hot water/steam is USUALLY the method used... you could try placing effected area above boiling kettle and see if it will raise them out enough to be sanded back n refinished....
75/15/10 black powder matters
remove all wood oil, wet tea towel and clothes iron plus allot of patience. post some pictures of the wood
Yup what they said. Warm water, steam and heat
You will have to fully refinish the wood after steaming as it will ruin your finish best to remove the finish before steaming anyway
As muzza said check you tube.
Not that hard just time consuming.
Dents will come out missing wood from gouges will not.
Remove original finish keeping clear of chequering.
I have used piece of glass as a scraper successfully on factory finish.
Steam then sand lightly, take your time.
Refinish quite satisfying.
thanks will look at you tube etc

Life is natures way of keeping meat fresh
Cotton cloth and a steam iron is what I use for steaming dents out of timber. Only once made the mistake of using microfleece when in a hurry
