Regain comfort and mobility after surgery.
Post-surgical massage is specifically designed for use following any surgical procedure. It gently works on the scar, helps restore flexibility and mobility to the tissues, and reduces tension or discomfort around the surgical site. This gentle treatment promotes circulation and supports recovery.
Our scar massage therapist
Poor healing can lead to..:
- adherent scars (the skin sticks to the tissue under the skin)
- scars that are too large or irregular
- bulges on the scar
- sagging skin
Massaging a scar helps soften scar tissue and prevent adhesions.
When to have a scar massage
It may be advisable to start massaging the scar to avoid adhesions between 3 and 4 weeks after the operation, unless the pain is acute and requires consultation with a doctor.
This massage can also be performed on an old scar to improve vascularization.
