Scar Tissue Release
Scars are more than skin deep—they can significantly affect how your body feels, moves and functions. Whether large or small, scars may contribute to various physical challenges. Beyond their physical effects, scars may also carry emotional weight, reminding us of the traumatic events that caused them. They might feel uncomfortable, appear unsightly, or even impact our emotional well-being.
How Scars affect the body
Scars can create more imbalances throughout the body than you might realise:
Pain & Sensitivity
Some scars remain painful, tender, sensitive or even numb due to nerve involvement.
Postural & Muscular Imbalances
The body often compensates for restrictions caused by scar tissue, which may lead to imbalances, weakness, tension, or pain in seemingly unrelated areas.
Disrupted Energy Flow
Scars can interfere with the body’s natural energy flow, leading to blockages and imbalances.
Restricted Fascia Movement
Scar tissue is less flexible than normal tissue, which may cause tightness, discomfort, and reduced mobility.
Reduced Blood and Lymph Flow
Restricted blood and lymph flow can slow down the healing process, making the scar tissue weaker, stiffer, and less elastic.
Without proper circulation:
- The tissue may heal more slowly due to reduced oxygen and nutrient delivery.
- Stiffness and tightness may increase, limiting flexibility and causing discomfort.
- The body’s ability to flush out toxins and excess fluids may be compromised, increasing swelling or prolonging inflammation.
- Energy flow may be disrupted, contributing to fatigue, tension, or pain.
What can we do about it?
Fortunately, you don’t have to live with these issues. With the right approach, scars can be treated to improve flexibility, appearance, reduce sensitivity, and support your body’s natural healing.
