C-section scars tell the powerful story of childbirth, and it's important to give them the tender care they deserve to help you feel more comfortable and self-assured. I will be your caring guide through postnatal recovery. Trained by leading experts in women's health, I am dedicated to providing expertise, empathy warmth, and support for your postnatal journey.
C-Section Scar Massage
As a women's health practitioner specialising in women's reproductive health, I place great importance on C-section Scar Massage as an essential component of post-surgery recovery. We address not just the adhesions over the incision itself, above the scar is just as important to improve the flexibility of the scar and the surrounding tissue. The belly is also gently worked to minimise swelling encouraging a deeper connection to love your new postpartum body and all it has been through - growing and delivering your beloved baby. I am committed to offering individualised care to help my patients restore the connection between their mind and body and to improve the visibility of their scars.
What is C-Section Scar Massage?
Why You Need Scar Therapy
Restricted Movement: Your scar may be connected to surrounding tissues, possibly limiting your range of motion and flexibility.
Hypersensitivity: If you're experiencing pain, itching, numbness, or discomfort around your scar, I can provide effective treatment to alleviate these symptoms. Our therapy can help loosen and release tight scar tissue, reducing discomfort.
Visible Overhang: Scar therapy is designed to reduce the build-up of scar tissue, softening, and improving the appearance of your abdomen.
C-Section therapy can benefit both new and old scar tissue, keeping your organs free of scar tissue and allowing them to move independently from one another.
I believe that gentle therapeutic touch can be a powerful way to aid in emotional recovery.

In our session, we'll take the time to discuss how your scar is affecting you. We'll conduct a full medical history review, scar assessment, provide home care advice, and offer scar therapy treatment to promote healthy scar formation for both new and old scars. I use a combination of scar massage, abdominal massage, and breathing and pelvic floor exercises to support your healing and recovery.

Imagine feeling more relaxed with your C-section scar, connected to your lower half once again, and experiencing a body that moves freely. I'm here to help reduce adhesions, improve scar flexibility, and enhance your overall well-being through C-section scar massage.

I recommend a minimum of 3 to 6 sessions for optimal results. Scar therapy takes time, but the outcomes are worthwhile.
Cesarean Scar Massage Therapy
Since my c-section I have been struggling with pelvic pain every day. The discomfort was getting unbearable as my scar rubbed against my clothing. I just wanted to enjoy my time with my son without being in pain. After my first c-section massage, I noticed an immediate improvement in my scar. It felt less tight and more comfortable. After having three more sessions with Gemma my pelvic pain has disappeared, my scar looks less inflamed, and my overhang has softened. This treatment has been a great support in my recovery, and I can't thank Gemma enough for helping me heal.
