Wooden Back Massagers — Calm, Even Pressure for Your Back

Tuuli Back Massagers are natural, quiet tools crafted from European beechwood. Each profile is shaped for smooth glide, confident grip and short routines you can repeat for shoulders, scapula area and mid-back — no batteries, no noise.

Shop the back range

• Wooden Back Massager with Rope — reach mid-back and shoulder blades with guided angles; you control pressure and pace from either side.
• Curved Wooden Massage Roller — 40 cm — the curve improves surface contact over rounded areas like upper back and lats.
• Disk Wooden Massage Roller — 40 cm — compact disks keep contact stable along scapular borders and rib lines.
• Ball Wooden Massage Roller — 40 cm — smooth spheres provide steady pressure with a cushioned rolling feel on paraspinals.
• Flexi Wooden Massage Roller — flexible core adapts to back contours for long, even passes across erectors and lower traps.
• Wooden Handheld Massager — palm-size control for edges around shoulder blades and along the lower neck line (avoid direct pressure on the spine).

Why beechwood for back work?

• Fine, uniform grain: sands to a silky, skin-friendly finish that glides without snagging on shirts or skin.
• Dense & durable: hardwood stability resists warping with simple care; nothing to charge or replace.
• Comfort & control: warm touch and quiet operation help you keep pressure steady while you focus on feel.
• Low maintenance: sealed smooth surface; an occasional thin coat of neutral oil keeps the finish conditioned.

Wood vs. foam/plastic/silicone

Wooden hand tools excel at precise, hand-guided pressure while seated or standing — perfect for scapular borders and mid-back lines. Foam rollers use body weight on the floor and cover larger areas but are less portable. Plastic/silicone tools can feel slicker or colder; many users prefer wood’s warm grip for repeatable routines. Plenty of people keep both a wooden hand tool and a foam roller for different situations.

How to use (quick start)

1. Prep: light, breathable clothing or clean, dry skin. A tiny amount of neutral oil is optional for longer strokes (avoid getting handles oily).
2. Technique: use light–moderate pressure. Guide long, single-direction strokes along paraspinals and lats; use short, precise passes around shoulder blades. Avoid direct pressure on the spine and bony points.
3. Time: begin with 5–10 minutes per area, several days per week. You should feel relief, not pain. Ease off if tenderness lingers.

Well-being tools only — not medical devices. If you’re pregnant, recently injured or have circulatory/nerve issues, consult a qualified professional before use.

Two sample routines

Desk break (6–8 minutes)

1. 1–2 min with the Rope Back Massager across mid-back (light tension on ropes, slow pace).
2. 2–3 min with the Curved Roller along lats and rear delts (long passes).
3. 1–2 min with the Handheld Roller tracing scapular edges (short, precise strokes).

Evening unwind (8–10 minutes)

1. 2–3 min with the Flexi Roller from lower to upper back (even pressure).
2. 2–3 min with the Disk Roller along the inside of shoulder blades.
3. 1–2 min with the Ball Roller on paraspinals (glide, don’t press on the spine).

Care & maintenance

• Wipe after use with a damp cloth; add a drop of mild soap if needed. Do not soak or machine-wash.
• Dry thoroughly and store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat.
• Occasionally apply a thin layer of neutral mineral oil to keep the wood conditioned.
• Inspect for cracks or roughness; pause use until refinished or replaced.

How to choose your first back massager

• Self-reach, easy angle control: start with the Back Massager with Rope.
• Better contact on curves: choose the Curved Roller for shoulders and lats.
• Stable edge work: pick the Disk Roller for scapular borders.
• Broad, even strokes: the Flexi Roller adapts to back contours.
• Spot precision: add the Handheld Roller for small areas.
