After a wonderful summer with my boys (and seeing my youngest off to school! 🥹), I’m now back to normal clinic hours!

This first week back has been full of variety in the scars I’ve treated, from a keloid heart surgery incision with a tricky drain site, to axilla and shoulder pain after breast reconstruction, caesarean scars, cording post-mastectomy, and even a 30-year-old bowel scar.

Each scar tells a story, and it’s amazing to see the difference Scar Work can make. Stay tuned, I’ll be sharing more about these cases soon.

This client came to clinic with a heart surgery scar from 40 years ago, originally done when she was just 4 years old. Although it had become her norm, she felt it was contributing to restrictions in movement.

On assessment, the scar was found to be creating fascial restrictions and limiting some shoulder range of motion. Using scar work techniques, we were able to soften the scar and release surrounding tissues.

Scar therapy can make a difference no matter how old the scar is 💜

What Is Scar Therapy? ✨
Scar therapy is a gentle, hands-on treatment that helps reduce restrictions, improve mobility, and restore balance to the body after surgery, injury, or trauma. It’s not just about appearance, it’s about how your body feels and functions.

Whether it's a C-section, joint surgery, accident, or even medical devices like insulin pumps, scar therapy can ease discomfort, soften adhesions, and improve quality of life.

One session. Big difference.
This C-section scar had been raised and lumpy since 2021 but after just one Scar Work session, it became noticeably flatter, softer, and regained sensation. 💜

Scar therapy isn’t just about appearances, it’s about movement, comfort, and feeling like you again.

If you’re dealing with scar tightness, numbness or discomfort (even years later), Scar Work might be the gentle solution you didn’t know you needed.

Got a Scar? Protect it in the Sun! ☀️

Scar tissue is super sensitive to UV rays, even older scars.

Without protection sun can cause:
Darkening
Discolouration
Slower healing

Here's how to keep your scar safe:
Cover it with clothing or a hat
Use SPF 30+ (Reapply every 2 hours)
Avoid strong sun between 10 - 4
Be extra careful in the first 12 - 18 months

Sometimes it’s not obvious that your scar is affecting your body, until we start to look a little deeper.

This client came to me with hip and foot pain and wanted to get back into regular exercise. While her scar didn’t feel tight to her, it was clearly being pulled to the right, creating imbalance and tension through one side of her body.

After working on the scar, she felt much freer through her hips and is now hopeful to progress her running without discomfort.

If you’re experiencing pain or restriction and have a history of surgery, scar therapy might help unlock what’s holding you back.

✨ “I hadn’t realised how much I needed it until I went.” ✨

After her second C-section, this client came to me for scar work therapy and experienced a huge shift, not just physically, but emotionally too.

Scar tissue from her first section had caused adhesions, making her second recovery more complicated. After treatment, she felt lighter, more mobile, and like her organs were finally where they should be.

We often learn to live with discomfort, but we don’t have to. Scar therapy can make a real difference. 💜

If you’re not feeling quite back to normal after surgery, book a session and feel the change for yourself.

Scar Work after cancer surgery can make a huge difference, not just in how the scar feels, but how the body moves.

This client had experienced swelling and restricted neck movement following partial tongue removal. After just one session, they felt an improvement in neck mobility.

Scar Work helps soften tissue, reduce restriction, and support recovery both physically and emotionally. I’m so grateful to work with clients in these moments of healing.

If you're recovering from surgery and want to explore options beyond the hospital pathway, Scar Work might be worth considering.
