C-Section: More Than Just a Skin Cut
Did you know a Caesarean section involves stitching up to 7 layers of tissue?
A C-section is a complex surgery going layer by layer through your body to safely bring your baby into the world. Here’s what’s typically stitched back:
Skin
Fat tissue
Fascia (connective tissue)
Muscle (usually separated, not cut)
Peritoneum (abdominal lining)
Uterus
(Sometimes) Inner linings like the peritoneum again
Your body performs a miracle — intense, powerful, and life-giving.
This is why scar care matters.
It’s not just about appearance. Scar tissue affects how you move, how you feel emotionally, and even your future pregnancies.
Caring for your scar—whether through physiotherapy or osteopathy—is not vanity. It’s healing.
Give your body the same grace and love it gave to your baby.
Your scar is a story of strength, not shame.
