Scar Tissue Release
Release the past. Reclaim your movement.
Scars….Often people don’t realize how the scars can affect their bodies by not only producing and keeping the pain patterns on a site of a scar, but also by triggering unpleasant sensations or pains elsewhere in the body. For example, a C-secion scar may produce back pains.
Another kind of an abdominal scar may produce digestive or hormonal issues, some surgeries in the breast or chest area could be responsible for shoulder pain, a bunion surgery scar may trigger lingering numbness in the feet. Many people keep emotions being trapped in their bodies after surgeries or traumas. Some people say they don’t feel the same as they were before the surgery.

Scar Tissue Release Technique helps people to get rid of these unpleasant sensations or pains that frequently linger for a long time after a surgery or trauma. The trapped emotions may be processed and released with the help of the Scar Tissue Release Technique too.

Scarwork is a gentle, massage-like therapy that focuses on scar tissue from surgery, injuries, or trauma. Scars can create tightness, limit flexibility, cause pain, or lead to unusual sensations in the area — and sometimes even in other parts of the body — because they affect muscles, nerves, blood flow, and overall circulation.
During scar therapy, the practitioner uses gentle finger techniques on and around the scar to soften the tissue, improve mobility, and reduce discomfort. The treatment is not painful; many clients describe it as soothing and relieving.

"I’d been wanting to try Indian Head Massage and was happy to get in quickly with Yuliana. She has such a friendly and calming vibe, and the session left me feeling really relaxed — just what I needed. It helped clear my head, ease scalp tension, and loosen up my neck. I’ll definitely be back, and I’m curious to try Bowen Therapy too."
