What is Scar Tissue Massage?
With Scar Tissue Massage we are working with the fascia, searching out restrictions to soften the tissues by increasing the fluid in the area. The aim is to reintegrate the scarred area within the body, by normalising sensations, reducing pain, improving nervous system firing and aiding lymphatic drainage and flow.
When scars form collagen is laid down haphazardly, scar tissue massage uses very gentle techniques to help organise the fibres in a more orderly and evenly spaced manner, thus assisting with circulation, hydration and function of the tissue.
What Scar tissue massage is NOT
- NOT releasing scar tissue
- NOT breaking up scar tissue
- NOT getting rid of scar tissue
- NOT destroying scar tissue
- NOT painful
Why do I use gentle pain-free techniques
Research has shown that techniques such as cross-fibre friction cause inflammation, the body then responds to this by laying down more fibrous tissue, the very thing the treatment is trying to reduce.
