Gentle Scar Therapy
“Healing isn’t about acquiring something outside yourself, Healing is about returning to your natural state.” - Elle Louise McBride , Trauma-Informed Havening Techniques Practitioner and NeuroSelf Care expert.
What is Gentle Scar Therapy?
An intuitive and progressive approach to scar tissue treatment, that is noninvasive, using very light/gentle pressure.
Integrative with other manual therapy, such a Manual Lymphatic Drainage, Dynamic Cupping, Myofascial Release and Therapeutic Massage.
A holistic method to encourage the body to heal naturally by increasing circulation, lymphatic flow and the release of local fascial restrictions/ adhesions.
Types of scars we treat with Gentle Scar Therapy
Adhesions, Atrophic, Burns, Contractures, Hypertrophic, Keliod, or Surgical.
