When can I start treatment?
Your scar must be free of stitches and/or staples, and it must be infection free, have no heat or inflammation or be weeping.
​
Generally treatment can start from 6 weeks, but scars of any age, can benefit from this therapy.
LymphaTouch is a versatile and effective medical device that provides relief for various health problems and promotes the body’s own healing process.
​
The negative pressure and mechanical vibration of the LymphaTouch® device can effectively soften fibrotic and scar tissue adhesions, improving tissue elasticity, flexibility and joint range of motion.
​
LymphaTouch® treatment promotes oxygenation and lymphatic drainage of the treated area, which can contribute to wound healing and prevent adhesions. The device treatment can be started on the day of surgery. LymphaTouch® offers an effective and comfortable way to treat both fresh and older scars.
Scar Treatment
Our work with scars is mainly hands on. We use very gently motions to work with the scar and the underlying tissue that is causing a problem. We do use equipment, when appropriate, which could be Lymphatouch, Shockwave, needles, tape. Nothing is done without your consent, after being fully informed of what we advise, and its benefits.
​
Regardless of how old your scar is, its size, its location, it is highly likely that we can help to loosen the tightness, reducing pain and gain you some normal sensitivity. Every scar is individual to you, and so will be your response to treatment. Unfortunately we cannot give time scales on how quickly your body may respond.
