Healing of Scar Tissue

6/1/2015

People who have had surgery may deal with long-term, residual pain from trigger points in muscles that have been cut, stretched, bruised or otherwise traumatized. These points can send pain to areas well away from the surgical site. In addition, scar tissue can develop adhesions which can also cause complications.

The results of these adhesions may include nerve impingement, pain, numbness, limited range of motion and flexibility, postural misalignment, muscle atrophy, tissue hypoxia and an increase in potential for future injury

In fact, some professionals believe that scar tissue is the root of a majority of physical imbalances. Once the incision is completely healed, you can begin massaging scar tissue. Massage therapists addressing scar tissue early in its development can help minimize any of the preceding secondary scar tissue problems. However, it is never too late to massage old scars either.
