Do you experience problems with tight, painful or uncomfortable tissues, after undergoing surgery, trauma or injury?

Have you tried other forms of treatment and you don’t feel like it has really helped very much?

Scars unfortunately are like the tip of the iceberg, what you see is just part of the story. Would you believe that a scar in your abdomen could contribute to pain in the back, shoulders or even your jaw?

It is important that your body is assessed as a whole, and your emotional feelings are also considered in the treatment process. As you know, scars impact upon how you feel both physically and psychologically; after all the mind and body are inextricably linked.

Be prepared to feel free of the trauma and hurt, from the events that surrounded how you experienced your scar, in a gentle and supportive way.

Tracey is trained in 3 different types of scar tissue treatment and will create a treatment to suit your particular needs, using McLoughlin scar tissue release ®, Blend scar therapy ®, Burrell Education scar immersion techniques, as well as Aromatherapy.

Burrell Education C-section, Hystorectomy and female abdominal scar immersion

A whole-body approach is used to release restrictions within the myofascial network throughout the body; to create tissue that is able to move with ease, without pain, discomfort or upset.
The aim is for tissues to slide and glide, for you to be able to breathe without restriction and to reconnect with your body again.

How can Aromatherapy help my scar?

There are oils which have scientifically proven benefits, to aid tissue repair after scarring, or can assist with nerve repair and pain relief. They can also benefit you psychologically in many ways. A scar tissue blend can be created to meet your specific needs, to nurture, moisturise and aid repair.
