulation. The 50 mm knob adds a point of static pressure when a spot needs holding. Never over the vertebrae.

Four toothed rollers in a frame. Shaped to sit in the curve of a back.
Indicated for
Where this tool earns its place
Not the right tool for
The spine itself. Work either side of it, never on it. Also not for small or thin areas — the frame needs a broad surface underneath it. Not over varicose veins, open wounds or fresh scar tissue.

Technique
How to work with it
- 01
Either side of the spine
Two channels, one each side. Never over the vertebrae.
- 02
Let all four rollers turn
If some stop turning the frame is tilted or the skin is dry. Turning rollers work; stalled ones scrape.
- 03
Upward and outward
From the lower back toward the shoulders, then out toward the armpits where the nodes sit.
- 04
Use the knob sparingly
Static pressure on a tight point, a few seconds, then release. It is a punctuation mark, not the sentence.
Made by hand
We are the workshop, not the middleman
Every KOWÜA tool is turned on our own lathes. We select the timber, cut it, turn it, sand it through progressive grits and finish it by hand. Nothing is bought in and rebranded.
We work with urapán (Fraxinus uhdei) because it is a dense hardwood with a fine closed grain — the surface stays smooth against skin instead of raising fibres after a few washes — and because it takes pressure without splitting.
Buying direct means the price of the factory, custom laser engraving with your clinic’s name, and someone who can actually change the tool if you need a different profile.
Care
Cleaning and sanitising
Never
Do not autoclave, do not soak, do not put it in a dishwasher and do not leave it submerged in disinfectant. Wood is porous — immersion swells the fibre, raises the grain and will crack the piece.
- After each clientWipe off oil residue with a dry or barely damp cloth, while the tool is still warm.
- Disinfect70% alcohol on the surface, then let it air-dry completely.
- StoreDry and flat, away from direct heat and sun.
If the surface ever feels rough, a light pass with fine sandpaper along the grain restores it. That is the advantage of an unvarnished finish: it can be renewed, and there is no coating to chip into a client’s skin.
Before you order
Questions we get
How do I know it is the right size?
It is 200 mm end to end. The working surface is 40 mm. The full specification table is above.
Can I use it on post-surgical clients?
Only with written clearance from the treating surgeon, who alone decides when a patient may progress from gentle manual lymphatic drainage to firmer tooled work. Clearance timelines vary widely between surgeons and between patients, and we publish none. Never on fresh incisions.
Does it need oil?
Yes. A dry tool on dry skin drags and bruises. Any professional massage oil works; ours are formulated to keep slip without soaking into the wood.
How long does the wood last?
With correct care — no immersion, no autoclave — solid urapán lasts years of daily clinic use. Urapán is a dense hardwood, which is why it holds a working edge instead of denting.
Will it mark the skin?
Redness and warmth during a session are expected. Bruising is not — it means too much pressure, or a tool too deep for that tissue. Treatment should never be painful.
Can I get my clinic’s name on it?
Yes. We laser-engrave logos and names from 10 pieces. See wholesale tiers and engraving.
Do you ship outside Colombia?
Yes, worldwide with tracking. For orders of 10 pieces or more we quote freight directly.
Which tool comes next?
Depends what you already have. Our wood therapy tool guide ranks every surface we make by depth and shows where each one belongs in a session.
