Surgical Scar Treatment in Winnipeg
WHAT YOUR DOCTOR DIDN'T TELL YOU ABOUT SCAR TISSUE
Professional scar therapy that addresses what's happening beneath the surface.
Your Scar Goes Much Deeper Than What You Can See
Every surgical scar creates restrictions through multiple layers:
-
Adhesions pulling on organs and tissues
-
Fascial restrictions limiting movement
-
Nerve disruption causing pain or numbness
-
Compensation patterns affecting your whole body
-
Internal scarring you can't see or feel directly
These hidden effects can cause problems months or years after surgery—in areas that seem completely unrelated.

What Makes Surgical Scars Different
The Hidden Web of Restrictions
The osteopathic approach recognizes scars as a serious drag on your body's ability to function. Surgical scars are the deepest, going right through the body and creating a web of restrictions.
What's Really Happening:
-
Layer 1-2: Skin and superficial fascia - visible scar
-
Layer 3-4: Deep fascia and muscle - movement restrictions
-
Layer 5-6: Organ attachments - functional problems
-
Layer 7+: Nervous system effects - pain and sensitivity
Without treatment, these layers can adhere to each other, creating pulling sensations and dysfunction far from the original surgery site.
