Scars of all kinds can benefit from this unique approach. Whether your scar is the result of an accident, surgery, burn, injury, C-section, mastectomy, or radiation, ScarWork can help restore comfort, movement, and ease.
Gentle, Painless Therapy for Scars
ScarWork is a hands-on, gentle, and pain-free technique created by Sharon Wheeler that helps reintegrate scar tissue into the body’s fascial web. After treatment, scars often feel softer, freer, and more functional—with less pulling on surrounding areas. Many people experience immediate, profound changes, sometimes even after their very first session.
Scars can create:
• Numbness or pain
• Tightness and pulling on surrounding tissue
• Fluid accumulation
• Restricted movement
• A feeling of being “stuck” or blocked in healing
ScarWork gently transforms these symptoms, allowing the body to regain fluidity and ease. Even scars that are decades old can respond beautifully to this work. As long as the wound is fully healed and closed, ScarWork is appropriate.
Why ScarWork?
Many people feel hopeless about their scars and assume the changes are permanent. ScarWork shows otherwise—proving that scar tissue can soften, release, and re-integrate into the body. For some, the results are not only surprising but life-changing.
Clients often report:
• Softer, smoother scar texture
• Greater range of motion
• Improved comfort and function
• A renewed sense of connection with their body
