Scar tissue is formed by Collagen (a protein found in muscles, bones, and other tissues)

In healthy tissues, the Collagen that develops, aligns to give your tissues strength. However, the collagen cells that form in response to an injury connect at random. This sporadic layering leads to the buildup of scar tissue; this can cause pain and lack of tissue extensibility.

Some benefits of scar tissue massage include:

1. Decrease amount of scar tissue build-up. Excess scar tissue can make muscles stiff and slightly weaker.
2. Improve blood flow, promoting healing and the scar’s pliability.
3. Drains excess fluid to reduce swelling and proliferation.
4. Helps regain feeling in the area and decrease numbness, tingling, soreness.
5. Increases range of movement and the scar’s flexibility. This makes movements feel less restrictive and “tight”.
