Scar Therapy

Sharon Wheeler's ScarWork Method (TM) consists of gentle and effective manual and mobilization techniques which integrate scar tissue into the surrounding fascial web. This method affects the texture and quality of scar tissue, improving symptoms resulting from all types of surgeries, traumas or burns. Scar tissue may cause pain, pulling, itching, numbness, limited range motion, emotional distress and other symptoms. Not just at the site of the scar, but other areas of your body as well.

Breast, Chest and Oncology Care

This session is designed to support post-surgical recovery by improving mobility and reducing pain and swelling once healing is complete. It uses specialized manual therapy techniques including Lymphatic Drainage, Scar Therapy, Myofascial Release and Circulatory Massage, which are tailored to individual recovery needs. This session is also recommended before surgery to promote healthy breast tissue which aids in better surgical outcomes, and is beneficial for overall breast health.

Myofascial Release

John Barnes Myofascial Release is a specialized stretching technique that involves applying gentle sustained pressure into the connective tissue restrictions to eliminate pain and restore motion. Uneven stress can be transmitted through the fascia to other parts of the body, causing pain and a variety of other symptoms in areas you may not expect. Myofascial Release treats these symptoms by releasing the uneven tightness in injured fascia.
