C-section scar recovery
Feel more comfortable in your body again.
After a C-section, your scar may feel tight, numb, tender or like it's pulling, sometimes long after your baby was born.
You may also notice changes to the way your scar looks or find that movement and exercise feel uncomfortable.
Scar Therapy can help improve comfort and movement around your scar and support you as your body recovers.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR C-SECTION SCAR
Your body has been through a lot
A C-section involves healing through several layers of tissue, and every person's body will recover differently.
As your scar heals, scar tissue can contribute to feelings of tightness, pulling, numbness or sensitivity.
Changes to the surrounding tissues and abdominal strength can also affect how the area feels and moves.
There's no time limit on wanting to feel better.
"I have been going to Rural Rehab for scar therapy, and was put at ease straight away. Beth was so gentle. The difference it makes after each visit is so noticeable. They have so much knowledge and inform me every step of the way what to expect."
