General surgical scars, including abdominal, laparoscopic, orthopaedic and spinal procedures, can sometimes lead to tightness, sensitivity or restricted movement. Scar therapy focuses on improving mobility, reducing discomfort and supporting functional recovery so you can move with greater ease and confidence.
Cancer treatment often involves complex surgery that can affect scar tissue, posture and overall function. We provide sensitive, trauma-informed scar therapy following procedures such as mastectomy, reconstruction or lymph node removal, helping to improve mobility, cording, comfort and confidence during recovery.
A Caesarean birth is major abdominal surgery, and scar tissue can impact core strength, pelvic health and movement. Specialist assessment and gentle scar therapy support healing, improve abdominal function and help restore confidence in your postnatal recovery.
Scars following accidents or injury may cause tightness, altered sensation or movement restriction. Treatment aims to improve tissue mobility, reduce sensitivity and support comfortable, functional use of the affected area.
Burn scars can affect skin elasticity, sensitivity and movement. Scar therapy focuses on improving tissue flexibility, managing discomfort and supporting long-term function while respecting the complexity of burn recovery.
Children and young people may also experience scar tightness or sensitivity following surgery or injury. Gentle, age-appropriate assessment and treatment can support comfortable movement, healthy development and confidence in daily activities.
