Jo Collins - Sana Soft Tissue Therapy

Jo Collins - Sana Soft Tissue Therapy Pain is the body’s way of telling you something is wrong.

I'm a fully qualified and insured Soft Tissue Therapist with a Level 5 Professional diploma in Soft Tissue Therapy from London School of Sports Massage (LSSM) and I also specialise in ScarWork Therapy. Deep soft tissue massage is a treatment used to address a specific problem or dysfunction usually caused by one of the following;

Postural and structural imbalance
Occupationally related – caused by repetitive work
Emotional stress
Overuse injury from training
Medical (pre/post-surgery, a chronic condition or physical disability).

​The benefits of soft tissue massage from a highly qualified therapist are far reaching. If done correctly massaging soft tissue will increase blood flow to the muscles and move waste products that often get stuck in sore tight muscles. This restorative process allows muscles to relax, reset themselves and allows the body to repair more quickly. The effect of this will allow stiff joints to move more freely with less pain aiding flexibility and improving mobility. However, not only can it dramatically change your physical state the improvements you gain can have a significant knock-on effect to your general well-being and state-of-mind.

It’s so true! Your scar will almost always have influence in issues of pain, restriction or disconnection which is why I’ve trained with Jan and Sharon to specialise in ScarWork and bring it together with the holistic, fascial approach I take to solving your pain and movement issues.

Any scar may look fine on top; it’s what’s happening underneath that matters.

Adhesions may form and pull joints and bones out of position. If you had an infection on the left side of the scar, this could contribute to a restriction in the left hip. If you carried your baby on the left hip, the fascia will probably have densified; that restriction can feed into the scar under the skin and cause more problems.

With Sharon Wheeler’s ScarWork, we work on the scar, but then it is ideal if the therapist is able to follow up with fascia work to clear the patterning. Once this is done, because the fascia connects every structure inside you, the internal balance of the whole body, not just local to the scar, starts to be restored, improving mobility and functionality.

A scar is rarely just a scar!
