Mindful care for all bodies.

Each person's journey is unique. Mindful massage therapy extends beyond traditional approaches to embrace the diversity of individual experiences. One specialized modality is Scar Work, a therapeutic technique designed to address and support the healing of scars resulting from surgeries or injuries.

What is Scar Work?

Scar Work is a gentle and specialized form of massage therapy that focuses on the treatment of scars. Whether you have scars from surgeries, injuries, or other life experiences, Scar Work aims to improve the function, appearance, and overall well-being of the affected tissues. Therapists use a combination of manual techniques to help alleviate adhesions, reduce discomfort, and enhance the mobility of the scarred area.

Gender-Affirming Care:

In addition to its therapeutic benefits for physical healing, Scar Work plays a crucial role in gender-affirming care. For individuals who have undergone gender-affirming surgeries, scars can be a significant part of their journey. Scar Work sessions are tailored to address the unique needs of transgender and non-binary individuals, providing a safe and supportive space for healing and empowerment.

Embracing Personal Journeys:

Scar Work sessions are conducted with utmost respect for your identity and personal history. Through compassionate and individualized care, I aim to create an environment where you can feel heard, respected, and supported on your path to self-affirmation.

The Benefits:

Improved Mobility: Scar Work helps improve the flexibility and range of motion around scarred areas.

Reduced Discomfort: Gentle massage techniques can alleviate discomfort and sensitivity in and around scars.

Enhanced Appearance: Some clients will notice the aesthetic healing of their scars. Tho this is not always the goal of scar work, it can contribute to a sense of physical and mental healing.
