A clearly visible scar no longer has to remind you every day of a cesarean section, a painful injury or a previous surgery. Proper and early therapy at the NZOZ Your Doctor Rehabilitation Studio allows for significant improvement in both the appearance and functionality of scar tissue. Thanks to modern treatment methods such as Scarwork, Integrative Scar Therapy and Instrumental Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM), patients can experience increased elasticity, mobility and aesthetics of scars, which is crucial for improving well-being and returning to full health.

Scarwork is a manual technique that focuses on the gentle manipulation of scar tissue and surrounding tissues to release restrictions and improve mobility. Developed by Sharon Wheeler, the method engages deeper tissues, facilitating the release of restrictions in the scar and surrounding areas. In turn, IASTM uses specialized tools to target scar tissue, stimulating regenerative processes. Integrative Scar Therapy is a treatment method that improves the aesthetics of the skin and aims to eliminate scar-related discomforts. All the methods we use offer new possibilities in terms of improving the function and elasticity of tissue and the aesthetics of scars, which has a direct impact on improving the quality of life of patients.

Scar therapy should be started at the right time – usually a few weeks after the injury or surgery, when the tissue has healed sufficiently. However, even older scars can benefit from such intervention, which opens the way for improvement for those with long-term limitations. Patients undergoing these therapies can expect a number of benefits, including improved range of motion, reduced pain and improved appearance of the scar. Increased quality of life is also important. Such a holistic approach to treatment and rehabilitation emphasizes the importance of both the physical and mental aspects of health after injuries and surgeries.
