Scar Release Assessment or Reassessment
About the treatment:
Cesarean section scars can lead to pain and tightness which can impact your abdominal strength, blood flow to the area, posture, hips and back. Some scarring can also cause pain with sex (dyspareunia) and bladder urgency issues.
For this therapy, we use the Dolphin Neurostim™ which uses Microcurrent Point Stimulation (MPS) therapy to effectively help release the scar and decrease cesarean section pain. Simultaneous application of a safe low level electrical impulse is applied to each side of the cesarean scar to relax and fade scar tissue, which can hinder muscles and fascia function and cause pain. This technology is approved by Health Canada and the FDA and you should be able to see and feel a significant change in the scar during your first appointment.
The Benefits:
- Speeds up the healing process of the scar, muscle and fascia
- Decreases pain in the connective tissue
- Helps to relax and fade scar tissue
- Releases the scar tightness which will increase blood circulation and lymph drainage to help the body in the healing process
- Your increased mobility and decreasing your pain will improve your ability to recover and take the best care of your baby and family
Frequently Asked Questions
How soon after my cesarean section should I book?
Healing after a cesarean section takes time. After about 6-8 weeks, we encourage you to book a 60-minute initial assessment and treatment. At this appointment, your practitioner will complete a health history, provide an assessment and conduct your first scar tissue release therapy treatment.
I have had my scar for a while, is it too late to book?
You can start cesarean section scar tissue release therapy anytime. Even scars 10-20 years old can be treated!
Can I be pregnant?
No. The Dolphin Neurostim™ should never be used during pregnancy. Other contraindications include regions with tumours/cancer or on persons with a cardiac pacemaker.
Can I have scar release therapy if I am planning to have another cesarean section in the future?
Yes. The scar release therapy can release and heal your current scar tissue and help your next scar heal much easier and faster. You will likely feel a decrease in tightness and discomfort of scar tissue during your second pregnancy.
How many sessions will I need?
Each scar is different so your registered practitioner will be able to further guide you regarding this during the initial assessment appointment but it shouldn’t take more than a few sessions.
Is this therapy covered by my extended health insurance?
A Chiropractic Doctor provides the therapy as part of a clinical assessment and treatment. Your appointment will be billed under chiropractic care and a receipt will be provided to you to submit to your insurance provider. Please check with your insurance provider if you have any questions about specific coverage.
Can scar release therapy help to treat any other types of scars?
Absolutely! The Dolphin Neurostim™ is used to also effectively treat scarring that resulted from many different surgeries including hysterectomy, breast reduction, appendectomy, and other surgeries leaving a scar (such as knee, hip, shoulder and more). Contact us to learn more!
