Thinking about scar therapy after a C-section?

Let’s keep it simple. We can begin with 3 treatments spaced over 3 to 8 weeks.

We can assess at the end of your 3rd treatment and decide whether you may need additional sessions.

Plus, I’ll give you easy home care advice so you can take care of your scar between sessions. You’re not alone in this journey—let’s do it together!

If you have any questions - please dm me 😊

How soon can i have Scar Therapy?

The answer is as soon as your incisions have closed up and there are no scabs!
Usually from about 6 weeks post surgery.

This picture shows a 10 month old C-Section scar. The top picture is before the first treatment. Bottom picture is after the 3rd treatment. These are 3 weeks apart.

The real significance for this client is after her first treatment she started regaining sensation to her scar and surrounding areas. And a few days later after going through a healing response, she regained full sensation.

The following 2 treatments focused on lifting and softening the scar.

If you have any questions or would like to book a scar therapy treatment, please get in touch direct 🌟

🌟 CARLISLE'S FIRST RESTORE SCAR THERAPY SPECIALIST 🌟

I find scars so fascinating… I genuinely love them.

They come in all shapes and sizes, each one carrying its own story. To me, they’re imperfectly beautiful.

But I also know that not everyone feels that way.

For some, scars can bring self-consciousness, discomfort, tightness, restriction or sensitivity.
And for many, they can hold emotional weight too.

That’s why I’m so excited to tell you that i have been working hard in the background, and I am now Carlisle’s very first RESTORE Scar Therapy Specialist 🤍

Honestly, I cannot wait to start working with more of you and supporting your healing journey 🌟

What is scar therapy?

A specialised, hands-on treatment designed to improve:

• Scar quality & appearance
• Movement & function
• Sensation & sensitivity
• Overall comfort in your body

Who can benefit?

If you have a scar… this is for you:

• Old scars
• New scars
• Orthopaedic surgery
• Cosmetic surgery
• C-section or abdominal surgery
• Injury scars
• Oncology-related scars
• Burn scars
• Skin graft scars

I am also really excited to collaborate with Oracle Clinics - specifically with their post pregnancy services and support.

Many of their patients have expressed excitement already in having scar treatment for their beautiful C- Sections, alongside their Oracle post pregnancy and womens health treatments.

Every scar tells a story… but it doesn’t have to limit you.

If you’re curious about how scar therapy could help you, feel free to drop me a message 🤍

Post-Surgical Recovery | Vein Procedures

At CL Body Therapy, we can support your recovery following vein surgery with clinically informed, tailored care—working under the same roof as leading vascular specialists such as UK Vein Care at Oracle Clinics.

Vein procedures, including varicose vein treatments, ablation, and sclerotherapy, are typically minimally invasive. However, they still create a natural inflammatory response within the tissues, often resulting in swelling, bruising, tenderness, and areas of firmness during the healing process.

Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) is a gentle, specialised technique that supports the lymphatic system during this recovery phase.

Benefits may include:
• Reduction in post-operative swelling and fluid retention
• Support in resolving bruising more efficiently
• Promotion of tissue healing and repair
• Reduction in fibrosis and tissue congestion
• Relief from heaviness, tightness, and discomfort in the legs

By encouraging lymphatic flow and reducing inflammation, MLD can help to optimise healing and enhance overall recovery outcomes.

All treatments at CL Body Therapy are tailored to your individual needs, stage of healing, and clinical presentation—supporting you every step of your recovery.

To find out more, please get in touch.

WILD GARLIC LEAVES!! 🌿

These fresh spring greens are popping up everywhere right now… and they’re not just tasty – they’re seriously good for you too.

Wild garlic (especially the young baby leaves) is:

✨ Naturally antibacterial & supports your immune system
✨ Great for digestion and gut health
✨ Helps reduce inflammation
✨ Supports heart health and circulation
✨ Packed with vitamins A & C

And if you deal with aches and pains… this little plant can help there too 👇

Its natural anti-inflammatory properties can support the body in calming sore joints and muscles, while improved circulation helps bring fresh oxygen and nutrients to areas that need healing. Think of it as gentle, natural support from the inside out.

Plus… that soft garlicky flavour is much milder than regular garlic – perfect for salads, pestos, soups, or sprinkled fresh over your meals 🌱

There’s something special about eating what’s growing around you, in season… your body just gets it.

If you’re out walking, keep an eye (and nose 👀👃) out for it… but always be 100% sure you’ve identified it correctly before picking.
Nature really does provide 💚

While I work with fascia, lymphatics and soft tissues...

Raven works with the nervous system 💫

Healing isn’t only about therapist technique..

It’s environment. It’s connection. It’s a sense of security- without judgement.

A therapy dog’s cuddle can shift the nervous system into rest and repair — the very state the body needs to recover.

Regulated bodies heal better.

The power of a therapy dog cuddle can be truly significant 🌟

Healing flows when you feel calm and taken care of 🐾

(Therapy dog cuddles during your treatment are optional, and where appropriate depending on what treatment you are receiving- Raven is never offended if you say no)
