Scarring is the natural way our body repairs itself when tissues are damaged, either by injury, burns,infection or surgery. Often in the case of surgery the surface scarring that is visible can be just the tip of the iceberg, with webs and networks of tough tissue adhering the layers of tissues underneath and impeding movement and causing symptoms such as : 

​

• Pain & discomfort 

• Itchiness 

• Red, raised unsightly scars 

• Hardening or thickening of the scar and surrounding area

• Sensitivity or numbness of the area

​​

​

As scar tissues matures over time these symptoms can often occur years after scarring occurred but there is much that can be done with a RESTORE scar massage therapist . Specialist massage to the scar and the underlying fascia can help with symptoms and whlst we can't make your scar disappear, we can help with :

​

• Less discomfort around your scar
