Myofascial Release Therapy is a targeted manual therapy that focuses on tight scar tissues, surgical adhesions, the surrounding fascia, and soft tissues. Through gentle, precise techniques, the practitioner works with areas of restriction and tension that may develop around a scar following injury, surgery, or other tissue trauma.
Post-surgical scars:
Scars following procedures such as abdominal surgery, caesarean section, orthopaedic surgery, or other surgical interventions.
Restricted scar tissue:
Scars that feel tight, adhered, sensitive, or less mobile than the surrounding skin.
Fascial tension:
Areas where scar tissue may be associated with tightness or restricted movement in surrounding tissues.
Movement-related discomfort:
May support comfortable movement where scar-related tissue restriction is contributing to tension or discomfort.
Myofascial Release Therapy may help improve the mobility of scar tissue and surrounding fascia, reduce distant pain and tightness, and promotes local circulation for healing.
After treatment:
This treatment can be combined with:
Can Myofascial Release Therapy remove scars?
No. The treatment does not remove scar tissue. It focuses on improving the mobility and flexibility of scar tissue and the surrounding fascia, which may help reduce tightness and improve comfort.
How soon after surgery can I receive treatment?
This depends on the type of surgery, wound healing, and individual recovery. Treatment should only begin once the area is sufficiently healed and, where appropriate, cleared by your healthcare provider.
Will the treatment hurt?
The treatment may create sensations of pressure, pulling, stretching, or mild tenderness. It should be performed within a tolerable level of discomfort, with intensity adjusted according to your response.
Can old scars be treated?
Yes. Mature scars may still be assessed for tissue mobility and fascial restriction. Your practitioner will determine whether the treatment is appropriate for the condition of the scar.
How many sessions are needed?
This varies according to the scar’s age, size, location, tissue condition, and individual response to treatment. Your practitioner will recommend a suitable treatment frequency.
