At S-Physiotherapy, we understand that healing from a Caesarean section is more than skin-deep. Our specialized C-section scar therapy focuses on restoring mobility, reducing discomfort, and supporting your long-term recovery—so you can feel stronger, freer, and more connected to your body.
Why Scar Therapy Matters
C-section scars can sometimes lead to:
- Tightness or pulling sensations
- Pain, numbness, or hypersensitivity
- Limited movement or posture changes
- Underlying adhesions affecting core or pelvic floor function
With targeted therapy, we help reduce these issues and promote optimal healing.
Advanced Technology: LymphaTouch®
At S-Physiotherapy, we use some of the best equipment available, including the LymphaTouch® machine—a state-of-the-art therapy tool that uses negative pressure and mechanical vibration to:
- Improve lymphatic drainage
- Reduce swelling and tightness
- Enhance scar mobility
- Boost circulation to aid tissue recovery
This gentle, non-invasive technology is especially effective for early scar management and long-term healing, making it a powerful addition to your postnatal care.
Treatment
We offer a holistic, hands-on approach tailored to your stage of recovery:
- Manual Scar Mobilization: To break down adhesions and improve flexibility
- Desensitization Therapy: To reduce nerve sensitivity around the scar
- Myofascial Release: To address deeper tissue restrictions
- Postnatal Exercise & Pilates: To rebuild core strength and support function
When Can You Start?
Treatment can usually begin from 6 weeks postpartum, once the scar has healed. Whether your C-section was recent or several years ago, scar therapy can still be highly effective.
