Rings Roller
- 430 mm, 55 mm rings
- Deep rounded rings — pressure without an edge
- Between the smooth and the toothed rollers
- Solid urapán (Fraxinus uhdei) — a dense hardwood that holds an edge
A ringed roller for the abdomen and thighs. The stacked rings break the contact line into repeated ridges, so the tissue is worked rather than simply warmed — but without the bite of cubes or teeth, which is why it suits delicate skin. Its handles give a secure two-handed grip; worked upward and downward, following the contour of the area.

Deep rings. Pressure without an edge.
Indicated for
Where this tool earns its place
Not the right tool for
Opening a cold area, or thin and fragile skin. Also not over bone, varicose veins, open wounds or fresh scar tissue. The rings are deep — on unprepared tissue they are simply uncomfortable.
- The working passMore bite than the Worm on the same footprint.
- Outer thighWhere tissue is dense enough to take a rounded ring.
- Rounded depthPressure without the edge of a cube — less likely to mark.
- 430 mmShorter than the standard roller; better control on a curve.
- After warmingSecond or third tool in the sequence, never the first.
- Post-operative stagesOnly from the point the treating surgeon has cleared in writing.

Technique
How to work with it
- 01
Warm the area first
Deep rings on cold tissue is the most common mistake with this tool. Open with something smooth.
- 02
Prepare the skin
Generous oil. The deeper the ring, the more the surface drags without it.
- 03
Work upward, reading as you go
Toward the nearest nodes. Redness and warmth are expected; a client pulling away is not.
- 04
Then drain
Close with a board or a cup, worked flat and slow toward the nodes.
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 430 mm end to end. The working surface is 55 mm. Handle: 120 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.
