C-Section Scar Massage

  • Anyone who has had a C-section who wants to help their scar recover optimally, or is experiencing any of the symptoms below and wants to prevent any future issues.

  • If you have pain, numbness, sensitivity, tightness, pulling or tension at the scar site, an overhang and/or want help improving the appearance of your scar and coming to terms with the way it looks. 

    Your scar could also be contributing to;

    • back pain

    • hip pain

    • incorrect breathing patterns

    • constipation

    • pelvic floor issues

    • urinary urgency

    • pain during sex

    • fertility issues and more.

    C-section massage can help relieve these issues.

  • Using specialist scar massage techniques, we work gently to release tension and restrictions caused by the scar on and around the scar area as well as any areas of the body away from the scar site that may be affected. We work on your abdomen with you respectfully and at a pace that works for you, to enable your scar tissue to move more freely, giving you less restricted movement and pain and help you to reconnect with the area and recover from birth.

    You will leave with some scar massage techniques and scar care advice specific to your C-section scar to enable you to continue your recovery at home.

  • As soon as your scar is healed. We recommended coming to us from 10-12 weeks after your birth but if you’re unsure if your scar is ready, please get in touch.

    Your scar can take up to two years to reach maturity, so we can still help the way it heals and forms within this time.

    If your scar is older than this, it’s definitely not too late to come for a scar treatment. Scar issues can still be improved years later. We have had success stories with scars well over 10 years old.

  • This treatment can be offered as a stand-alone treatment or you can add on a postnatal massage as well.

    We recommend a 60-minute treatment for a C-section scar massage. If you would like to also have a postnatal massage included please select a 90-minute treatment. Most scars require a minimum of 3 treatments. Please select from the options below.

Hannah West has trained with both Jenny Burrell in abdominal and C-Section Scar Massage and with Emma Holly in Sharon Wheelers Scar Work. She has also completed her Oncology Massage training with Susan Findley.

“So glad my physio referred me to Hannah following my c-section birth. Hannah has worked with me to really minimise my scarring (which was in quite a state initially!) I’m so pleased with the progress!”
