The wooden massage rolling wheel is valued in TCM for its ability to stimulate meridians, improve circulation, relax muscles, and restore balance of qi and blood. It’s simple, non- invasive, and can be used both professionally in clinics and at home for self-care.
How it’s used in TCM Clinics
1. Meridian Therapy
◦ Rolled along the arms, legs, back, or torso following meridian lines to balance qi and blood.
◦ Commonly used on the Bladder meridian on the back, Stomach meridian on the legs, and Large Intestine meridian on the arms.
2. Acupoint Stimulation
◦ Targeted rolling on specific acupoints (e.g., ST36 Zusanli for immunity, LI4 Hegu for pain relief, SP6 Sanyinjiao for digestion and reproductive health).
3. Complement to Other Therapies
◦ Often combined with cupping, gua sha, tuina massage, or acupuncture.
◦ Rolling first can warm up tissues, making other therapies more effective.
5. Post-Treatment Self-Care
◦ Patients may be shown how to use a roller at home to extend the benefits of in-clinic therapy.
The Wooden Wheel can be easily washed or alternatively use over a Tunia cloth.
