Scar Tissue 101 - How Scar Tissue Affects the Body

Learn how scar tissue impacts the body from international scar tissue expert, Marjorie Brook, LMT. She has spent over 20 years specializing in scar tissue.
To some people, scars are trophies or war wounds to be proud of (there are even Facebook pages of people showing off their scars), but for others, scar tissue is a source of physical pain or a reminder of traumas that they wish to forget.And for others, they are something they have already forgotten and are unaware of how it is affecting their body. For these people, the scars are so forgotten they don’t even get listed on medical history forms. Six out of ten women who come into my practice who had a c-section do not consider their c-section a surgical procedure. Most people are aware of how scars impact the physical appearance of the body but most fail to recognize how scars impact their body internally. The truth of the matter is scars, and the restrictions they cause, can affect every system of the body. Recognizing this is the key to unlocking mysterious pain and other issues that have been interfering with the body’s ability to function and balance. Marjorie Brook, LMT discusses how scar tissue forms, misinformation surrounding scar tissue and the goal of scar tissue release therapy and scar tissue massage.
