Scar Tissue . . . Not Breakable but Changeable! (New Jersey)
Instructor, Cathy Ryan, takes you through the science of scar tissue formation and the impact of manual therapy on scar tissue. This class will take place in Milltown, NJ in May, 2024
Scars are not obligated to be problematic. Scar tissue ‘constructs’ us back together when tissue integrity has been interrupted. If the regulatory mechanisms that guide this process go askew, problematic scars can form.
This course will endeavour to answer burning questions like, what is going on in there and what can my hands do about it? We will explore the primary systems and factors that influence wound healing and scar formation and dive into how massage/manual therapy (during the process) can influence better healing outcomes and how to facilitate productive changes after scars have formed.
Science/evidence is Cathy's jam, so there will be science …. and a healthy dose of heart, humour and hands on!
This course is designed for massage therapists, physical therapists, occupational therapists and any healthcare provider who uses manual therapy in their practice.
