Scar tissue therapy is a type of physical therapy designed to treat scars and the tissue damage that can occur from them. For example, scars caused by surgery, burns, or other injuries can cause pain, stiffness, and decreased range of motion. Scar tissue therapy can help to reduce these symptoms and restore the body’s natural movement and flexibility.
Scar tissue therapy is based on the principles of manual therapy. It involves using massage and other hands-on techniques to break up and loosen the scar tissue. This helps to reduce pain and improve mobility. The therapist may also use stretching, strengthening, and other types of exercises to help improve the tissue’s flexibility and strength.

Scar tissue therapy is often used to treat specific areas of the body. For example, it can be used to treat scar tissue on the neck and shoulders, or on the hips and legs. The therapist will assess the area to determine the best approach for treating the scar.
Overall, a holistic approach to healing recognizes that the mind, body, and spirit are all interconnected and seeks to address each one in order to promote overall health and well-being. By taking a comprehensive approach to healing, we can improve our quality of life and achieve a greater sense of balance and harmony within ourselves.
