THE BACK WORX

Scar Work Therapy in Bradenton

After surgery or injury, scar tissue often forms as part of the natural healing process. While scars are normal, they can sometimes cause tightness, discomfort, and limited mobility. Scar Work Therapy is a gentle, hands-on technique that helps soften scar tissue, improve flexibility, and restore natural movement to the affected area. At BackWorx, our therapists specialize in working with post-surgical scars to support both healing and long-term comfort.

What Scar Work Therapy Can Do for You

Scar therapy is designed to reduce restrictions and improve the way your body feels and functions. Patients often notice changes quickly, such as improved comfort, smoother tissue, and increased mobility. Benefits include:

  • Reducing tightness and pulling around surgical or injury scars
  • Supporting tissue regeneration and improved appearance of scar tissue
  • Relieving pain or sensitivity around the scar
  • Improving flexibility and restoring range of motion
  • Helping prevent long-term complications caused by restricted tissue
  • Enhancing circulation and supporting overall healing

When Scar Work Helps Most

Scar Work Therapy is most effective for:

  • Recent surgical scars (after medical clearance)
  • Longstanding scars that cause discomfort or tightness
  • Post-mastectomy, C-section, or orthopedic surgery recovery
  • Scar tissue that limits daily movement or athletic performance

Anyone looking to improve comfort and mobility after healing from surgery or injury

Frequently Asked Questions About Scar Work Therapy

Is scar work therapy painful?
No. Scar work is performed with gentle techniques designed to soften and mobilize tissue without causing pain. Most clients describe it as comfortable and even relieving.

How soon after surgery can I begin scar work?
This depends on your doctor’s clearance. In most cases, therapy can begin once the incision is fully closed and healed. Our therapists will work carefully to ensure safety and effectiveness.

Will scar work make my scar disappear?
Scar therapy does not erase scars, but it can make them softer, less noticeable, and more flexible. The main goal is to restore comfort and improve mobility while supporting healthy tissue regeneration.

“I’ve been experiencing pain and stiffness in my arms and hands and was concerned it was something serious, irreversible or required surgery to correct. After 1 session with Neil at Muscleeze the pain and stiffness were gone for a solid 3 weeks. I believe with regular visits every 3-4 weeks I will remain pain free and possibly reverse the cause – without drugs or surgery. Definitely a win in my book!”

“I have been a massage therapist and bodyworker for over 30 years. I have never in my life had an experience like this in my life. Neil was kind enough to make a house call as I couldn’t get away from work. The technique he uses, I believe it’s called the Rosseter Technique, gave me almost instantaneous relief to a hip problem I’ve had for years. I have seen him many times since. He is courteous, respectful, and beyond professional. I will return again and again and I highly recommend him and his services.”
